Ok, I'll try that first. Thanks!

Ok, I'll do it where the adjustment nut is by the frame and see if I can change it a bit, Thanks!

2006 FZ6 - My clutch starts to grab at the very end of the lever travel or when the clutch lever is almost all the way out. I would like it to grab after about a 1/2 inch or so of letting it out ( not sure what is supposed to be normal ? ) How does one do this? I think it might help a bit with...

Thanks for the quick replys to all!

I noticed after I took the bars off, when reinstalling the clamps have a little arrow on each clamp. Are those supposed to point toward the front of the bike? I assume so but I just thought I would ask to make sure. Thanks!

I think the main thing that bugs me is the clunky tranny. My little GS 500 shifted just by thinking about it. Guess I got spoiled. The seat could be nicer but doesn't seem to bad. I'm kinda getting use to the on-off thing. Overall I think the bike is a killer value, the overall quality seems...

I have never gone above 8K in the 6 months I have owned her. That is fast enough for me, but it's nice to know I can kick arse if I ever wanted too!:thumbup: I still don't understand why some people call this a good beginner bike, it's a sleeper:D

Is there any easy way to test this thing to see if it's working? It spins freely but I have never heard it. I saw in some threads you have to find the connectors (buried) and ground them somehow. How about if I just let it idle away for awhile, would it come on in say 10-15 minutes. I'm just...

Buy a motorhome with an MC rack on the back for my Dual sport and blow!! Oh ya, and I'll take the wife to! Invest the rest for the kids!

Mmmm, I have some Cortechs that have those straps in the back. I wrap them around the turn signals. Last night I built a simple aluminium bracket that uses existing bolt holes. The holes are the ones that bolt the lic. bracket to the frame. They are the farthest ones forward under the rear...

Yep, killer deal! I have the fast red 06 model!

Yep, mine has the Battery tender connection hook-up. I bought the power outlet that has a 8 foot cord that plugs right into the Tender connector / trickle charger. I wrapped up the extra cord inside a bicycle inner tube and zipped tied it under the triple clamp. If I need a utility light or...

Valves maybe?:confused:

Mmmmm, I'll try that! Thanks!

Ok, guess all is normal. I got so spoiled with my GS 500, just touch it a little and bang next gear. No biggy just a change! Thanks to all for the quick feedback, like I said great forum, great people:thumbup:
