    For Sale @ more or less Shipping cost - Stock exhaust and cat, and rearsets, from 2007 FZ6 - Pasadena CA

    BUMP Adding that I am also offering the stock rearsets (aka footpegs) - which currently have the, as I recall "ozo2 setback plates" bolted on (can easily be removed). You can kind of see them in the top of the picture above. I had painted the inserts black a long time ago - they could be...

    Sold my FZ6

    Thanks guys. I loved the FZ6. I said to it as I was prepping it and within earshot of my wife, thanks for always taking care of me and getting us back safely. She never let me down! Loved In terms of the sale, I met the buyer over at a local shop that offers a service where they will...

    For Sale @ more or less Shipping cost - Stock exhaust and cat, and rearsets, from 2007 FZ6 - Pasadena CA

    As I've now sold my FZ6, I have the stock exhaust which the new owner didn't want. Before I take it to a scrap place, does anyone here want them? I believe these will fit 2007-09. The original headers stayed with the bike and are not offered here :) Edit - PM me an offer - as long as you...

    Sold my FZ6

    Howdy everyone! It's been a hot minute and a long while has passed since the great days past where I spent a lot of time on this forum. Of all my internet meetups/forums etc. over the years, this is the one place where I have met the most people and had the most fun. Cliff (@Motogiro I...

    What is that noise?

    P.S. holy smokes what a meltdown in the clutch basket! One would wonder, did that even precipitate the noise you captured in the video, or was it something else that also destroyed the basket?

    What is that noise?

    I do not know about such things but - seriously - I think Gary above may be onto something. To my ear that sound has a distinct "chain" sound to me. Actually, what it kind of reminded me of is when I have my FZ6 propped up on the rear stand for chain maintenance, and I spin the rear tire...

    Mileage register (High and Low)

    Hey @VEGASRIDER - Kenny! Dude I was thinking about you specifically the other day. I was working to flush and change my brake fluid, with my wife helping me on the "squeeze and hold the lever" duties while I bled the lines. I thought of you because unlike you Kenny (and probably a lot of...

    Tail turn indicators

    Hey @StatusRF - is your question and concern about the looks / aesthetic appeal? Or are you concerned with passing moto inspection in Portugal? If the inspection is the concern, do you have any more info regarding what it will take to pass inspections, like for example are the turn indicators...

    Hi all, new here

    Nice man, welcome to the forum. This is my first time checking in in quite some time myself I am not sure where to buy parts as I never modified my bodywork. Good luck with the bike, ride safe and have fun!

    Hello everyone

    What's up Cliff? Great to see you and a few other familiar screen names still here. I still have and wear my FZ6 forum t-shirts (I have 3 I think). I reflect fondly on our few big group rides that I participated in; they are among my only long rides that I've ever really done. And the big...

    Hello everyone

    It's been years and years, but I just wanted to say hello and that I am still alive (close calls since I talked to anyone here notwithstanding) and still riding (a little) and loving (a lot) my red 2007 FZ6. Hey everybody!

    Spark plugs. What a pain

    I got 23k miles before I finally changed mine out, because I was wary of this job. As mentioned above, I'd definitely go with the right side/unbolt radiator brackets approach.

    West Friesian dike ride yesterday

    That sounds like a fun ride! 26 is a large group indeed - tough to stay together in a big group like that. It's fun to be part of it too, when you pass people and see their faces as all those bikes go whizzing by. Love it! Thanks for sharing. :thumbup: p.s. I love seeing "my bike"...

    Overnight Street Parking

    says the guy named, "FZ09Bandit" Just pointing out the irony. :thumbup: As you said, if it gets stolen that is what the insurance is there for. You never know it could be stolen at any moment, or you could just as likely park it wherever you feel like with no concern at all and be...

    Agressive Motorpatrol's move passing a rider

    Par for the course - I have seen LEOs do worse than that in cars/SUVs. I agree that it was an unnecessarily unsafe pass given that he was trying to (presumably) catch a speeder. It's unnerving when another bike passes you at such a higher rate of speed relative to your own. All that said...

    FZ6N some overtake and cornering

    Great vid, Mkii! :thumbup: The quality of the road surface is outstanding - kudos to the Swedish Department of Roads or Transportation or whatever - you should see our awful roads in Los Angeles (even with the great weather!). I was in Stockholm for business last year - my first time there...
