I just bought an 08 fz6 and put about 50 miles on it so far today... got a few Q's... Thank you very much in advance for any tips you have for me... new street bike rider former enduro rider.
*feel free to just answer one of these questions or more!
1) How long should I let the bike warm up for in the morning before riding it my 30 mile commute to work?
2) How do i engage the steering lock that comes on the bike? It seems when I turn it to the lock position i cant withraw the key so i feel like its not working?
3) What is the best rpm to let out first gear from a stop light to prevent clutch wear?
4) Any good tips you have for me this is my first sport type bike, I have only owned an xr600 previously and some dirtbikes when I was younger
5) The bike has about 2800 miles what types of servicing should I be doing?
Sorry I didnt get a owners manual when I bought the bike and I cant seem to download one properly without getting sent to a survey site having me answer pepsi vs. coke questions :Flash:
