Feeler: Loaded 2010 Tiger 1050 (over $10k in mods) Purchased this bike last fall as an upgrade from my FZ6. It's a phenomenal motorcycle, but I’m considering downsizing to something smaller. 27XXX miles. The previous owner was a renowned Triumph technician, and farkled it to the extreme. All...

Ok, I have about 200 miles on a new to me 2004 FZ6. Love the bike! Hate the tack! Hate the mirrors! Mirrors are real nice if I was thinking about looking at the tattoos on my arms, but not so much for people behind me. IÂ’m thinking IÂ’ll just get bar end mirrors, but the first set I...

Hi everyone in this forum, My bike has a problem. It won’t start and the only syndrome is the cluster shows “Hi”( coolant temperature). I had checked the resistance of the coolant temperature sensor and it is within the spec. I had tried to entered the diag mode, but I can not. I do not know...

On Saturday I did my first track day at New York Safety Track. It was an amazing experience and I highly suggest it if you live in the Northeast. Friday I took the ride up from Long Island to Albany where my friend lives. I had the FZ6 in full touring mode. I had custom built hardcases, a tail...

Best 2 out of 3 against Reno's motor unit in the slow bike race. I was 4-0 against them.

Hi All, First time posting on here. I had my bike in the garage and forgot to connect up the trickle charger. Obviously when I tried to start it for first ride of the year it was flat as a pancake. Left the trickle charger on for a few days and then the bike fired up great. Rode to work...

Saturday 2018-06-02 and the goal is oil change on the Fizzer. Throw the tank bag on and hit one store for a Wix filter and plan to hit another for the oil (I want what I want). Any who, somehow I head to the rising sun which leads me 90mi to all of this... Yes, this is the view...

I can't believe how much of a different sounding bike it is with the baffles out I love it! It completes everything I wanted to do on the bike now other than some new levers. That sound in second gear when you hover at rolling traffic pace :Flash: Certainly puts a smile on my face. Anyone...

Hey guys i am new to the site, been using it the past week as i start on my first Fz6 project bike. Just reading through the pages after pages of well worded info have already saved me tons in mechanic bills! Yall are a great group and i look forward to picking your brains as i continue deeper...

Hello, As my FZ6 is STILL with it's engine in pieces, I've started looking for cheap second bikes. As I couldn't find any comparisons between these two, here is my mini review. Perhaps there are others looking for a comparison like this. I chose to check out the vtr because it was the cheapest...

As stated in title. I'm getting rid of my old 2004 FZ6 engine with about 45k miles on it. Will pull small pieces off and ship if anyone wants them. Just make me a reasonable offer to cover shipping and my time.

Looking for a cover that suite my needs and fits the bike quite well. Needs to be quite resistant against rain and would be cool of it could take some heat so I could fit it just after I park the bike at home. Does not have to be flashy as it is primarily for parking up next to the house...

Howdy! I'm here in Western KY, just purchased my first bike, '08 FZ6, it has some miles on it but it runs well and the previous owner was very fastidious about their maintenance, so I'm happy with it. EXCEPT FOR ONE THING. The exhaust. It has a 2 Brothers M2 slipon and it is just...

:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: Gonna be a while before it actually gets here (at least 2 weeks), but payment's in. Liked that bike ever since I 1st demo'd it. Should make for some fun adventures here in VT.

MadDog GearComfort Ride Seat Protector Review Hi All, I bought the MadDog GearComfort Ride Seat Protector for my bike since it had very good reviews and it was very cheap at less then $20. I am about 6 feet and 2 inches, and I use my bike for commuting to work which is about 30 miles and takes...

I have a 2004 FZ6, I just got the bike April 1st and it was stolen this past Monday and just (fortunately) recovered. There was no damage, but I tried to start it and it wouldn't start so I had it towed to my place and thought I would try to get it up and running. The bike doesn't turn on...

Hi everyone, I bought a 2007 Yamaha FZ6 brand new in 2007 when I was in college. Drove it for about 900 miles and respected all of the break-in period rules. I ended up having to move after I graduated in 2008 and couldn't keep the bike and sold it to my father who put it in his garage. For a...

I can't believe it's ending. :( I've been sharing my journey with this wonderful bike on here for years. But I have a kid now and I never get to ride any more as I have to take him to work with me and I hate seeing the bike sat in the garage not being used. I've listed my 2008 Black FZ6 S2...

Hello everyone! I'd like to thank anyone that helps out in advance. I've read through way posts, and cant seem to find anything beneficial. So, I recently purchased a 2006 FZ6 with about 20,000 miles on it. It also has a PC3, two brothers exhaust, and K&N filter. Ever since I bought it a few...

I'm having an intermittent electrical problem with my 2006 fz6. Just for more info, at the end of last years' riding season, I replaced the starter relay and starter motor brushes because there was some cranking problems. It seemed to fix all the cranking problems. Cut to last week, after...
