    Customized R6 Rear Shock

    It started almost two months ago when at a spur of the moment; I bought a R6 rear shock off eBay for $24.00. After reading jesfz6r’s post on Sportbikes.Net, I was skeptical about retrofitting the R6 rear shock, but I decided to go ahead with the modification anyhow taking cognizance of...

    What gear do you honestly use?

    Since it’s always warm where I live, except for the occasional cold front that passes in a day of two, I always wear a Alpinestars T-Monterey Air-Flo Jacket, Alpinestars 365 Gore-Tex Gloves, Armour gear keviar riding pants, shoei XR1000 helmet and Thor 50/50 riding boots. FZ6-ZN

    2006 fz6 hp

    They are all 98hp, except they limit the engine on some models to make them 78hp. There is just a throttle stop that you have to bend away and then you will have all hp again. You don't need to remove it FZ6-ZN

    When a Phillips is not a Phillips! Always use the right tool for the job

    JIS screws are 58 degrees and have a blunt point, while the Phillips screws have an angle of 55 degrees and are more pointed at the tip. Since you cannot conveniently buy a JIS screwdriver, one modification that can be made to a Phillips screwdriver is to grind off the tip of the blade...

    When a Phillips is not a Phillips! Always use the right tool for the job

    The deal with the two screws on the front brake reservoir cap is that they are a different type of Phillips known as Japanese Industrial Standard aka "JIS". A JIS screw has a dot on its head to identify it as such. Japanese and other precision-made Phillips' head screws require screwdrivers...

    K&N and Cat Elim or wait?

    I cut out the cat on my 06 when I fitted TB’s and thereafter my bike refused to idle. I had to fit db killers to get back pressure. I wouldn’t recommend removing the cat unless you intend fitting a power commander or juice box. The S2's don’t seem to have this problem, possibly because...

    almost vomitted in my helmet

    Limiters prevent damage to an engine by interrupting the power that is distributed to the spark plugs, this prevents the engine from operating above a pre-determined RPM level known as the red-line. FZ6-ZN

    Two Brothers M2 Exhaust - will it fit?

    To be quite honest, I think that the FZ6 TB Y pipe is badly designed. The almost 90 deg. bend to the LHS can restricts the exhaust flow to such an extent that most of the gases are exhausted on the RHS. I often laugh at this when I clean my bike as I believe that the FZ6 TB system is far from a...
