    Understanding brake rotor/disc thickness

    Discs are usually really slow-wearing items unless you use sintered pads on discs not made for it. As for why, I would guess heat dissipation worsens and risk of the disc cracking increases

    Need Help FZ6 coolant reservoir/expansion tank hose routing

    Yup, though apparently an S2 FZ6 engine judging by the overflow tank position and shape? Are there any markings on the engine I could check to get a bit more info?

    Need Help FZ6 coolant reservoir/expansion tank hose routing

    Hello everyone, I'm yzrfz6 and while it's not quite an FZ6 it turns out the 2001 R6 I bought is somewhat of a Frankenstein machine with an FZ6 engine (I'm not sure what year) running on R6 carbs. Gives me a bit of a headache as I spent more time fixing stuff on it instead of riding it but it's...
