I already have the pads. My parents are real safety freaks. They throw parts and gear at me all the time. As of right now, I still have pads and brake fluid in stock (Christmas presents). Going to have to buy the stuff for a coolant flush and figure out a fork oil change and it looks like I'm set!

Also wanted to add that the oil filter, oil, and air filter were Christmas presents. I didn't have time to swap out the air filter but I did give my girl a good wash and an oil change. I have no idea what the previous owner had but I did at least see upon purchase the receipt for the last oil...

Yeah, I have a lot to get done. I'm a student and I have very little spare money. BTW my bike is an '06 but it only has 9k miles which is pretty low for almost being 10 years old. Next on my list is to 1.) Flush and replace brake fluid, replace brake pads. 2.) Flush and replace coolant. 3.) Try...

Lubbock Texas is a SEVERE dustbowl. I chose this filter for the ability to clean it myself. I predict that air filter swaps / cleaning will be very frequent.

My bike is a 06. I live in Lubbock Tx and like all west Texas weather things are very volatile. In the summer we can get to 110 F and in the winter we can get down to 5 F. Also I ride all year round. I have all season gear to make up for the hot and the cold but I think that for all intents and...

I will exchange it. Thank you.

I ride a 06' FZ6 and I am doing a little maintenance soon. Going to do a oil change and swap out the air-filter for a new one. I want to post the products I have and hear feedback as to if these products are adequate, or if there is something else to consider. oil: 10w30 Penzoil Ultra (Ultra...

Yeah but at that point all someone has to do is have 2 guys stick 2 baseball bats between the spokes and just slap it in the back of a truck. take it apart and sell it for parts :{

Unfortunately I am moving. I have to take all my stuff with me including some furniture. Riding it is not an option :P

I couldn't find a good sub forum for this so I decided to put it in general. I found a guy on craigslist selling a ramp that I like. I will also absolutely need one as I have to move my bike (06 fz6) 360 miles. I do have a nice pickup though (02 ram 1500). Take a look at this and let me know...

I was born and raised in Dallas Texas but 2 years ago I moved to Lubbock Texas to go to school (Texas Tech University). About a month ago I bought my first bike, 06 fz6, all stock, 6k miles, perfect condition, $3700. Anyways I am afraid of getting my bike stolen for when I move back to Lubbock...

Nooby question, but how do I tell what precise rpm it is idle's at? The gage isn't incredibly precise. I feel as though I would have a hard time getting it right at 1350 without some other type of tool / knowledge

Thanks for the information. I'm glad nothing is wrong with my bike. Or at least I hope that's true. What you've told me seems to convince me that it's not the bike. I'm just operating it outside the perimeters it is designed to be operated. I just have a hard time believing that an 06 with 6k...

No. The car WAS NOT RUNNING. I DID let the car run for about 20 seconds JUST to make sure that the car would not be drained but only after about 10 minutes of charging. Yes it does get to about 13.5 at around 3-4k rpm. No both headlights DO NOT RUN. And sorry for covered topics. I am...

I just purchased a 06 Yamaha FZ6, 6800 miles, and PERFECT condition. Not a scratch on the thing. I had 2 other people besides my self check every nook and cranny for anything suggesting it may have been dropped. Nothing. Anyways, went out to look at it, drove it around for a while and every...
