I bought some of the raved about Iridium plugs and was wondering what gap people have used when installing these on their FZ6. The NGK website recommends .032 for the factory plug and the iridium plug in this application while the emissions sticker on the swingarm recommends .028 I believe...
I have chronicled my debacles with the FZ6 which I love through the curb accident that necessitated the oil pan replacement to the funnel that was left in the oil filler hole and I am proud to announce that I have finally fixed the whole thing! The piece of the funnel that was cut off by the...
