    keep or bin?

    Keep it. I don't think it's too big at all, and from the profile (side) looks really uniform. If it was deep blue, I'd tell you it was too big and gangly and them make a lowball offer :) Scorp Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Service manual - 2009 FZ6, US

    I think OP meant service manual. Owners manual can be downloaded off yamaha site. I got 2007 service manual (works for 2009) of of boneman's site here: http://www.bonemanfz6.com/mods.htm Scorp Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Weird front tire issue

    My stock Bridgestone did that as well, and I noticed it at 6K, too. When I got the PR2's on, the front end felt soooo much smoother. Scorpio --- - Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    What's your Xbox gamertag?

    How accurate are those police mph things on bikes??

    Neither. Your speedo will always read a little higher. Usually between 7-10% from what I've seen. Mine is around 8% higher. You can get a Speedohealer or other device to correct this from the factory but I just have learned to subtract about 10% if I need to be careful of speed. Scorpio...

    CBR600RR single exhaust on my 2005 FZ6.

    Couldn't agree more. Your project is really looking solid. I bet some of those that have followed your lead on the single can might be interested in that mesh as well. --- - Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    CBR600RR single exhaust on my 2005 FZ6.

    This looks so much better. Paint/coat it matte black or match the blue and that could be the shiznit. :) Scorp --- - Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    I'll be replacing steering bearings, what else?

    Mine came out to .97 so I went with the 1.0 as they told me to "round up". I have only a fraction of the diving under braking that I used to with the new sprigs and 10w oil. The shocks are a little slower to rebound and you feel bumps a lot more, but the bike just tracks beautifully. Scorp...

    For sale: Sidi boots $75

    Oh you guys are killing me. I just bought some AS ridge boots a week ago for $100. Would have bought these in a heartbeat. :( --- - Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Hissling noise when leaned in turns

    Mine does this as well. To me, sounds like the timing chain when I'm leaning on right handers, but it sounds exactly like you describe when leaning on both sides Scorp --- - Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    MPG, only getting 40 consistantly....

    My '09 averages 39 on it's life thus far; no matter how I ride it's always really close. I'm 220 so that probably doesn't help either :) I don't know how others do it. :) Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    New to FZ6 - Good deal?

    Welcome! I'd say 20k is definitely not too high. Many members will tell you the same thing. Assuming it has been well kept/serviced, I'd say it's a good deal, especially with the luggage and headlight modifications. At the very least, it is worth taking a look at the bike up close. Scorp...

    FZ6 cylinder possibly misfiring

    The instructions for how much seafoam to use per gallon for maintenance and for cleaning are on the bottle, I can check when I get home. A lot of people swear by it here and use it regularly, myself included. I would also recommend disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and reconnect. Any...

    The Day of Tears

    Aw man I feel so bad for you guys. What a disgusting thing to have to find. I hope you're back riding them soon. Honestly, that is suck a weak act. Who does that? It's one of those things everyone knows you don't do, like hitting a woman or keying someone's car. They will get theirs and...

    PCV users

    All good advice. Have had it up and running for over a year and really feel that PCV is functioning well but the AT is just a hassle. Typically, though, I ride as I normally do for 100 mi or so then Accept trims. This includes my usual downshift and occasional engine braking. Maybe that's why...

    Slight subtle knocking on decel and rough running.

    I replaced mine as a shot in the dark to alleviate the noise. It didn't, but might for you. I think you're going to have to remove it to check The functioning of the tensioner. Pretty straight forward to remove. I had to remove the clutch cable holder as well as the line to the water pump in...

    I tend to agree with you on the autotune, Hellgate. I'm looking to get a tune after my vacation; just trying to find the best place. Plan on paying for at least some of it with the sale of the autotune. :) Scorp
