    My gear stinks! Should I wash it?!

    Don't know about the smell, but I took the armour out & washed mine with normal washing powder in the machine, & then it lost all its waterproofing, so did what the booklet said & sprayed it with 3M waterproofing stuff for tents & outdoor clothing & it worked a treat,all back to normal.:Flash...

    2007 gauge cluster on a 2006

    Yes you can. Easier if you buy the short wiring harness that goes with it, as you need the multi pin plug to fit, (same as r6 or fz1 but with different wiring) so you don't have to sort it yourself, the fz6 has a different system than most using the neutral indicator wire to send a squawk to...

    Your Hayabusa Thoughts?

    I seem to get to ride most of the latest toys, the latest 1340 busa being one of them, I found it handled nice, went way to fast & had brakes to die for,the speed you can achieve so quickly & easily on any of those big boys is just daunting, 200+ kph feels like nothing, be careful.

    Question about speedo km/h-mph

    I have two U.S. 04-06 speedos & both change from mph to kph by holding down the select button for 4 seconds. when you unplug them from the bike or disconnect the battery they reset to the default mph setting.you can also change the readout to a digital tachometer,checkout if all your sensors are...

    HJC IS-16 helmet?

    Have a Silver HJC IS-16 with the black/blue gothic graphics as a 2nd helmet & it seems to be a really nicely finished quality looking helmet as it should be at about $600 NZ, I was aware of the spark rating when purchased but did like the internal visor as safety feature as well as appearance as...

    O.K. I will post something soon But Its a FZ6N light & the factory headlight/speedo arrangement...

    O.K. I will post something soon But Its a FZ6N light & the factory headlight/speedo arrangement was hard to find & expensive so I made one.( cnc machinist & have the programs in case I need another) thought I would try a r6 speedo (which I got working) first because the factory big round dinner...

    Decided to go naked!

    Hey bike will surely look sweet, that headlight arrangement really looks nice & I was looking at putting it on mine a while ago, but when I inquired further found it came off a 150cc Indian Yamaha model called the fzs & apparently the beam didn't meet the required standards for my...

    2006 vs. 2007-2009 FZ6

    Have an 04 myself & mate has an 08, no difference in acceleration or fuel economy, both of us note my 04 has stronger brakes, but was second hand & may have better pads fitted. otherwise they feel the same. do like the swingarm on the later models tho, looks much nicer.

    Looking for 2007+ gauges/cluster/whatever

    07 on works on the 04-06 fine, a lot easier if you get the short harness that goes with it otherwise there are wiring diagrams on this site that will sort you out. if you don't get the small harness you need the 10 pin plug that goes into the back of the speedo (same as r6/fz1) to go with it...

    Did you replace steering head bearings?

    Yup, mine were shot (corroded) at 10,000,the 04 t0 06 used ball races,06 on use taper rollers that fit straight in,Yamaha don't supply the earlier kit anymore. the same but cheaper option if your seals are still ok is to replace the stock ball bearings with tapered bearings. here are the code...
