Nice job!!!!! That seat looks incredible on the bike. Let us know what you think about it over time. Do you need that big of a plate in the back where you live?
Will this speedometer work properly on 04' Fz6?

I like the analog tach and would also like like to get the fairing from a fz1.
You can up and downshift clutchless at ''almost'' any RPM with a bike. Although there is an ''idea'' range when it should be done. When done properly ''little pressure on the shifter, ease off the throttle-upshift, blip the throttle-downshift, you can actually feel the gearbox ''pull'' itself...
Battle scars!!!!!! If your bike could type it would be on this forum typing ''Guess what I did today, man it was great, can't wait to go back and do it again''. ''Hey Mom wheres the band-aids''.
Welcome, you sound like me (learn through failure). Good luck with your build. I'm doing a rebuild on a NFM 04' fz6. Lotta info on the sight, years worth of trial and error and expertise.
Slippiong the clutch a little helps me, Every bike I've ever ridden does the same thing at times. Always a good idea to stay in 1st when stopped, saved me once or twice.
Gonne have to hold off for now, wifeys wiggin on me for all the stuff I'm ordering already. Bought the bike and told her it would be 3-400 to get it roadworthy, already at 6+. Hopefully you'll still be doin this later and Ill get back with ya. BTW where you at in WWWV, got alot of Family in...
