Sorry didnt read the first post, i had a kawasaki zx6 that had a center cam chain and there is absolutely no problem to put a split rivet cam chain. I know that from my own bike and other people that had similar bikes. I never knew someone with a center chain that splited cases to fit a new cam...

How much life does a cam chain has in the fz? In many bikes at 50000km its time to start looking for a new one, in the fz when?

28 here, and i personally always liked my bikes stock. Love the balance of power and coumfort of the fz, i just dont need more.

Thanks for all the suggestions, as i already did all basic mainteinance (synching, sparks, air filter) i will continue by checking the fuel tank and re testing the tps when warm just in case, then with more complex things like checking all air hoses, resetting comp, etc. Just to know are there...

Ill check the fuel filter. Interesting what you say about shell because here has a high reputation and is the most expensive fuel of all the mayor brands to be found here. Will try switching fuel brands too. The bike is fully stock except for the dual headlight mod and it had a lojack...

I did check that all numbers in between were present. By checking the tps when warm do you mean shutting of the bike when warm and perform the test or is there a way to perform the test with the bike idling?

Ok so i own this bike for 6 months now and already toured in july and august and it performed great. Recently i found that after riding more than half and hour i.e. when the bike is fully warmed, there are times that when i stop the idle rpm drop too much: from 1250 to 900 more or less...

Hey, Bariloche is one of the most beatiful places to ride i would really like to be able to go again soon. But im 1600km away and short of cash for now. Maybe we will cross paths some time. Good luck.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. Hope to share some ride stories soon now that holidays are coming, im getting desperate for having the time to make long trips on my fz.

Hi everyone, my name is ramon and im from argentina. I have a 2005 fz6 with 22500 miles or 36000km. Ive been riding for 5 years now and had many different bikes, the fz is the first bike im intending on keeping forever because i really like it so far. Im only having a minor issue thats bugging...

While taking the tube apart you should check for marks or dents on the tube in case it isnt a seal problem but a fork problem. If you never done this before it would be a good idea to have a manual, it isnt hard to do it but it is easy to screw it up. Wath out when you unscrew the fork...

Hello, if you didnt change the oil already when you refill each fork its better to measure the distance from the top of the inner tube (fully compressed) without the spring. The haynes says there has to be 134 mm from the top of the tube to the oil level and i found that it is less than 467cc in...
