Hi lads and ladies. :thumbup:
New member from Radelaide here...I've introduced myself in the new Members section, so I'll try not to repeat myself too much.
I bought an 06 FZ6N for the Mrs on Monday. It was 7,000kms old and cost $5K, but it had been neglected....
It needed new tyres, oil & filter, brake fluid, coolant, air filter check and clean, and a thorough dismantle/clean/lube/reassemble. I had that done by Wednesday arvo, so I took it to Lobie to scrub in the tyres...
And now it's refreshed, what a brilliant little machine! I really enjoyed it.
BUT....I had to hand it over...

And here's my girl on her first ride in 3 years...like a duck to water.
I have crash posts, tapered roller head stem bearings and cups, and fork seals on the way. One fork is weeping slightly, and I want to piss the OEM water they put in the forks, off. And I really need to release some noise and address the snatchy throttle. I can ride around it, but she will struggle to....so I guess a PCIII and some slip-ons are in order.
I'd rather spend a little extra for a quality system, than pay Redline extortionate amounts of $...So if anyone knows of some used mufflers going, please let me know.
Cheers muchly.
Ben.
