    No more FZ6

    Sold the FZ6 and decided to step into the world of dual sports. Here's my newest bike. It's an 08 DR-z400s. Has 52k miles, but the engine was rebuilt around 15k ago. Hell, even if it wasn't, it's a thumper. I can rebuild the top end with a few hundred dollars and a couple of hours. Lot's...

    Seat cowl

    Anybody have experience with one of these? https://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-FZ-6-Fazer-Rear-Cover/dp/B01N6X6ZCE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487024255&sr=8-1&keywords=fz6+seat+cowl Looks like a TCP knock off. Was thinking of giving it a shot, but doesn't look like an authorized seller and ships from...

    Riding in the cold - approaches

    Where I'm at it doesn't get that cold for that long so down in the lower 40's is the coldest I've ridden in. The biggest issue is blocking the wind. That being said, the most effective piece of gear I have for staying warm is a one piece rain suit. No wind gets through that thing. With it on, I...

    Can anyone confirm if the CR9EIX is the correct spark plug for a 2009 FZ6 S2?

    Question about the flooding. On a car I've always pulled the plugs, disconnected the fuel pump, (or pull fuse), and crank it over to blow fuel out of the cylinder. Then hit the plugs with compressed air, put it together, and start it up. Shouldn't be an issue doing that on a bike huh? I ask...

    Repair Fairing, go naked, or mod to S2?

    The only times not having a fairing bothers me is when it's cold, or I happen to be going over 100, (which isn't very often).

    Exhaust question

    That white FZ6 they have listed on their website is pretty damn sweet looking. I want to know where they got the block off plate for the subframe, with the side exhaust and if you can buy that.

    Getting all of the bugs out, and loving this FZ6!

    Nice looking bike. I'm curious, how many miles and how much did you pay for it? Looking to sell/trade mine and wondering what people are paying for them.

    Headlight relay

    It's been like that for almost a year now and I can't even remember, will have to take it apart and look. It's the one that turns the lights off during cranking. Either way, thanks for the link. Exactly what I need once I get the right relay.

    Headlight relay

    Can anybody give me the part number for the headlight relay? Mine stopped working a while back so I installed a jumper in the wire and bypassed it, I no longer have the relay though and am thinking about selling/trading my bike so I want to fix it right.

    opinions on possible buy

    Thanks for looking out. Thats a nice bike and all, but my next one will have a full fairing and clip-ons. I went and looked at it today and was ready to buy it. Told him I'd bring the money and pick it up monday, but there was another guy at work looking for a bike that begged me to let him buy...

    opinions on possible buy

    As far as the rear wheel, found out it's not bent from being hit or wrecked. He didn't know until he sprayed soapy water on it to figure out where it kept leaking. Found the spot and saw the lip was barely noticeably bent out. He thinks the place that changed the tire last did it. But yeah...

    opinions on possible buy

    Didn't necessarily mean that's what this bike was worth, just the low end of what I see these bikes are selling for. I wouldn't buy it without checking it out though. That's the the most expenses (known) things though, (fairing, wheel/tire), and I can get them for around $800. I would do all of...

    opinions on possible buy

    Might buy an 08 CBR1000RR with 15k miles from a guy at work. He picked it up from where he used to live a few months ago and said he had some work to do on it then he'd be ready to ride with me. Today I asked him if he had it ready yet, to which he replied he didn't have the time energy or...

    New Yamaha YZF600R Thundercat 98 owner

    I had a thundercat before this motorcycle. Was a good motorcycle. You should join the forum mentioned earlier, lots of 600r knowledge on there. I still check it out every once in a while. My carbs looked different than the ones you posted a few posts back, and I never seperated them like that...

    Laid it down the other day

    So the other morning on my way to work I'm getting ready to make a left turn off of a one way street. I had an suv in front of me so I couldn't see anything ahead. The suv and the the car ahead of it go through the turn. The pedestrian crosswalk had the flashing hand with about ten seconds on...
