    Color of front screen of the wheel.

    Color of front fender of the wheel. i'm a little puzzled. I got my FZ6 2006 back from the shop yesterday, where they changed the broken front screen for the wheel. They mounted an original very dark blue one. Now, as I recall,l the one that I had before was more pitch black. The paint code...

    FZ6 on short list....Perhaps a nudge?

    I couldn't agree more with you, havblue... you will look hard and long to find a bike more diverse... Yes, the motor does throw some sounds at you, but for me it's what an fz6 shall sound like. it's part of the DNA of the bike, you might say. bottom line: it will probably be the bike buy I will...

    How many of you experience ticking from the engine?

    Hey. I'm curious to know how many of you fz6 owners experience ticking sound from the engine (most likely valve ticking, or fuel injector ticking, or a combination, and I have heard it is normal for this engine ) Please state your model, and the rev area with the most noticeable ticks...

    Cam Chain tensioning

    Hey... my 06 bike also make the ticking noice @ around 3000-4300 rpms. At around 3700 it's the worst. I wouldn't worry to much about it though. it's probably the valve heads hitting the conic seats on the top of each sylinder, as can be heard in many cars. It oftens helps to add a ticking...

    unwanted sound appeared after service

    hey folks! I did some research and it seems like the chain touches the outer wall of the teeth of the front sprocket when it does the loop. I have loosened the chain tension and tried to align the wheel more so that the chain doesn't touch the teeth's outer wall, and the sound has become...

    unwanted sound appeared after service

    Well the tire is a metzeler roadtec z6 and it looks like this: METZELER - Metzeler: Catalogue - Roadtec Z6 The sound does not originate from the tire since the sound is present when you spin the back wheel of the ground with motor power. Also then you hear the same sound...:confused: i'm...

    unwanted sound appeared after service

    Yes, I have allready done this, and they came to the same conclusion as I, that it originates from the drive set; chain, sprockets, wheel- or crankshaft-bearings etc.) but they bet most on the front drive sprocket. But I am still insecure. :confused: The funny thing is that this sound...

    unwanted sound appeared after service

    Hey.. on Monday i had my fz-6 fazer '06 on 10000km service. On my way home i noticed a buzzing sound from the engine area that pitches in accordance with the speed (not the revs) and it is felt as a tiny high frequency vibration through all of the bike. Since the sound is pitched in...

    07 upper fairing

    thanks for that! I haven't got hold of a Fz6 yet, but i'm dead certain that this is the bike i'll start with. U c I'm currently doing my licence:Sport: I'm in a bit of a doubt whether I should buy the new spec2 07 model, or an older one though. Does anyone have first hand experience with the...

    07 upper fairing

    Ok, but the shape of the headlights on the 06 is the same as on the 07, aren't they? Haven't noticed any difference on pics though. And will the old instrument panel conflict with anything behind the 07 fairing?

    07 upper fairing

    Hi, I would like to exchange the upper fairing of a Fz6 06 model with the upper new design fairing of the Fz6 s2 07 model. Is this possible? And if so, where can I get hold of this 07 fairing?
