Hi all, new to this forum as I only bought my 2006 fz6 lately.
I bought an exhaust off eBay for it but I’m struggling to figure out the brackets that came with it. I know what they’re for (securing the cans to the bike) but because of their shape I can’t figure out how to do it, can anyone help please?
Hi fellow Fazer riders. I bought my FZ6S S2 new at the end of 2008 and now approaching 70,000km joyfully with no real issues. Done a few minor mods and routine maintenance and it's only stopped a couple of times when the battery died and needed replacement. Been retired for almost 4 years now and intend to keep my bike as long as I'm still riding. I live near the city of Sydney in Australia.
Hi guys I'm new to the group. I have just started my 08 fazer up first time for a couple of months. I let it run for a while and as stated in other posts, it started spewing the coolant out of a breather pipe. Need to look at the fanswitch, fan and water pump. Just wondering where do you guys get your parts from in the UK please? Cheers K
Looking at my FZ6 after a while. Need a road worthy certificate in Victoria Australia.
Change after market muffler to something big and fat. Thinking about lowering the footpegs for a bit more leg space.
About cam chain change, you've written there are 3 guides to change. But still confused about the 3th guide.
Can you send me a document about it, i can't find that part here :
I seem to have a lag between throttle response and when chain gets power or tension. It felt like a loose chain slack but that is not the case. It makes for jerky shifting at lower power “ just cruising” speeds. Not sure how much slack in transmission is acceptable. I turn the wheel in gear on the stand and has quite a bit of rotation between forward and reverse rotation.
I bought a 2005 wrecked bike. Basically cosmetic damage. I needed a speedometer and headlight so I went with the 2007 S2 and have gotten the wire harness spliced and works. Will the speedometer bracket for the 2007 work on the 2005’s front forks to mount the headlight? I don’t believe they changed out the forks between years.
Hope you and the family are doing great! Saw the forum is locked and I'll assume your fixing or upgrading. Pretty quiet these days except a few signups that get pushed to the approval que.
Thank you for keep out forum alive!

Thanks for having me.
So my 2008 FZ6S has 70k on it and the engine runs tight the only issue I have is the clutch is a little noisy when released, quieter when the clutch is operated to select the gear.
Other than that the clutch works perfectly fine with no slip and full engagement.
I'm thinking it's time to start thinking about a new clutch kit, what is your advice please
Kind regards Robert
Here is the 3rd timing chain guide I was talking about. It attaches to the underside of the cam cover. Open the link below and check (no. 15)
