adjustment

Hi All, Running into an issue lately. Tried installing the killernoodle mod (actually its the FZ07 clutch slave lever) and for some reason I can't get the clutch to disengage. Currently the bike is on its center stands. I have the clutch lever and mid adjustment screwed all the way in (mid...

Found these cheap throttle body balancing gauges, question is to buy or not and try to use them? Anyone know if they might work on our bikes? I don't want to pay 15 times a much for something ill only use once and may even need no adjustment at all...

Gas is getting into the oil and overfilling the oil reserve tank and constantly fouling my third cylinder spark plug. Here is what a shop has done so far: checked valves, no adjustment needed, did a throttle body sync., adjustment needed and thought this would solve my problem, injector fine...

Hello Friends, I just wanted to send out a quick reminder to everyone for whenever they are working on something important. DON'T GET DISTRACTED BY OTHERS. I was diligently working on my valve adjustment (only needed to do 1 exhaust valve thankfully) while having two different people text me at...

I want to tinker with the CO adjustment on my 05, but I cannot get into adjustment mode. I am thinking the FSM has an error or omission. Mine says to hold SELECT and RESET pressed while turning key on. When I do that, I go to DIAG mode, which jives with the manual. However, pressing SELECT...

Hi, I picked up my barn find 2005 FZ6 and have been hunting on here for anything about adjusting the chain. Ive found some threads about cleaning the chain and the correct amount of slack, however I was hoping an experienced owner could post a how to for chain adjustment. My bike did not come...

Just checked my clearances and it looks like there are a few that need some adjustment. Can anyone confirm that the size is in fact 9.48mm? I was going to order the hotcams shim pack to make it easy to get them all within spec. For anyone wondering the clearances are below. Thanks...

Hi folks, I just picked up a 2004 FZ6 over the weekend and I'd love to know what you guys n gals have found you need for home maintenance. Everything is out of adjustment, none of the fluids are at the correct level. I want to change all the fluids, lube everything, and bring everything into...

I adjusted my throttle cable free play today and "followed the service manual to the letter" After removing the air box and bat I noticed that on the left side of the bike you can get to the adjustment very easy and make all the adjustments without having to remove the tank,air box,and bat...

I got a quote from one local shop (it's the place last time i went to for front tire replacement). They can do the Valve adjustment for $275 (maybe + some sim $$ if it's needed as for parts). It takes them 2 days for the work. BTW, some SoCAL rider knows other good place to get valve...

I adjusted my chain yesterday since purchasing it from the previous owner. The chain slack was able to hit the bottom of the rubber swing arm chain guide, so I didn't bother to measure the slack. I adjusted it using the tick marks near the aluminum chain adjuster block. I then measured and it...

Just wanted to post that after scouring the forums for the proper way to tension the chain, I found out that I had been improperly tensioning my chain since I bought the bike in April. I thought that the noise (whine) coming from the bike when I eased off the throttle with the engine still in...
