    ...a proper intro!

    Hey Everyone, I introduced myself in the new members thread but figured I'd do a proper one in a thread of my own...with a few pics! :sinister: Been riding for the past five years on a 96 XJ600. It had been my daily commuter which tends to be about 90% of my riding. I just don't seem to...

    Hi there, Don't know where exactly where to put this post, general or mechanical help so I'll try here first. I have 2007 FZ6 and for years already I am experiencing subtle vibration in my right hand side grip. It's not like Harley where on traffic light stop whole bike, including tips of...

    Help deciding on my new ride.

    Hello guys, This is Raj, My job contract with my previous company ended in Aug 2016, so, I sold my FZ6, Charlotte*, NC. I placed an ad in march or so, and got it sold in the least expected month, August. Now, I'm going back to Charlotte, for another project, hopefully, 18 months again(after...

    Trip odometer and clock resetting

    I bought an '08 last summer that one of the previous owners had done a naked conversion on. Some of the work seemed kind of shoddy, but I wasn't going to complain for the price. Anyways, my dash resets every time I turn the bike off. Odometer is fine, but the trip and clock reset which is...

    RainCity Spring Cleaning Build

    Alright guys, it's finally time I start contributing some content around here. Here is a long overdue introduction of my bike. It looks a little rough around the edges after being knocked over by a lady leaving a parking spot. Definitely in need of some TLC. I've been looking forward to doing...

    Assen TT, Moto GP

    Well Facebook gave me a reminder this morning that I'm going to the Assen TT tomorrow, as if I'd forget :rolleyes: Looking forward to it, I went with the kids last year (kids under 15 are free on the grass banks) but unfortunately they both have some pretty heavy end of school year exams this...

    Numerous issues, overheating, rising idle, drivability....

    Mix and match anti freeze.

    Hey guys, I have track day tomorrow, oil is fine, but anti freeze, the overfil reservoir is empty. I don't remember what my mechanic put last time, in November, 4k miles ago. Can I use Peak long life, 50/50 to top it off? I don't want to drain the current one and redo again, so, mixing is good...

    My CBR600F4i Review

    Had around 2 months now to ride around on my new to me CBR600F4i, a 2002 model with 49,000 km when I picked it up. Had to put in a fair bit of work, fixing the valves up, fixing the CCT, replacing 9/10ths of the hoses, doing a starter valve (TB) sync, and lowering the absurd amount of oil that...

    Chain size questions.

    Hey guys thanks for taking the time to answer my question, So i left my bike in the garage over the winter and I (irresponsibly) did not lube it so the chain is real stiff and has some seized links and sounds horrible. I want to change the chain, I've read that the stock length is 118 links, I...

    Clutch Cable Routing Help

    Hi all, newbie here both to the forum, and to my FZ6. The previous owner did a side-of-the-road clutch cable replacement, and I'm trying to replace it with the OEM version, but having a hell of a time routing it correctly. Two questions right off the bat, for those of you who have done this...

    New to me 2008 FZ6... not what I expected.

    So I was looking for a decent machine that I could permanently strip of lights, mirrors and other unnecessary parts so as to have a ready-to-rock track day bike. I don't have the time to always be fixing stuff, so I wanted something that wasn't highly sought after by your typical squid or likely...

    Normal operating temperatur - 09 FZ6

    I apologize if this isn't the correct section for this question, but it seems to fit. I'm curious what "normal" operating temperature should be as indicated on the computer. Typically when I ride, it's in the afternoon between 70-80 degrees and is in and out of town, so some stoplights, but...

    Looking at buying an 05 FZ6

    OK so here's my story. My current lineup of bikes is a 2007 GSXR1000, 14 KTM RC8r 1190, & a Honda CRF250L. I was/am totally happy with that lineup and was not interested at all in (well I'm always interested in adding bikes to the garage but...you know) adding any bikes to my garage...until my...

    Thanks to all.

    I've been coming here ever since I bought my '07 FZ6 new nine years ago. Although I never posted much I always tuned in to see what was happening and get the latest info on the bike and it's riders. I can honestly say that the FZ has performed flawlessly over the years. It rates up there as one...

    Wrecked '07FZ6-Is it time to streetfighter?

    Hey All! A few months ago y'all were very kind in welcoming me and giving me advice on how to handle my new FZ6. Unfortunately, it's now half of an FZ6. The skinny of it is a pedestrian ran out in front me crossing a five lane road, and I was met with the classic "squirrel crossing the...
