For Christmas this year I bought myself a shiny new thermostat (part # 5SL-12410-00-00) for about $20 on Ron Ayers. I was convinced mine was stuck open, since I've been riding in the cold lately and it takes forever to get her warmed up, and fuel mileage has definitely taken a hit. In fact...

I'm in a love hate relationship with my fz6 right now, everything about the bike is great - it's looks, it's practicality the amount of power and fun you can have on it. But most of the time I get on the bike i'm just not enjoying myself because I the darn thing feels like it doesn't want to...

I've been riding motorcycles about 9 years, mostly street, some mountain riding. About 40,000 miles total so far. Two years ago I was in an accident where I applied the front brakes too quickly in street traffic, ~ 20 MPH. Nothing too serious, however several ribs broken and a sprained...

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...

1st time poster, long time lurker! I recently acquired an '06 FZ6. The story I got was that the driver "fell asleep" while riding one night. I've been riding all sorts of bikes for almost 40 years, and to date, I have yet had the inclinling of even dosing off during a ride, so I must sumise...

Hello to everyone from WV. I have a 2013 FZ6R. I also own a 2014 Kawasaki Concours 14. The FZ6R is my "go-to" lightweight fun bike. I use the Connie for long trips and touring. Been riding since I was about 13 years old, and am now approaching my 62nd. birthday!

It was Labor Day weekend in the US this weekend. No work Monday!! YES!! I got a lot of work done around the house, but I got to get out and ride too. I am hosting a Bridal Shower for 30+ women at my house in two weeks. Our daughter is getting married in October. Lots of yard work which...

About a month ago I bought a 2006 fz6. Looked great, rode great, i checked oil, forks, air filter, etc all before buying. Everything checked out. I even checked the frame for cracks because I knew about the issue with frame sliders snapping the frame. The only explanation I can come up with for...

Love the forum and have already answered a lot of my questions through searching. :thumbup: I've been riding for ~25 years but took a few years off, after having the itch for the past few summers, I purchased a 2000 Triumph 955i Daytona earlier this summer, loved the bike but it was more than...

Taking the MSF next month and I want to have all my gear ready for the riding portion. I actually brought my bike first and just got my temp plate today. Not riding yet cause I don't know how. So anyway in my search for protective gear I decided to settle on hi viz. Here in Decatur, IL it seems...

Riding the track is always so much fun! Except for the part that I never really want to ride on the street after. ACC South 5-29-16 - Album on Imgur

Hi guys, although its been a while since I've posted last, I still browse the forums from time to time. I still have the FZ6 and she's still running strong, pushing 50,000 miles this summer (I hope!). I hope everybody's been doing well here! :D Does anybody have any suggestions for riding...

How's it going fellow riders, Just introducing myself to the forum, and I noticed this site has an abundant amount of information. I see my self spending some nights soaking it up haha. I have been riding for about 4 years now and have owned a handful of bikes. The first being an 06 Zzr 600, 12...

Well me and 3 friends of mine got thinking and we all thought it would be great to plan a 4 day trip to Normandy (From North Holland). It will be 1 day ride to get there (with a break and/or a bit of minor road riding), 2days riding around the area and then the trip home (also with a stop off...

Greetings FZ6 Family, Just wanted to kick the riding season off (I know some ride year round) with somethings you may already know. 1. It may have been awhile since riding, get some practice time in, it will build your confidence 2. BOLO: Be on the Look Out: Remember, cars are not...

Looks like we'll have some nice weather this Saturday the 19th! With the El Nino weather and my work schedule I've missed out on riding as much as I'd like to. I'll also post this on our SoCal Hoon Google mail. :-)

My wife and I have been hitched for 46 years today and she hasn't killed me yet so all must be goodBlah Almost been married for as long as I've been riding so that means for a long and happy marriage ride a motorcycle :thumbup::thumbup::thumbs: Jerry
