    Anyone mod stock exhaust to make it louder?

    Hey, thanks! I will show that to my husband. He did something similar to my Ninja and it sounded much less like a lawnmower.

    Loving the FZ6

    Joe, my husband saw that one. It looks like the Puig "touring" is even a bit taller than than. Have you seen a FZ6 with the Puig touring to compare. Either way, that's my first mod to the bike!

    Anyone mod stock exhaust to make it louder?

    And if so, how'd you do it? Does it sound good? Stock is too quiet for me and we don't have $600 laying around for an aftermarket exhaust just now. Thanks!

    Which brand/model is that one, Joe? Where did you get it? That'd be PERFECT! :thumbup:

    How fast have you ever driven fz6?

    108 indicated today. I'm sure it has a LOT more. But my previous fastest was just over 100 on my Ninja 500 and that seemed way fast on that bike!

    Loving the FZ6

    What a difference this bike makes from my Ninja 500! :D I feel way more comfortable on this bike in the twisties. The FZ just seems to want to stick and I feel way more confident. I kept up with my husband on his ZRX pretty well today riding down and up highway 38 from Big Bear to Mentone...

    Windscreens Again

    Thanks for the advice. I always wear earplugs. The taller screen would be to give me a bit more wind protection and with the stock screen the bugs shoot right under my helmet. I got one in my eye last ride; not good.

    Windscreens Again

    I'd like to get a taller aftermarket windscreen. I am 5'6" tall. I've looked but am having a hard time finding a source on line for aftermarket windscreens. Anyone have a couple of aftermarket sites that carry Givi or Zero Gravity, etc.? Does Yamaha sell a different windscreen...

    Stalling issue - Any ideas??

    Will do that as well. Have used Seafoam in the fuel but a pretty knowledgeable guy on the ZRXOA site recommends Chevron fuel system cleaner as a better option. Anything's better than nothing!

    Stalling issue - Any ideas??

    A great big thanks for that! It does idle at about 500-600, which is very low in my husband's experience. My Ninja idled at about 1400 and his ZRX at about 1200. Maybe that is the entire problem!

    Just wondering...

    the bike is bone stock with around 7K miles on it. All maintenance, what there is at under 7K miles, was done at Redlands Yamaha. Just oil changes, I suspect. Magazine reviews of the bike all mention it's buzzy. I feel it in the footpegs most of all. But it does resonate at different...

    Where's the air filter

    I went on that site. Lot's of 2007 FZ6 owner's manuals for some reason. My bike is a 2007 blue FZ6 with the half fairing. What's the model number? Thanks!

    Stalling issue - Any ideas??

    Thanks! Is the idle adjustable on a fuel injected bike? See, that's the problem with no owner's manual! Thanks for sending one. My husband ordered a Haynes manual today and I'll get the service manual and that will probably allow him to adjust some things. A friend mentioned that the...
