Hey Brian. I saw your 675. That is a sweet bike. I'm on HPC as well and that Ridesmart discount definitely helps. I will look for you at ECR in April. I'll be riding a silver R6 I'm picking up in Austin on Friday.
I loved revving my FZ up to 12-14k and hearing her scream in the straights...
I just did my first TD at MSRH on Saturday on my FZ6. I had a blast! I rode Level 1 and gained a lot of confidence and improved my riding abilities. My favorite parts were Key Hole and Bus Stop where I could really focus on leaning my bike and not being afraid to do so. I will probably be...
So I am taking a moto trip up to Michigan in a few weeks and decided to augment my girl with some goodies.
Here she is pre-op:
Previous work done on her:
Fender eliminator
Leo Vince full exhaust
Pazzo shorty levers
Post Op:
Givi Top Rack
Givi E360 Monokey Luggage Case (x3)
Givi Sidecase...
I thought I read some post or advert where you put a magnetized chunk of metal on the bottom of your headers and this would trip the sensor. Anyone heard of this?
Congrats and welcome. This site is full of all of the info you could ever want to know about the FZ6. The posters are knowledgeable and very helpful.
My one piece of advice... stay away from the FZ6 Mods section! Once you start browsing it, you will stay there for days like I did.
The...
I had cash in hand to buy a naked 2006 SV650 and went with my friend (rides a 919) to pick it up and the owner had sold it. I was depressed.... that is until we went to Stubbs Cycle in Houston just to look and I sat on a FZ6. I fell in love with the looks and ergos. They wanted too much for...
Right now it is my pleasure ride but as soon as I get a few months of riding experience I plan to start some short highway jaunts working my way up to commuting to my job 25 miles from home.
That vid sealed it for me! I am painting my 2008 Black FZ6 to have a white tank and front fender when I go naked. I hope I can get the light and signals from the XJ6 for my bike! :rockon:
I ran the test on my 2008 FZ6 with about 6230 on the odometer. I got 16 for closed and 103 for full open.
1. Can the TPS be adjusted or does it have to be replaced?
2. Would having a Leo Vince exhaust installed impact this setting? Is it related?
3. Can I do this myself?
Thanks...
Yet ANOTHER post giving mad props to BD43 and his dual headlight cable. I ordered the cable back in January and received the part within a few days of ordering it from him but work kept me from installing it until today and I followed the picture write up and was done in about 45 minutes or so...
Wow! That looks fantastic. I have a black 08 and hope to repaint it sometime down the line when I go naked. I am thinking of keeping it all black minus painting the tank either white or orange.
More pics!
Great job!
Hello everyone. My name is Joe from Houston, Tx and I have been lurking on the forums for a bit while I was researching bikes. I was looking at the SV650 and the FZ6. I had ridden my friend's Honda 919 after I had taken the MSF course and got my M endorsement on my license and though I had no...
