    If you haven't changed air filter a while, please do it :)!!

    Definitely change sooner if you ride all year round in wet and damp conditions. Changed mine at the correct time(by the book) and shall be doing the next change at half the service interval. The induction sound is definitely changed (as more air is getting in), I found that it had more...

    Tube in a Tubeless Tire

    what Erci said, plug it and keep a good eye on it. I've just plugged the front tyre and I've got one in the back that's been in there for 3000 miles with no problem no leaks Sent from my HTC One on Vodafone 4G using Tapatalk 2

    Throttle Position Sensor Issues (Are you Experiencing Poor Idle/Mileage, or Stalls?)

    Call Yamaha with the chassis number and they should confirm that it has not been done, and while you're at it register as the current owner. I knew about the TPS recall but assumed that my FZ6 Fazer S on an 07 plate wouldn't need it, but as I registered the bike when I purchased it as the...

    To buy or not to buy fz6

    Careful on that one, my FZ6 S Fazer registered in UK in April 2007 was subject to the TPS recall, always best to check with Yamaha using the VIN number, as you don't really know how long any of the FZ6 S motorcycles have sat around in Japan, shipping location, storage, dealer before first being...

    Which Oil

    Just done an oil change, I make sure it's done at the correct interval ( if not a bit early) and I always change the filter every time, don't forget the sump plug crush washer and buy a proper filter removal tool ( no a screwdriver through the filter doesn't count ) It actually take me longer...

    Body position, skill, traction (loss of), lean angle = vid to discuss

    Erci, you're right, . and I should have said before the corner (which is what I meant ... ). Most haven't worked out a 'Riding Plan' for the 'Hazard' that they are approaching. They need to use IPSGA : Information Position Speed Gear Acceleration Sent from my HTC One on Vodafone 4G using...

    Body position, skill, traction (loss of), lean angle = vid to discuss

    So here's my thoughts...... Just listening, a lot that crash going in to the corner are in too high a gear, if they were in, say 1st or 2nd then smoothly rolling off the throttle would have provided some engine breaking and could have prevented the running wide or the attempt at heavy braking...
