Hi All Well on the weekend while doing a oil/filter change i decided it was also time to put some fresh new clutch plates in. (My baby has 135,000km up and most of them have been hard on the clutch) So i tracked down a good deal on a EBC Street Racer Kevlar friction plates and heavy duty...

Hi All Have not posted on here in ages. Have been having far too much riding of course Well recently i had my baby girl (2008 FZ6N) start having an issue where intermittently (maybe 1 in 3) times when i would go to start her while she was warm/hot I get just a relay/solenoid click and NO...

Did an upgrade a while back - what do you think? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9oIG5T8lqs

Hi all Well the time has come to replace my steering head bearings. The knocking under brakes and also >140kmh is now getting very concerning. I have just clocked up 56000kms and the bike has spent a lot of time in the rain so its no surprise they are stuffed. So i have a 2008 FZ6N and...

Hi All. Well i am stoked that my recent charging issues have now been resolved but as my last r/r plug was fried i am chasing just the plug so i can secure the spade terminals i have connected to the r/r now. Been looking everywhere and cannot find anybody that sells them. I have found...

Hi all. Wow - has been a troublesome few weeks for me. One day 2 weeks ago starting up my 2007 FZ6N (daily ride) i noticed that she was just slightly hesitant to crank over cold. Just enough to notice. Still started fine so i thought not much of it but then the next day it was much more...

I will confess. I having thoughts about trading my beloved 08 FZ6N in. Now i should point out -No, i am not having a baby -Yes i am buying another bike -No, it will NOT be a Harley or a Dual-Sport -Yes, it will probably be another Yami Now while i am in no way unhappy with my...

Hi all. Well i had my clutch cable snap (after 30000k) on my 2008 FZ6N earlier this week and i replaced it last night and wanted to share some tips for those who may be planning on doing the same. In a nutshell it was a breeze - took less than 25 mins from start to end. Now firstly, i only...

Hi All. Thought id just share a recent experience with you. I have just moved (permanently) to Tassie from BrisVegas and decided to ride down rather than pack my baby up in a crate with my gear. Ok, so i will admit perhaps that wasnt the best idea in mid july, but i had a blast. I allowed 4...

Hi all. I was alarmed to find yesterday that my 08 fz6 actually has suffered major wear to the right side of both tyres. The back is not too bad (still legal) but the front certainly is unroadworthy. (see pic attached) I also noticed some minor cupping on the rear tyre on the same (right) side...

Hi All. I have reconsidered my plan to go all out and upgrade to HID (for now at least) but instead I have opted to get me a 100/80w halogen bulb for my imminent road trip from brisbane to hobart in july. Here is the item http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/260517559172 The bulb is NOT one of those crap...

Hi all. I have been doing some searches online for bolt ons for the fz6 and i have found endless listings of K&N filters for the FZ6. Prices vary but it seems i can have one shipped here (Aust) for $80-90AU. I have also found some other items such as the one from BMC which claim to be a...

Hi all. Has anyone installed a HID conversion kit on the naked? I will state the lights are not bad, but in my book you can never have too much decent light when riding outside city limits. I have seen a few kits and i am very weary of the volume of nasty cheap units on ebay. One I have...

Well i wasnt stoked having to shell out $280AU for a new stand but after having one on my last bike (which i also used for commuting) i knew it was a MUST. Would have been nice if some instructions were included (instead of the very vague single diagram) but I managed to sort it out. Check out...

Hi all. Have a question for any of you that have some solid tech knowledge about the fz6. Does the 2008 FZ6N have MAP (Mass Air Pressure sensor) or MAF (Mass Air Flow sensor) Its cool. I am not making any silly mods or anything. Just curious. cheers Heath
