Hey all, new around here so I hope I'm doing this right! I recently picked up an '07 FZ6 S2 with ~10k mi., on the test ride and on the way home I didn't notice any issues- the bike ran great. However after doing some slow speed practice in a parking lot on the ride back home the check engine...

I saw the turn signal help thread but didnt want to hijack it with mine as my problem is kinda the same but different. The turn signals on the right side work both front and back but the left side nothing front and back but the front left one lights up when I start the bike. running lights work...

Hi everyone, I have 04 FZ6N, it is a brilliant bike. However, few days ago it doesn't want to start. The instrument cluster went blank and the bike only cranks and doesn't want to start. The problem begin when I tried to wire an aftermarket tachometer. I tried to get the wiring for the new...

I've been trying to do some research on my issues for a few days now. Unfortunately, not only have I not been able to find a solution, I have not been able to find anyone who has had my exact issue. A quick background. I decided to purchase a Power Commander II USB for my 2008 FZ6. I purchased...

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...

Hey everyone, I'm looking to replace the halogen bulb in my fz6n with a dual high/low beam LED, just straight conversion, but wanted to ask about it's feasibility. I've found this bulb but am a bit worried about its 50watt draw and whether it actually fit into the bike. By my own looks it...

Just as the post reads, got a used 2008 Yamaha FZ6. Didn't realize the rear running light wasn't working but everything else is fine. The bike still turns on that side turn signal when activated. Pulled the tail light fuse, nothing wrong with it. Any ideas? UPDATE - Bought a new bulb from the...

I have the dual headlight mod on my fz6 2005 I'm having a strange situation with this bike. - This is my first bike :) My low beams aren't working but both my high beams are. Lights are ok and he fuses are ok so i'm assuming it's a wiring problem. However, my dual low beams were working...

I have a strange problem occurring on my bike. For about a month now my check-engine light has been coming on. At first it would only come on for a few seconds when travelling at highway speeds. These days it comes on most times I ride. The bike's performance remains the same it has always...

30 minutes into a stop / start commute in suburban Atlanta, I get to a major intersection in the left turn lane. Four lanes, both directions, and I notice the check engine light (CEL). "What's that?" I wonder. I decide to hit the kill switch (the mistake) to cycle it on / off and see if it...

Hi guys! I am sure this is not the first time it is asked but I couldn't find it using the search function. Problem: The clicking noise of my turn-signals sometimes keeps clicking after I reset them. Bike: FZ6 2005 S1. Turn-signals aren't stock but it was done before I got the...

Hey Everyone, Vegasrider asked me to explain my on-board power solution. It really is a simple mod that all started with a direct to battery, Battery Tender lead. I needed to power my 65 watt First Gear heated jacket liner and glove liners. My other major power need was to be able to run my...

Hello! Complete newbie on this forum, fz6's and customising in general I'm completely baffled by the following problem I own a 05 fz6 s2 I have just installed a Dominator exhaust, LED rear tail/brake light, tail tidy with single LED no. Plate light with to Arrow carbon look rear...

Help the stupid. My FZ6n 2005 all of a sudden started to give error code ER-1 when idling. The heatmeter also blinked full - near full - full although the temperature was below mid-level of the meter. When riding, the error code stopped showing. I got back from the trip and after few days...

I have a 2007 FZ6. Apparently this may be a known fault as it has been fixed on the bike before for a previous owner. When i turn the key on it goes through its usual start up procedure on the dash but the blue full beam warning light stays on all the time and I have no headlights. This means...

Hi all, Last year my bike started playing up, on random occasions when I let the revs drop below 1500 rpm the engine would stop. I could never figure out why and there was no pattern to when it happened. If I switched the bike off and on again it would work fine. Eventually the bike died...

A couple months ago my 06 fz6 started cutting off when I would pull in the clutch an begin to slow down. I mean as soon as I pulled in the clutch an front brake it would just die. Wasnt too big of an issue it always seemed to crank right back up so I rode like this for over a month, not the...

Hi All, I have a particularly troublesome issue, and I'm not even certain where to start as far as fixing it. Recently on a relatively short ride, maybe 60 miles - my FZ6 started stalling out at at idle, which isn't entirely unexpected - I responded by keeping it under throttle at stops -...

So I have an '08 FZ-6...and I love it. I just got over the break-in mileage and everything has been fine. The bike however, has been having some electrical issues that are really worrisome. I wish they would have started prior to the 550-mile mark so that I could just turn the thing in, but it...
