    07 charging problem?

    I'm new here, but already I have my first issue with the bike. Not how I wanted to start posting. My '07 has ~3800 miles on it, so not much use at all. I'm the third owner, the first barely broke it in, and the second rode it about 250 miles per year. It hadn't been ridden since last fall...

    Chain guard/guide fell off...am I okay to ride home without it?

    I had no idea until my wife texted me that she found it lying in the driveway. I'm at work now, is it okay to ride home without it on? I didn't notice any weird noise on the way here, so I'm guessing it's fine? Part #5 here

    Stranded 600 miles from home due to front sprocket nut letting going

    Hello all I'm new to the forum. I'm returning from a 16 day 5000 mile trip on my fz6. I lost power when my front sprocket nut came off. It sheared the threads. Luckily it happened in the parking lot of my motel. I will be calling shops in the morning and hope someone offers a solution to get...

    2007 FZ6 Transmission Question

    Hi everyone! I did a quick search online, and maybe I'm not using the right terms, but I didn't come up with any similar results. I thought this sub might have an answer for me. I was riding home tonight, and as I was coming to a stop at a light and downshifting into 1st, I noticed that...

    Oil light came on for a bit while I was being irresponsible. Should I worry about it?

    Was out on a very long, very flat, very empty piece of desert road this weekend with a few other riders and we had a little impromptu speed run. Was pretty close to redline in 3rd and then 4th for quite a while, was contemplating shifting up again, but as soon as I hit one more digit...

    Normal operating temperatur - 09 FZ6

    I apologize if this isn't the correct section for this question, but it seems to fit. I'm curious what "normal" operating temperature should be as indicated on the computer. Typically when I ride, it's in the afternoon between 70-80 degrees and is in and out of town, so some stoplights, but...

    Clutch cable stuck engaged?

    Hello everyone, So yesterday I had a bit of an embarrassing episode. I figured I would brave the new ice on the roads on my bike to get to class however I ended up going down at aprox 6mph on a icy patch. Mostly just lost pride, however in the process my clutch handle broke off so I had to get...

    Went for a ride on Sunday.

    Went for a day ride on Sunday. Together with a mate of mine we organised a days ride around Utrecht. Leaving home the weather was great, blue skies and Sunshine but after riding the 40 minutes to the starting café in Abcoude we were shrouded in mist. Luckily during our half hour coffee break...

    crashed...

    I went out for a ride today. It was 70 degrees and I figured there aren't too many nice days left for the year. I did quite a bit of spirited riding, and in general had a good time. Stopped and filled up the bike, after putting a solid 100 miles on. Did a little cruising around town before...

    Wanted: legit site to buy MS Office 2010 Professional Plus w/out loss of arms & legs

    In short most sales of office 2010 are extinct (US English) and those that do exist for less than $250 USD look pretty shady. So, if anyone has a site they know and trust that has a copy for less I'd love to know about it. Here is a $10 option sponsored through MS but I don't have company in...

    Age vs. Miles

    I have a 2008 FZ6 with only 5000 miles on it.. I have replaced the oil (a couple of times) now running Motul 7100 and just changed the Coolant with Engine Ice. What else would you suggest for a low mile bike but 7 years old? Reason I ask is that it seems to be running a bit rough lately and also...

    TL;DR : Throttle was cutting in and out and now the bike is dead and won't even start. Need ideas. More detail below. So at the end of a my first ride of the year I was almost home when the throttle cut out on me (felt like I had just completely closed the throttle) even though I was...

    Please help, electrical problem...

    Hi guys, new FZ6 rider here :-) Opened the season today - but after a total of about 4-5 hours of riding today (with a few stops) my bike started glitching out. First the dashboard went out and rebooted. Then again. I turned around and set course home, but It got worse as I was riding. By the...

    OT - The Batcave Home Theater

    My buddy Chris from the east coast had his home theater setup named AVS's HT of the Month. I've seen a few movies and listened to music in that room, it looks and sounds fantastic! :rockon: The Batcave
