Looking good, interested to see how this ends up looking

Just want to do a thanks for Gary for spending so much time supporting this forum, i don't comment often but i do lurk a lot.

not sure of the details, but i use generic dyed kero to clean my chains and have noticed no adverse effects

I agree with this, i have one because i liked the idea of a reusable serviceable filter, an the amount of cleaner i have will outlast the fizzer, but will not buy a new one for the next bike

so a bike that old if it has never had maintenance, i would do the fluids, brake lines possibly have some moisture, the cooling system because why not it is easy to do, and of course the oil and filter

well done, glad it was a cheap fix

so do you thing the gear indicator is just a coincidence? Have you tried adding revs from the throttle body and not the grip, disconnect the cables so the grip doesn't move. the video sounds like a cut off switch and with that all being in the same piece it is an easy thing to isolate

This is a great response, my last car got to a stage where a new set of tyres were worth more than the car and then it w as a hard call until it stared to misfire at which stage you really have to go repair little niggles or make a big investment in a replacement. Many Fizzers will be getting to...

not as clean but an airhawk seat makes a world of difference, also it makes you that much higher that helps your legs (well atleast mine) on longer rides

welcome, some of the bikes including mine a getting older, reg/recs do have a lifespan to them, and hopefully this is your issue as its a quick easy fix

Glad you are okay and walked away from it with little damage

i just have the rear brake on to lock the back wheel, but i like this wood idea

Nice work, thanks for sharing

if it is really stiff your clutch cable may be going, try lubing it and if unknown age it is a consumable you may as well replace

so you do lose that power if you go to an MT07, but the power in the MT is much lower in the rev range. you basically have full torque in the mt at 4000 rpm, the fz6 is not until around 10,000 rpm. and the fz6 doesnt actually have a lot more torque, just top end HP. and i think up until 8000 rpm...
