Hello, I have a K&N air filter and it's time to clean it. I managed to only get the K&N large can oil spray and was wondering on how to clean it. I've seen many recommending for and against diesel/gas/soap/brake cleaners. Is there anything that's readily available for this task? I'd like to...

Hello everyone, I noticed something odd last two weeks. Whenever I do an engine brake I can hear a metallic rattling from the engine. At first I thought that the the chain is acting up but it's slack is proper, and greased. So the sound must come from the engine. It has a short duration, but...

This was broken since I bought the bike but did manage to put another orange plastic over the lightbulb and covered it with tape. That fell off after one year so I'm looking to get it back to stock :) I also accept donations with me paying for transport. I think that you can take off only the...

Crazy thing, I washed my bike last days and today when I rode it to work I noticed that my dashboard wouldn't show anything, just some random traces. Worst thing is that I have to rely on my common sense regarding speed, and that is always a bad idea :) I took off the dash board and I noticed a...

Hi guys. I'm having this problem, it seems that the bike dosn't feel right at low speeds. Tends to go left or right, but it's not really bad. It all happened after I put my racetech springs. When I did that I also replaced the steering head bearings. At first it was really bad. So I then...

I went to a local garage and got oil and filter to change them. When I got home I noticed that the new filter is shorter and a bit wider. It is a Mann filter and after checking their website it states a single filter model for all FZ6. Do both versions of FZ6 use the same type of filter? I mean...

My horn is wimpy and I am looking for something more serious. At one time there was a slow fella on the 3rd lane running at 30mph in a 60 zone so I decided to give him the horn. He didn't move a muscle. Maybe he was playing loud music or something. Anyway, he saw the flashes in the mirror and...

I've been wondering about this. Of course, I am thinking for commuting or offroad use, not performance. Are there any options available or projects that you know of? It would be interesting.

Hi all I just got the Cobra brake lines kit, racing type (2 lines to each caliper on the front). Since I only had money for the front part only from the known manufacturers I decided to go for a complete kit from Cobra after reading some nice reviews. It seems that they buy the stuff from Hel...

In a few hours I'm going to leave towards my second bike :cheer: I decided to get a dr650se to prepare for an Africa tour that I want to plan in a couple of years. I decided to go for a cheap bike, able to handle the rough terrain there, simple tech so I can fix most stuff that could go...

Hi guys. Time to change the stock tires on my '04 :) Only has 13k km on board and most of them were put last season. Bike has been put away for a few years. First I was thinking of BT016 Pro as they are sticky and I like our nice mountain roads but now that I have the cash I'm trying to get the...

Hi guys! Still waiting for my front Racetech springs to arrive. Now I'm thinking to adjust the rear shock somehow. All I saw were 800$ products. Is there any solution that can be done within a 200$ limit? I saw someone managed to do a R6 rear shock adaptation to FZ6. Is that reliable? Could...

I just stumbled upon this site: LASER 'X-treme' Exhaust System (Special) (2 x 100 mm) for the YAMAHA FZ6/S FAZER 2004-2007 | FosterRAD Laser Exhaust Systems Does anyone have any info on this exhaust system? Like more photos, videos, reviews etc? Here's the data sheet...

Hi guys. I'm looking to upgrade my wobbly front suspension and for money reasons I chose to upgrade the front springs. I know that if I wait for some time I might find a good deal on R6 shocks but this mod would also need some other parts and I'm not looking for a race feel of the bike, only to...

Hi all. Weather seem to be clearing here and I'm starting to get the bike up&running for the new season. For this I ordered a month ago fz1 bars. I called a local (crappy) Yamaha dealership and specified that I want the bars for the latest model of FZ1. They orcourse got me the older model, and...

I wonder if they have a fz6 like this: Lazareth Supercharged Yamaha FZ1

Seems like it's called Iphone 4s. Same design as 4, new processor (A5) 64gb variant, 8mp camera with 1080p video (nice) and 14.4mbps modem. I think they improved the battery life as well. For me it doesn't justify an upgrade from iphone 4. What do you think?

My mirrors just arrived today, and I made some time to install them on the bike. I got them from the guys that sell those levers on ebay. They also have a website and I found the mirrors for 69.99$ with free shipping! Took about 2 weeks for delivery but they arrived in perfect shape. There are...

I just reseted my fz6 (removed battery :) ) because the weather changed the last 2 weeks and instead of 280-280 km per tank now I get 250 if that... So thought about reseting the whole computer inside (never did it before and had the TPS problem for 2000 km). Thinking of adapting to new density...
