    07 FZ6 bar risers question

    I need about 1" up and back on my bars for better comfort. What riser set will work with the FZ6 top clamp, and has anyone had any problems with not having enough cable slack? Thanks

    Upside down handle bars or sport bars FZ6

    Hey guys! I was wondering if there was a way to have a spotier riding position on the FZ6 faired. Some guy on youtube said it's possible to flip the stock handles upside down to give that R1 feel, but that the handlebars would touch the fairings. Is there a fix to that, or any other solution...

    04 fz6 - is oem speedo/tach unit needed for operation? Are there aftermarket fuel/temp gauges?

    I have a full fairing 04 fz6 that I am looking into customizing into something more naked. I would like to eliminate the OEM speedo/tach/gauges unit to be replaced with gps speedo and standalone idiot lights and fuel/temp gauges. I have done research online but every custom/naked fz6 I find has...

    Getting used to the throttle on the FZ6

    Hi Everyone, new FZ6 owner here. Came from four (yes 4) years on a Ninja 250. I still love that bike, has a lot to offer other than power. I picked up a 2009 FZ6 with 4k miles on it in near mint condition. Love this bike as well and holy moly it has a lot of power. One thing that is taking...

    So I am wanting to convert my 06' Fz6 into a streetfighter, only problem is I am tight on money. My question to you guys is how cheap can this be done? Can I re-use the stock headlights, speedo, mirrors, and blinkers? Will I need any kind of special mounting brackets? How much will I be looking...

    New with 2004 fz6. Upgrade questions

    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...

    Anyone ever feel the need for more power with FZ6..

    Like the title says any folks need the feeling of more hp? Myself personally FZ6 2006 don't, but my mates on litre bikes give me the only run around, "ah man why did you get the FZ6 over FZ1, I've had a gsxr 750, and couldn't be happier with the FZ6 I always wanted one since they came out...

    Free Fuel Tank off of 2006 Blue FZ6

    Free fuel tank. I bought it off eBay because I was going to put it on my old 2006 Blue FZ6 but sold the bike before I ever had a chance to swap tanks. Since then it's just been sitting in my closet for the last couple years. It is in pretty good condition but it is used so expected wear and it...

    First Track Day. Now many more to come

    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...

    Madstad Windscreen Works!

    I've had problems for several years with too much wind turbulence around the bottom and sides of my helmet. The combination of my Cycle Gear modular helmet and Yamaha's extended height "touring windshield" just created so much wind noise that I couldn't hear my iphone GPS instructions, which...

    FZ6 versus Honda VTR 1000 f (firestorm / superhawk)

    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...

    Hi Everyone! Needing a little advice

    Aloha! So after a lot of prayer and deliberation over buying a motorcycle, my wife and I felt it necessary to "live within our means" and just go with a simple, cheap but reliable motorcycle. I feel as if it was a blessing but I did want to seek wisdom from other FZ6 owners before I pull the...

    What years of front fairing parts will fit a 2005 fz6?

    I recently bought a 2005 FZ6 that went down in a crash and lost its whole front fairing and headlights. I am thinking to find an OEM full fairing to install though I may go naked. Either way I would like to use OEM parts. Can anyone tell me what years of fairing parts will fit the 2005? Is it...

    2007 FZ6 Restoration from Storage Help

    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...
