Norwegian here. Just bought a bike that has the same problem. 2008 fz6-s(S1). Same conditions, happened after winter hibernation two years ago. Previous owners had the speedo unit changed. Problem went away, but reappeared on new speedo unit this year. These are the faults on my bike:
- 5k RPM on idle.
- speed shows approx triple.
- fuel gauge either shows full or empty, nothing in between.
- odometer counts wrong, probably due to the speed measured.
I have measured voltage on the battery. 12.26v when bike not running. 14.04v when revving it a bit.
What I did try, which surprises me, is when putting meter in "connectivity mode", ie beeping mode - I get beeping when I put multimeter black probe on battery negative and red probe on battery positive. Did the same test on a AAA battery. I did not get beeping putting red on + and black on -, but when I turned it opposite it beeped. I am not sure it's a valid test or not. Tried disconnecting fuses one by one and measuring if the beeping stopped, but no. Even with main fuse out it beeped. Heeeelp
