If your Regular fuel contains Ethanol, then it is less powerful, therefore you won't get as good mileage. Around here, the Premium fuel is about the only fuel that does not contain Ethanol, and even that fact, I am not so sure of anymore. It is really not about the Octane rating, likely just...

I rode a 2-stroke YZ250 back about 10 years now. Steering is all good. It definately comes from the drivetrain. Maybe it's just me not being used to this bike. I would love to try another FZ6 in Calgary, so I can compare. I really appreciate the feedback guys. Thanks!

Appreciating everyones responses. Sounds like I may have a normal bike. Oil is clean and topped up, chain is good. It may not be evident in the video, but the bike does actually shake when it is making this sound as well. Here is another similar vid, but the one on the previous page is...

Well, the weather has warmed up and I have a video for you troubleshooters to watch. This "shudder" is on decel only, no brakes etc. Goes away immediately when clutch is pulled in. VID-20120329-00005.3GP - YouTube Thanks

Well, I did the diagnostic on the TPS and it goes from 16 - 101. Nice and smooth and repeatable. Tried it many times. Same figures. 16 - 101. I know I could pull the clutch in at 3000, but it just does not seem right, to have to do this. I will poke around and see what else it could be and keep...

Thanks again everyone. I think a couple of people did not notice that I am decelerating when I have this problem, therefore the Hp and torque are not a factor. The bike will pull just fine from these lower RPM's, I don't have any problems when ON the throttle, it is just when I am OFF the...

Thanks for the quick replies. It happens in 3rd, 2nd or 1st gears. I know what a motor feels like, when it is getting close to stalling, but this just seems like too high of an RPM for that to happen. ( I would certainly expect it to be jerky below 1500 RPM or there-abouts ) The Sea Foam or...

New to the forum and the site today, I hope someone can help a newbie. Just bought a 2006 FZ6. (only 4700 Km on the ODO) Minty. It's my first streetbike, after riding off-road with a YZ. I was able to take it out the other day for the first time and bike was fantastic. Very smooth and...
