So I've got two months to get rid of my 2004 Silver FZ6 that blew it's engine. Right now it's parked in a garage that's costing me only $100/month, which isn't awful. Options: 1) Sell as is, needs new motor. How much should I ask for? $1000 too much? Better to call it a parts bike or just...

Hunting for a replacement bike, or maybe a replacement motor, near SF after my engine asploded today.

Hello, I checked battery voltage using diagnostic mod from cluster. (d-09 shows battery voltage) It shows 11.4V while fuel pump motor is active. (.You have to turn on kill switch to see battery voltage, and it automatically switches fuel pump motor) Batter is a 4-5 year old Yuasa. It...

Rode up to Idaho last week to attend the Chills and Thrills event that the local motor units put on. Essentially its a modified police course in which they invite the public to ride, and it's a great chance for the local motors to polish their skills. As you can see, I like to push the limits...

You know what time it is? It's time to beat up on the local motor units again in front of a live audience. The unfortunate victim this time, the sergeant for the motor unit. Weak effort in my opinion but at least he didn't drop his bike like the other cop last year. I'm 5-0 against the Reno...

I replaced the motor in my 2004 fz6n. thought some may benefit from what I learned. Thanks to Scott for his help. The original motor had a bad knock when I bought it, got it very cheap. Turned out the camshaft had a slight wobble and the gear driving the clutch got very tight every 360 degrees...

Hi, I just bought a 04 fz6n fairly cheap as it has a knock in the motor. Pulled it apart and found the crankshaft has a slight wobble in it, a small crack in the casing near the clutch too. Figure the cheapest and easiest way to get it on the road is another motor, I don't know what year models...

Hey everyone, I searched the web and the forums for a similar issue and haven't found one matching my problem. when I attempt to start my 05 FZ6s I get one click from the starter relay and no turn from the starter motor. It's not a rapid click as described by other riders, just one single click...

my little brother threw a chain on his 2008 FZ6, cracked the blocks above the sprocket looking for a replacement motor. give me a holler and let me know what you have. Thanks Flip

I have two radiator fan motor guards (left over) for sale. They were designed on my 07 and the original is currently installed and pictured below. They fit both the S1 and S2 models.(04-09) I designed and made these up to prevent the often occurring burnt out fan motor when a pebble jambs up...

I can adjust the cable at the handlebar end but is there a way to adjust at the motor end without taking the battery and air box out? Clutch cable...not throttle cable. How can I change the title? Thanks!

Last night I noticed my a tug on the motor that coincided with turn signal use. I was on the freeway and using my signals when each blink coincided with a slight motor lag. Same issue tonight. Also noticed that when I used the motor kill switch while holding the brakes (backing into a spot) the...

Its something most of us never think about or ever replace on a bike. Oddly I believe mine is failing. It usually warms up pretty quick, within 2ish miles of riding with a good 30 seconds of idle while I finish gearing up but lately I have been able to make it to work (~6) miles and the temp...

Victory Motorcycles is coming out with an all electric bike, end of this year. Only $20K! I've always liked the workmanship on Victories, only thing bad I've heard about them is their gearboxes aren't very smooth. Surprisingly, this thing has a six-speed gearbox! Electric cars that I know of...

My FZ6 died, but my son will resurrect it with another motor. I found a low mileage FJR1300 for a great price and had to have it. here are some pics. P.S. if you live in the LA/OC So Cal area and have a good motor for sale email me at [email protected].

Seems like most of the links I click on it takes me to the Yamaha Motor sports site. Anyone else? Anyone know why? Thanks.

Hi, new to this forum so not exactly sure where to write this but here goes. I purchased a 2008 fz6 that wasn't running been in a crash basically front of bike is gone. I got it for the reason of putting motor in a go kart as bike is a write off but motor still ok. Now I've got the...

I would like to regretfully say I had my first lay-down on my FZ6 a couple weeks ago. It was about 30mph and laid on the left side and aside from the cosmetics, it cracked the stator cover open like an egg and all of the bike's oil came out. I mean a lot. With all of the adrenaline I think my...
