Yamaha FZ6 Engine Guard

[bd43]

When I purchased my bike, I wanted the Yamaha engine guard to protect my baby. I had to special order it so could not see what they were like nor could I find the instruction manual on any web site anywhere. Well, I did finally get them, but returned them earlier this week. It appears that the guard will block the oil filter on the left side . This would mean having to remove the guard every time an oil filter change is required. Forget that idea. In the meantime, I'm still looking for some frame sliders that I like and will probably turn it into a winter job. I managed to scan the instructions in case anyone is interested in purchasing one of these.

that is so ugly compared to frame sliders....

These look better, and may or may not block the filter.
I met a guy with a FZ1 that had mounted aux pegs on them so he had another place to put his feet.

where did you source the subframe from?

I had the extra sub-frame left over after I wrecked it and bent the first one. long story on that one though.

I had them on mine for the first year. You dont have to take them off to do an oil change, but you need the shorter filter, and it takes a little patience and persuasion.
