So… the RF appears to have worked. I now only notice the problem when the bike is cold. As soon as the rpm bar stops flashing, it's good to go. Thanks everyone!

It was a bit over in my case... My brother brought it to a dealer near him before he sold it to me... I incorrectly assumed they knew what they were doing... In either case. The RF is what my dealer said we'd try after the tps. Run a double shot for 500 miles or so, he said.

Just a quick update... Dealer let me take the bike home while he waits for the tps. He had mentioned that overfilling the oil can do this, and indeed, it was overfilled. After making a mess in the garage, it's now filled perfectly. If this was part of the problem, it will need to be burnt off...
No, I didn't link anything.. Those links are ads. Avoid those like the plague. They usually have 2 lines under them and pop up a box if your mouse touches them, even without clicking.

Apparently the TPS part has been superceded 3-4 times. He thought I may be on the second revision. Mines an 04 though... Idk what yours would be at.
And yeah, most of the time the bike is fine, it's just from low in the rpms where it gets sluggish. WOT to red line it pulls great. Just slow on...
I just spoke with the dealer and he's ordered a tps. He said he's had them test fine and still be faulty. Last thing would be carbon build up due to overfilling the oil.

Checked the TPS... Everything was fine there. If it's fuel related, I don't really want to mess with it too much. I think my local Yamaha dealer is a pretty good and reasonable place, so when I was picking up the bolts I ran the situation by them... I showed it to them and he asks if it has any...
Hey guys, I’m back… Changed the plugs, and though some of them looked a little off, the problem remains.
It very well could be a lean condition, but I’m not going to mess with the fuel system at this point… I may just bring it in if it’s something with that.
My question would be, if it...
It sounds like I have a great starting point here, thank you everyone! It looks like I'll be changing the plugs and have some additives to try. As an aside, it doesn't throw black smoke and it feels like it's just running dry.. Leaning out sounds exactly right. I'll report back with my findings...
I'm headed to the dealer tonight to pick up a bolt (one's missing from the fuel tank)... I'm going to see if they'll look it up for me while I'm there. My VIN has been punched on the head of the frame, which I thought indicated that the recall had been completed... I'm operating under the...
Hey guys,
I'm new to the forums and the FZ6...
I'll start by saying that the bike's great so far. This is the only problem I've been able to find, really.
The bike starts fine, and if I'm slow on the throttle at first, everything's good. If I, for instance, wanted to spin the wheel in...
