rpm

Good morning to everyone .fz6 I have a problem with my baby. I removed the catalytic converter and added a 60 cm diameter hand made exhaust. I just have a problem with the idle now it just warms up. it goes up and down. As if I increase the gas for a second then leave it and the same again. see...

Apologies if this isn't in the right place. I've recently been on a longer trip and I got caught in the rain a few times for long period of time. When this happened I'd have an issue with the acceleration. From around 4-4.5k rpm the bike would accelerate very slowly, so the revs would slowly go...

Hello, When I bought my FZ6 S2 2008, I increase idle RPM by screw for stop "cradle" throttle cable. (see photo). I don't know whether it is good solution. I will be glad if you tell me how difference is between setting "stop screw" and original setting screw for idle RPM. (see second...

Hello guys, There are numerous threads about engine vibration on this forum, I went through them and unfortunately I could not find a solution. So, to start off, I've recently bought an FZ6 S2 2008 (American version) that had only 2000 km on the odometer (the mileage is real). For the...

Hello all. I tried searching but not much people talking about this issue. Mine is 2005 model, everything is stock except the exhaust with straight pipes mod and CAT removed. It accelerates and run fine. But while maintaining constant speed or slight deacceleration the exhaust sound sputters...

When do you people shift up say during a gentle drive in city traffic. I switch gears up at no less than 3000 rpm when there's no particular need for quick acceleration. Afterwards cruise at just above 3000 rpm, usually > 3100 rpm.

Hello guys, I searched the different threads on this subject but i was't able to find a solution for my problem. I am new to motorcycling so I am not yet familiar with its electrical/mechanical problems but I want to learn as much as possible ( preferably without having them :)) ) The problem...

Hey guys. Learning my bike and getting familiar with the little things and wanted to see if what I'm experiencing is normal. At highway speeds there is a very subtle vibration in the grips, not even bothersome nor that noticeable with gloves. Seems to happen in the 7-8k range and is more...

Hi. I have a problem with my Fazer 600 S2 SA. After warm up to 86 C the idle revs start jumping up (NOT DOWN) about 150 RPM. If I give high revs I observe the same unstable jumping up about 150 RPM even on 6000. Video: https://youtu.be/ZUGRw3ivPrA This may, or may not be connected with me...

Heya folks! Been trying to get my stupid PC3 working properly (I can't seem to get any discernible changes when loading maps, despite having the O2 sensor gone and unplugging the battery for a time between changing the map) and in the midst of doing that, went out on a test ride. I know our...

I have a 2007 FZ6 bought new. It started breaking up a while back at about 5k RPM, in any gear if you roll the throttle on after 5k RMP the motor breaks up and there is no power. It feels like an ignition issue, almost like a throttle limiter is engaged and is interrupting the coil sequence...

Recently I've done two minor maintenance/tuning tasks and I seem to have cured issues I didn't know I had. The first was a new battery. It let me down at work last week, I assumed because I'd been teaching my 2 year old to start the bike, flatted the battery and killed off that crucial last...

Hi there, im looking at a 2008 FZ6 with only 6000 kms on it and have a couple questions. 1. Whats the RPM at say 60 mph with stock gearing and with +1F -1R? 2. Is the bottom end torque really that bad as some people make it out to be? Being winter here i have no option to test ride. A...

Hello all, I washed my FZ6:rolleyes: and it started sputtering the next day. Ran the diagnostics and it shows Er_1 (in diagnostic mode)as soon as I start the engine.:eek: Video below Yamaha FZ6 sputter - YouTube Which connections can be causing this? I have checked the air filter and sparkplug...

When you guys are riding non-aggressively and simply cruising along, what RPM's do you keep your FZ6 at? I got my '07 FZ6 about a week ago and find myself cruising around the 5K range. I'm curious as to what other members keep their RPM range at?

I've been noticing lately that intermittently my bike will sputter between 1K and 2K, having trouble staying at a steady RPM in that range, it will bounce up and down. Any idea's of what could be the issue? I'm thinking maybe spark plugs, alternator, or regulator issues.

All, After seeing all the threads about correcting the speedo error, top speed, tires, and how fast will an FZ go, I had to look a bit deeper. With that here is a formula that should give you the corrected speed based upon gear selection, sprocket choice, and tire diameter. Obviously tire...

Hi. I think my tacho is busted. Why? Well, I’ve been checking out vids on YouTube of guys gunning it on FZ6’s. For instance, take a look at this one... (p.s. it's not me... just some crazy dude) YouTube - FZ6 almost top speed As a matter of performance testing, I’ve been opening up the...
