Hey, I'm new to the boards and this is my first post. I recently bougth a used 2008 FZ6 with about 15,000 miles on it as my first bike. I've been experiencing some issues that make it very hard to ride. The main issue is that it stalls very easy when starting off from a stop. Makes it near impossible to drive around in traffic because there's no telling when it will actually go into first or just stall. It also stalls on occasion when down shifting from 3rd to 1st and I have to start it while it's coasting with the engine off. The bike also seems to be using an excessive amount of gas. I've read some other posts about these same issues being with the Throttle position sensor but I tested it and it is within spec. Another possible fault I've heard is it may be the Dyno Jet computer being mapped incorrectly, could this possibly be an issue? I've ordered a new TPS just to try anyways and made an appointment to have it dynotested this Monday but I don't want to just keep pouring money into it blindly. Any help is very much appreciated! For now I'm only going on late nite rides where I know theres no traffic so I don't embarass myself stalling at a light lol
