    Flashing Engine Light and Haywire Gauges?

    Last week my FZ6 would make a buzzing sound upon pushing the ignition. I took the USB charger that was attached directly to the battery off which fixed the issue. I got my tires changed yesterday and now occasionally while pushing the ignition, I will get the buzzing sound, gauges go crazy, and...

    Squeaky/whistle-like sound at highway speeds?

    Noticed a weird squeaky, siren-like sound at highway speeds near the front of the bike. Thought it was the front bearing so had the replace and still hear it. Any ideas?

    FZ6 S2 weird noise coming from sprockets

    Hi all, Can anyone clear this out for me, it's been bugging me for a while. Is the sound the sprockets make in this video: https://youtu.be/aw0LuOk7D9I normal or not? Thanks

    Arching / Rattling sound when accelerating - sound like its coming from the stator

    I've noticed this sound since I got the bike - 09 with 4K miles, especially when leaning the bike to the right. Do not hear it when leaning the bike to the left (left handle bar towards the pavement). I'm not sure if it is getting louder or I'm just starting to notice it more. I installed the...

    Front end issue

    Hello guys, A couple of years ago I've bought a 2008 FZ6 N with around 27.000 km / 16872 miles and now I've got around 33 k km. Pretty soon after I bought the bike I stared hearing strange sounds coming from the front end. I've asked a couple of guys from a local garage to take a look at it...

    Bad ide sound

    Bad idle sound Yesterday I pulled in my clutch at about 10 mph and heard a 'snap' sound. Thankfully I was already at home so I didn't have to ride it any further, but now my idle sounds terrible (see video). The past few days I've been trying to get the front wheel up, so my guess is that it's...

    Aftermarket Exhaust gets Louder when Warm

    Had a Leo Vince exhaust installed recently. This is my first experience with after market exhaust of any type. I noticed that when cold, it's quiet even though the sound is sweet (db killers in). Once it has warmed up after a few mins, the sound gets deeper, more reverberation. It is definitely...

    Drilled exhaust sound change question

    I write a new topic but if U think it will be better connected to other than please do so. I drilled my exhaust a couple of months ago and noticed that it sounds better, more "crispy" when the engine is cold, like first start in the morning. The backfire is also more often then. When I ride and...

    I think I freaked a Seller off of craigslist.

    I'm in market for exhaust mods and want to listen to the sound personally than from YouTube Videos. I checked on craigslist for nearby FZ6 sellers and noticed one guy have TB installed on his bike (that bike is so good, you buy it and drive it, nice deal, low miles, integrated tail lights, and...

    Thoughts after installing the Leo Vince

    I tried the drilling mod, tried to be strong and not change the exhaust ( and failed). The install was pretty uneventful, I'm leaving the dB killer in. The sound is great ( how a sports-ish bike should sound), I think ( based on seat of pants dyno) it revs faster and goes a bit better. I...

    Air Filter

    TLDR in bold. Hiya folks, got a quick question for you all today. I'd tried in the past to get the airbox off back when I first got the bike, but didn't have much luck so I didn't pay it much attention. I'm just having a hard time with hopping up and buying things right now due to money being...

    Air Box Mod, Sounds Good!

    Hey guys This is basically just my take on the air box modification Just lets more air through the filter so there is no way your letting too much for your engine in AND since all the air is still going through your filter there's no chance of anything you don't want getting in your...

    Best sounding exhaust

    I've looked through just about every exhaust thread on here and every sound clip I can find on youtube trying to gauge which exhaust sounds the best. Please excuse the vanity of this thread but I won't lie, the sound is almost the only reason I'm interested in dishing out the $$ for a dual...

    New 2008 FZ6 Owner - Some Questions (RPM, Clutch, Maintenance)

    Heya folks, really glad to be here and moreso than that I'm excited to get out riding this new bike of mine come spring. I picked up a 2008 FZ6 with only 11,000KM on it from an older rider who seems to have taken really good care of it as far as I can tell. There's a tinted windscreen, HID...
