If you decide to take it apart, I am curious in what you find and if you can fix it. I know you can fit non-ABS part, my fear was getting stuck brakes while riding, that's why I am holding back on taking it off and opening it.

Did some reading about it, as I was considering the same, taking it apart. It's two solenoids and a couple of electromechanical valves. Most people online think it has to do with not changing the brake fluid regularly (mine sat a while before I bought it) so it is very likely, in my mind, it is...

It's a known issue, I have it as well. The ABS pumps are so fragile, they stop working at the slightest breeze. There are companies that refurbish them (google them), while a new one is around 2000 euros.... I opted to ride it like it is since it's more than half of what I paid on the bike to...

Checked the wiring, on a visual inspection nothing seems off or loose, no exposed wiring. Pretty sure the CEL did not come on, I would have noticed it while trying to start it. All the lights on the dash behaved normally, only the immob light would flash every second or so. The good part is it...

Yes, the starter engaged, the engine would turn but not start. Wierd thing is it only did it on Saturday. Had multiple start/stops since then and no issue. I have cleared the codes, if it does it again and throws the 12 code I will change the CPS. So the immob light comes on when the ECU...

Bought the bike in April and worked flawlessly since then. Yesterday when leaving home, it would turn over and not start, realised the immobiliser light was flashing on the dash. Fiddled with the key on/off and started. Thought it's just a gremlin. The same for the next start, except it took...

Final update, extremely happy with the purchase. Found the sweet spot, considerably less noise and turbulence and a lot less bugs.

Here you are :) I know some will hate, but I actually like the way it looks and enjoy riding it more without all the noise and bugs

The screen arrived yesterday, quick install and instant improvement. I only tested 2 positions so far, both at max height, one with the same angle as the stock winshield and the other one with the MRA screen vertical. In the first position not a major difference, but with the vertical one it's...

I went through a lot of reviews and finally pulled the trigger on the MRA Tour. It was the biggest one I found, it adds 15cms, more than pretty much every cheap one I found and more than the Givi touring. I will report back with results.

Just installed a pair of Ebay crash pads. They are made from aluminium, look pretty good quality and are labeled FZ6 for an extra 1hp ;)

Will check, thanks for the advice!

Final update, got it from the shop, the sound is gone. They have no clue what might have caused it, did not find anything visibly off, probably slight misalignment by the guy that put it back together after the tire replacement.

2006 FZ6 Fazer with the stock windshield. Took a long ride on the highway and I had to pull over several times to clean the dead insects from the visor. In the normal riding position (I am 180cm tall - 5.9 feet), the wind is coming straight into my chest. And leaning over the tank is not really...

Status update, it looks like the brake disc is touching on the caliper. It's in the shop now, it's possible that when I had the tires replaced, they did not install correctly the wheel spacers.

Will try, thanks

Stored indoors, 2006, 50k. Not sure what cupped sprockets are, sorry but not a native english, will google and come back.

Newbie rider and new bike (to me).2006 FZ6 Fazer. Towards the end of the video below, you can hear a grinding sound. The clutch is pulled and I am not applying the brakes. The sound is there when riding in gear as well, so I am thinking it's not the gearbox. It sounds like a bearing to me, but...

Thank you! I was also suprised at how good it looked, I thought it's been repainted but it has all the original stickers. So it looks like it was kept well.

Hi, greetings from Romania. Newbie rider here, bought my first bike a 2006 FZ6 Fazer, 44k on the odometer, really stoked and looking forward to riding it this summer.
