    Need a cosmetically perfect '04-'08 fuel tank. Trade possible?

    Fuel gauge question

    Okay so I've got a new problem to deal with my bike. When i started it up to go for my first ride I noticed that my fuel gauge was acting weird it started out at 3 bars and dropped pretty quickly down to nothing and went into reserve but I knew I had almost a half tank of gas. So on my next ride...

    FZ6 Tank Swap

    Hey friends, I've done some googling but have come up empty. I've compared photos and am almostttt ready to pull the trigger but figured I'd ask you guys first. Will an 2009+ FZ6r Tank fit a 2005 FZ6? They look almost identical in photo's but can never be too sure about mounting hardware.

    FZ6 Broken Float?

    I think the fuel level float has broken off in the tank. There is a rattle inside, sounds like a ball or something just hitting the inside of the tank if you even slightly move the bike. When I fill up it reads full but after about 30 miles its reading 2 bars on the indicator. I just put the...

    Gas

    Hey everyone, This is a question that I feel like I know the answer to but maybe someone has a better answer. I need to drain the gas out of my tank. Where is the easiest point to disconnect? As of now I'm looking at the bottom of the tank thinking that is it.

    Disassembling The Beast: Winter Wrenching

    Okay why do I do everything the hard way. First dual headlight mod, made the wire, plugged it into the headlight. Ran it back to under the tank.

My bike is stood outside at home and this happens when there has been a lot of rain. More recently I fill up with the bike on the...
