I've actually been looking for some parts for my bike and it looks like OEM PARTS AND ACCESSORIES YAMAHA, SUZUKI, KAWASAKI, HONDA is the cheapest place that I can find to pick them up. The Yamaha parts finder is easy to use, but if you need any help finding the parts give me a shout.
Welcome John, I'm in Northern VA pretty often, Winchester/Leesburg area. This is definitely the site to learn about the FZ6.
We should get a ride in some time.
I probably was a bit close, and should have expected that someone might turn. Also should have swerved around him and sped up to get out of the opposing lane of traffic, but none of that happened at the time.
Thanks for the tips on the stator cover. Will probably just order a new one, and...
Soooo...
I was riding to class today, and the guy in front of me decided to got from 35 mph to 0 mph with no blinker. It was either run directly into the back of his car and fly down the hill, or lay it down and pray. So I laid it down. I'm good, but the bike has seen better days. Pics follow...
Nice looking ride! I think I have the same case and windscreen from the looks of the picture. I would add a BD43 headlight cable, and a Gold WV on the side!
I just bought mine a few weeks back. It is really easy to ride, but definetly practice the clutch on the FZ6 before you take it on the roads. I've never ridden a bike with a clutch this bad. I've gotten used to it, and I love the bike, but I absolutely hate the clutch.
Man, if I would have known you were a brewer I would have ordered a growler of some home brew to help me out while I worked on the bike. Oh well.
Thanks for the quick shipment of the kit, got the email today.
I actually just did the BD43 mod today when I got home from work. Took about 30 minutes, and I had never taken the bike apart before. I used a pair of pliers, a 5mm and 4mm hex, and a 10mm socket. The install is very clean, and the cable he supplied is excellent quality.
Hello everyone,
I've been looking for a street bike for a few months, and with alot of help on this forum I finally decided on the FZ6. A buddy of mine cut me a great deal, so I got a 2008 FZ6 with less than 7k miles. I've read about all kinds of mods I want to do, but I think I'm gonna put...
Has anyone tried out throat mic systems? We use these for comms all of the time, but I have never tried one on a motorcycle. They eliminate all background noise, wind, etc. I've tried out many of these systems and Iasus seem to hold up the best. They even make one for motorcycle use, and it has...
Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to make sure this was a possibility without having any metal fabrication tools. It looks like partshark is the cheapest place for me to pick up these parts. How does the headlight hold up to the wind? Any vibrations at high speeds...
