New clutch - Not enough spring-action... SOLVED! Installed a new clutch (a set with compression springs, friction plates and clutch plates). The whole operation was quite easy except refitting the clutch cover onto the pull rod. I followed the steps of the "2004 Service Manual" (around page...

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...

Just an FYI I thought I'd post some information. 23,000 miles on the bike, clutch cable WELL maintained. While lubing it yesterday (and it was working fine), I noticed the clearish plastic cable insert coming OUT at the lever end of the cable(nothing should stick put BUT the cable)...

Hello all of you. Since this is my first post I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Lukas, I live in Poland, and am almost 40 years old. At the moment I am a lucky (almost) user of FZ6 S2, build year 2008. I own this bike for 6 years now, when I bought it in 2010 it had a mileage of 10 kkm...

Hello guys, The weather puts a smile on my face, as we went for the first ride of this year, Old US 18 and US 181; the roads are so empty, we sport/street bikers are just flying :D Anyway, I have a few questions about our girlfriends. ;) 1. Vibrations in the rear view mirrors (OEM FZ09...

Finally got some heated gloves to keep me riding into the winter and today was the first sub 40F weather so I had my heated jacket, gloves and grips going. Seems like after I stopped for gas my bike was a little sluggish to start and my grips wouldn't turn on due to the battery being near dead...

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...

Local dealer is trying to sell a 2015 FZ6. NOT the FZ6R.

Hello Everyone, I am brand spanking new to this forum, but have lurked around a bit. In large part to the many informative posts on this forum, I purchased a 2007 FZ6 last year to get back into riding. It was a garage queen with a mere 700 miles. I have put about 5,000 miles on it and...

I just got a Givi topcase and mounting for my bike, and according to the instructions - which are horrible, by the way - I have to remove this part and replace it with theirs to mount the support bracket. The Yamaha part is 90338-21145-00 "PLUG,SPEC'L SHAPE." Any ideas? I put vise grips on it...

So I went out tonight, haven't been on the bike in months (house burned down, lost all my gears). Anyway, halfway down the block I realize my headlight is out, I pull over, feel for the headlight connectors on both sides, both are on, high beam is also out. I turn around, come home and pull the...
