Ohh 😕 I have been reading a few different threads on this. Still researching what will be good for me..

I see

You still with me ? Anyone ?? 👋

Question: what parts do I need to do the 'two headlights always on' ? Does it take a special harness 👍 (preferred) to get 'em nice? I read a post here off Google about this,but so far not sure where it is.

Okay, did a 50/50 mix with two qts of distilled water & white vinegar,at first. I then followed it up with 4 flush cycles using only distilled water; by draining it cold,then filling it up with the distilled water,starting it up until 205 degrees,then shut it off until 125 degrees and draining...

The PO/Original owner looks to have just driven it for 14,000+ miles,with no service done 🥵 Just ride,add gasoline and ride some more;I should have offered $500 less The PO's son told me 🤥 some stuff about him "he always takes very good care of his things" :rolleyes: I don't know how much longer...

I want to sit-up a little more,but still tuck at speed;I'm 6'1". I like the standard height bars. I want to get a windscreen for my FZ6 S2 that allows less turbulent wind to flow around me;to cleanly slice through the wind blast,rather than mounting a flat as a board type screen which can create...

Yes, I see that dampers and special washers;not sure what type of rubber they use,but it's way too soft. I always ride with my weight 'on the pegs': 'loading the pegs' for control. I like the idea you mentioned in an above post about using all-steel washers,rather than the other OEM Yamaha...

This bike is a small workhorse;I'm putting another set of rear shocks on it soon,and,yeah I think I better wash it :) The engine is made from 82' XL125S cases & 6 speed trans and the crank & top-end from an 83' XL200R. This bike sits outside in my parking space(along with two other bikes)which...

Thank you very much tuning-forks ! :)👍

Have you tried removing all the rubber dampers and replacing them with washers ? How many separate rubber cushion/dampers do they use in each side of these 'flexible flyer' style 'comfort pegs' ? I'll do anything to make mine fully solid. A little vibration is fine;I don't need rubber damping...

Sacramento traffic w/ lots of road construction can be stressful. I imagine I can get a good price online somewhere;I haven't looked because I always hunt for a brick n' mortar shop first.

The bike is surprisingly stable with weight on that rack. I'm doing lot's of laundry,and a few large bungee cords pulls the bag down.

The luggage racks are made from vintage CCA 3-piece luggage top rack which is 12x12",and I had them joined to BMW Airhead hardbag lower mounts. I would much rather have a luggage system,than not;aluminum would be much preferred.

I like that Very Much 👍 ;) I'm considering a 3-piece luggage system with large hardbags that're sturdy;I would like to find a good combination of lower racks for the bags and a mount for the top case which I can install a top-plate exactly like yours. I really enjoy running 2 wheels 98% of the...

Gary, I like your Suzuki Savage Race Replica.

I have a Service book on the way,should give me more info on service items;the PO didn't keep-up with it,but I'm going to turn that around w/ my bike ownership. I'm looking for the proper Yamaha model # so I can get the correct paper copy OEM Owner's Manual. Can I get the exact model # of my FZ6...

Gary, especially the coolant,yes;my guess is that the bike hadn't had anything like the coolant changed,plugs,etc. I plan to give this bike everything it needs. I imagine I have most of the tools,although a pair of pliers,etc? might be missing I have plenty of other tools to work on it;I hope...

This is what I found under the seat of my FZ6: what tools am I missing from the kit ?
