OOOOOOOOOOH so that little adapter is attached to the original bulb? Yeah the original bulb was bigger in every way but I didn't realize there was an adapter.
The metal base plate (where the spring clip sits) is smaller than on the OEM one. But I haven't compared it without the adapter...
Hello everyone,
I am replacing both headlights on my 2007 FZ6 because one went out and I figured I would get a bulb to help increase visibility at night. I chose some Hella bulbs (the +50%) ones.
The H4 fit just fine into the high beam slot and are working nicely.
The H7 I bought seems to be...
Firstly, Thanks for all of your guys' help.
Ok the problem was not that the brake light was not working, but rather that it was permanently on.
I went ahead and checked the wires with the multimeter and everything was good there.
Then I went ahead and checked the front brake switch and...
The horn works (and didn't have a problem). I had checked every single fuse and none of them are blown. Additionally the yellow wire is not damaged in any way.
Hello everyone,
I have a 2007 FZ6 and the previous owner had installed an integrated tail light, one of those cheapo amazon specials (I think MZS is the brand judging from looks). Today I noticed neither the front nor rear brakes activate the brake light.
There is a row of bulbs on the...
Guys, sorry about having bothered you all for nothing. I was working with my friend that day and I asked him to take a flashlight and check out the overflow reservoir and he told me "I don't see anything". I took his word that there was nothing in the reservoir, especially because the bike was...
Hello everyone,

Hello everyone,
I'm located in New York City and I have an OEM muffler with turn signals and all. If anyone is interested shoot me a message and I will be glad to either arrange for pickup or ship (buyer pays). Looking to get $50 out of it.
Hello everyone,
I had to change a leaky oil pan gasket and was wondering how much oil I should put in the system. I know that changing the oil and filter normally requires 2.8L but since I removed the pan, I would think that I would have to add more? In the service manual it states that 'total...
The entire cooling system was full and the reserve reservoir as well. 2 months ago I had drained and filled the system. I would think that in 2 months time the reservoir shouldn't empty out.
The problem is I have no air compressor but I guess it must be time to get one.
Any idea on the filmy...
I am 100% sure that it is not overfilling. 2.8L of 7100 with a new filter. Actually, when checking the disptick, while on centerstand, I had a little less than that (due to a slight oil pan leak). There is not a milkshakey appearance just bubbles which are lighter in color than the oil itself...
Hello everyone,
I took my 2007 FZ6 for a ride for the first time in about 10 days and I noticed the temp gauge running hot. Usually the fan kicks on at about, I would say, 170-180 ish (unless I'm clearly mistaken). But yesterday my fan would only kick on around 210. it would bring it back down...
Oh lord! I didn't know. I would do it myself but since I don't have nitrogen I'll pawn it off. I have practically restored this bike single handed. I can take a rest on the last job.
Do you think the $175 price for rebuilding it is too much? Admittedly I haven't been to a mechanic's shop in years because I do everything myself. I guess I should check around and ask. the only benefit from Penske is that I believe they will replace the preload collar which has corroded...
Hello everyone,
After much work the front forks are done. Brand new seals, bushings, oil, as well as a spring for my weight. I can say without a doubt its WAYYYY better. The adjusters actually make a difference now. Besides springs which were much too soft for me, one of the forks was had 100ml...
