I honestly get too mad even typing about it, so I'm just gonna leave a bunch of pictures here as a memorial & say that there is a special place in Hell for bike thieves.

I just made a huge mistake. 1-10 how much of a pain is it gonna be too get this fixed? Can I ride it to the shop? Untitled by UncleSamMC, on Flickr Posting from my phone, so I'd image doesn't work, basically I cracked my engine around the oil drain plug

Got some cool POV glasses and made this vid the other day. Going to do something similar with the bike once we're warmed up. Can't wait! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ0mX_EQEVM

Does anybody else ride without one (excluding the naked guys)? Took mine off to get in a parking garage when it was in the bed of my truck, never ended up putting it back on. Looks better I think, plus it feels like I'm going even faster! :rockon:

OK, so I'm hoping this is just a lube issue but in case it's not, I'd like to get an idea of the next steps. Last night I was having some trouble riding home. I pull in the clutch to shift/stop- fine. No issues. But when I release, it no longer pops back out. I was having to physically push...

Noticed there was no video of this, so I made one. May be a good sticky. Yamaha Fz6: How to Change Your Coolant - YouTube

Made a post about this before, & a video was requested. Sound is new, as far as I know & not noticeable until after the engine is warmed up. This could be normal though. Warmed Up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlTZjx9TPE4 Pre-Ride: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzhipAFHhGk Normal? No?

EDIT: Please see this updated thread with video: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-g...ne-rattle.html (Engine Rattle) Hey- I remember noticing a bunch of Mass folks on here when I first got my fz6 last fall. My bike's recently developed a new buzz/rattling sound at idle. Not sure how...

Haven't placed any GoPro mounts on the Fz yet, wondering where yours are? I'm definitely doing the helmet, and on my old bike I had a mount on the flat top of the front fairing, under and in front of the right handlebar. Where's yours? Let's see some videos.

Messing with the bike this weekend really made me notice how new it is to me, and how little I know about it... My front blinkers have a bit of illumination at all times. When I signal one way or another, the correct one flashes but the other still stays on (at a very dim, barely noticeable...

took this thing off by mistake...screwed it back on tight though. I'll be ok, right?

So, I bought my bike at the end of last season. It's an 04, about 5k miles on it. I'm pretty sure the tires on it are the original Dunlops. When I had it inspected the guy said they'd be fine for another season. The front is scalloped a bit, but there's not much wear. I'm thinking just due...

Hey- so I'm planning a little roadtrip for this spring & need some bags for it. The Cortech/Tourmaster ones I had broke after a few uses (like all Cortech/TM products I've ever owned), so I'm in the market for a new set. Any recommendations? I'm looking for a soft set, and trying not to go...

Woke up this morning & my bike wouldn't start. I know the PO had had some battery issues, but that was due to not riding, thus not charging. I just rode Friday, so I assumed she'd have enough juice today. Anyway, I'm going to get a new battery & hopefully be right back on track. My question...

What's all this I see on here about headlight mods? Why not just ride with your high beams on? Then no one would tell you you had a light out. Or is the problem worse than that?

Hey All, I may be joining your ranks as an fz6 rider this weekend. Lost my GS prematurely due to a tourist from Oklahoma and the fz6 kept popping up in my search for a new bike. Finally saw one in person tonight & I think I'm going to buy it this weekend. Only hang up (other than the...
