    Digital Gear Indicator for 07 FZ6

    I found this HealTech one on SportBikeTrackGear: HealTech Yamaha FZ6 [non-ABS] 98-12 GIPro X-Type Gear Indicator - Sportbike Track Gear I've messaged them to find out if it is a universal or plug and play version. Fingers crossed for plug and play!

    First track day!

    Nice photos! I also track my FZ6! Your riding position looks good but one tip I found to really simply help me with body position: kiss the mirror. Head farther over, lower, and more forward like you're trying to kiss the mirror. It did wonders for my position and feels so much more natural to...

    Battery dead after being on tender all winder?

    @Final Impact How specifically can I load test it? I've never done such a test. I thought keeping a battery tender on a bike all year was the best thing for the battery... Was I misled? I have one of those 2/10/50 amp charger / starters. Will this work fine on the 2amp setting to...

    Battery dead after being on tender all winder?

    2006 FZ6, year old battery stored for the winter on a battery tender. Took it out once the weather got nice, started up just like normal even after sitting for 3 months. Rode about 10 minutes and stopped at a place for 5 minutes. Tried to start her up, hear fuel pump prime once I turn the key on...

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    FinalImpact Thanks for the info, I've followed that exactly but that doesn't help. With the spacers I have a gap between my forks and wheel while at the same time my axle is too long. Now I know this is VERY hard to tell but looking at these pictures shows the OEM labeled picture of a R6S axle...

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    Here's how I did it (without success) 1. Insert shaft from left all the way so that it is flush with the left outside edge of the fork. 2. Tighten left side pinch bolt 3. Tighten end bolt to spec 4. Tighten right hand pinch bolts. Am I correct?

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    Since my post seemed to not make it here, I'm going to attempt to re-make it. Got it, left is left, right is right! when my axle is assembled (what I think is correctly) the axle sticks out about 2mm outside the fork. This makes sense since this is how the stock FZ6 goes together. I'm...

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    Why does it take so long for posts to show up? I posted 30 minutes ago and I still don't see my post... It is currently 5:33, lets see what the time stamp is of this post. Anyway, I just went out and slid the axle out the left side of the bike about half an inch, enough to let me clamp down...

    Wheel too small for R6 Mod? Spacers not fitting? Please help!

    Sorry this is a duplicate thread, see my thread over in MODS. Why did it take hours for my first post to show up? This website is pretty slow...

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    Okay, so I installed the brake calipers with the spacers in and I have constant rubbing of the brakes. I think it's because the forks are not clamped down inward so the inside pads are dragging on the inside of the disks. This is good, this points to a "short" axle, I hope! Also with the brakes...

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    The spacer with the indent on the inside goes on the right (when facing the bike), I have it in the correct spot, also in the 2nd to last picture I do have the larger end towards the fork side and smaller is mounted wheel side. it's hard to see with the bearing dust cover installed.

    Wheel too small for R6 Mod? Spacers not fitting? Please help!

    Hey guys, I have an 2006 FZ6 and I went ahead and got R6S forks, axle, brakes, and spacers (Made by Dako81). I thought this would be a quick unbolt, swap, and bolt, it turned out to be much more... The wheel doesn't fit.... with the wheel and axle installed I still have a 5-8mm gap between...

    R6 Fork Spacer isn't fitting... Please Help!

    So I'm trying to do the R6 fork mod and I got the spacers from dako81 and they looked awesome. I got the forks on and calipers swapped over only to find the spacers not being big enough. With the wheel and axle installed I still have a 5-8mm gap between the spacer and inside edge of the fork. I...
