FIZZER6
The Angry Blue Mantis
Tonight I start the tear down of my trusty 06 FZ6!
On the list for the next 2 weeks:
1. Remove forks; Change oil to 5Wt. & change seals
2. Replace steering head bearings with All Balls roller type.
3. Replace tires with new Michelin Road 2's
I plan to do a write up on the fork oil change since there doesn't appear to be a good 2004-2009 FZ6 specific writeup with lots of pictures. There's more information on the steering head bearings though so I won't detail that part.
Here's the writeup on Fork Oil/Seal changing! Link to FORK OIL & SEAL DIY thread: http://www.600riders.com/forum/how-to-s-/54664-04-09-fz6-fork-oil-seal-replacement.html
Anyone interested be sure to comment in this thread for future reference as I will link the write-up in here when I'm done! :thumbup:
For the rest of you procrastinating that winter maintenance it's getting to be mid winter! Get on with it!
