The manual says 72 ft/lbs. When you stripped yours, what was the setting on your torque wrench?

Not sure what you are looking for. The Black wire is the chassis ground for both the Tail/License plate light (Blue) and the Brake light (Yellow).

I fear for his mind!!!!

Never had this on the FZ, but had something very similar on my 06 FJR. Very similar bike, just bigger. You need to check ALL the interconnected hoses on the throttle body, not just the one that goes to the sensor. The other hoses and fittings are very small and prone to clogging. On my FJ...

Ugh

Instead of a new crush washer, try one of these. https://www.fumotousa.com/ I put one on my 05 many years ago and it it great for a number of reasons. First, draining the oil is now a simple and clean operation. You can attach some tubing and pipe the old oil into a container without...

I successfully did the COP mod on my 2005 FZ6, using FZ07 coils. According to Buzzbomb (where I got the idea from), you need to avoid certain R6 coils as they are CDI. If you are going to replace your coils, you might want to look for FZ07s.

Yabba dabba doo! I like it!

Never thought of that. I have Delkevics on my FJR and I love the tone, but they are louder than I like. I'm going to give that a try. Thanks Gary

I put the Dominator's on a few years ago. https://www.dominator-exhausts.nl/dominator-exhausts-yamaha-fz6-fazer-2004-2010.html The bracketry is good and the sound is wonderful.

This would make sense IF the neutral switch was unplugged or busted.

Actually, I took a different approach. A LONG time ago (2015) I sent my headers to Jet Hot Coatings (NC I think). Had them cleaned and coated in a bright silver. The pic below was taken 4 years ago, They look just as good today. They still need to be cleaned occasionally, but the are ALWAYS...

Whatever Scott uses!!!!!! :)

Welcome. It never ceases to amaze me how many new-looking FZ6s are out there. She's a beauty.

Is the 'test' function used to cycle the ABS pump so that you clear the dirty brake fluid from within? If s the FJR has a similar function.

Amen to that brother!

My FZ6 does not have ABS, but my FJR does. I have the same problem on the FJR after installing an LED light with a builtin flasher. Since the ABS module gets its signal from the brake light voltage I believe that the varying voltage in my blinking LED tail lights are causing the ABS light to...

Hmm. My schematic only shows one 'Sky Blue' wire. If that is the one, then it connects to the neutral switch.

There are 2 small hoses that connect to the tank, one on the left and one on the right. One hose vents expanding fuel vapors from the tank while the other drains spillage from the top of the fill neck. I'm betting that the vent is kinked, allowing pressure to build, forcing fuel around the...
