    Another newbie question - wheel spinning in neutral

    I changed my oil and filter and now I notice the rear wheel spins ~15 RPM in neutral when on the center stand. I read this is normal but it did just start after this oil change for me. I put in 10/40 Yamalube as specified. Might this be caused by over-filling? - the dip stick has it right to the...

    Trouble getting into neutral

    Sometimes (more frequently lately) I have a tough time getting the bike into neutral. Pull up from 1st and it will jump into 2nd, push down and into first. Build pressure on the lever slowly and no movement. Then it jumps. No tranny noise and while riding it shifts perfectly. I was...

    04 FZ6 Dies on throttle - sort of

    Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and the FZ6... I'll start by saying that the bike's great so far. This is the only problem I've been able to find, really. The bike starts fine, and if I'm slow on the throttle at first, everything's good. If I, for instance, wanted to spin the wheel in...

    gearbox knocking under acceleration.

    Hi all, So my bike has very rapidly developed a loud knocking sound whilst accelerating under load. I can't replicate this with the bike in neutral, or running it in gear on the stand. I was hoping someone has experienced this before and worked out the cause.
