Thanks. Partzilla/BikeBandit was my first stop. I was disappointed but I had the same guess as you. I'm toying with LEDs so I'll see if I can't come up with a solution. Thanks much tho.

I know the headlights are supposed to have a metal retaining clip, but my bike came missing both. Would a hardware store be the best place to find one, and if so what styles would be best for the bike? Thanks in advance

Thank is an incredibly generous offer. that I will probably take you up on. I'll probably ride dirty (no headlights) as I continue to look into the issue. Luckily my commuting is during the day; thank god for long summer days

Thank you for the replies. I have started the bike (gotten the engine running) and the headlights don't run. I haven't done any headlight mods. Only electrical is a new taillight that is nearly 6 months old. That hasn't given issues. I'm not sure on the voltage testing. I'm not much of an...

I was on a regular ride on my 09 FZ6 and I had the high beam on as well as the running light. Everything was fine (both were functioning). When I stopped (<5 min later), I noted that the highbeam indicator was off and I hadn't turned it off. Sure enough, flicked the switch and it never came on...

That isn't stock. Well that makes my life easier. Thank​you for all the help. I appreciate the patience with the rookie questions

That was easy enough (thank you!) But what about. Other cable? I cannot see where to unbolt that

Thank you for the input. I tried drilling with moderate success. The terminal ended up breaking off and now I have the battery out but I still have take apart the connections. Once again the bolt seems to just spin. I tried clamping the remaining bit of the terminal, the connection, and the...

I'm attempting to replace my battery, and I cannot, for the life of me, get the + terminal screw unscrewed. The damn thing just spins. I've used a screwdriver, ratchet, 10 mm crescent wrench, even, pliers and it just spins. No matter which direction I turn and for how long, the whole thing spins...

I just recently crashed​ on my 09 FZ 6. Other than minor damage to the plastics , the only damage appears to be a bend in the metal bracket that holds the tach and that the whole front end attached to. Nothing appears to be cracked or broken, just misaligned. Any suggestions for repair would be...

Quick question are the bars for the 09 FZ 6 measuring 7/8 or 1 inch?

Hey. How on earth did you install the turn signal part. It comes with the branching cable with the two plastic ends. I can't make heads nor tails of what to connect them to. I just can't find anywhere on the turn signal wires to plug them in to.

Howdy. I'm from CA and I a fairly recent rider, having bought an 09 FZ6 earlier this year. I commute school, work, and recreation and the fz6 is more than up to it. I'm not all that mechanically skilled, but I enjoy working on the bike, although sadly I've had to do more than planned. But this...

I'm looking into replacing the storage compartment/mud guard under the seat (the one where the tool kit is stored). It removes from the bike fine, but the seat lock attaching to it is a pain to remove. It is held on by some "special" screws, that are probably designed to be tamper resistant...

I got it off. I ended up having beat the crap out of an Alan wrench with a rubber mallet to get it started. Thanks for the advice! Sent from my SM-G531H using Tapatalk

I recently had a nasty spill on my 09 Fz6 (nearly got hit by a guy going the wrong way at 75+) and fortunately the damage to my bier was fairly minor. One of the things that got damaged was the left front foot peg. It got completely snapped off and the bracket that holds it in got damaged as...

The tank bag is interesting., It looks a little... massive though? I trust that it fit great on your ride though. Any chance I could get some picture with a scale or dimensions?
