    My name is Mack. I just got a naked version 2010 FZ6 S2 from a friend in the U.K. I'm not really into bikes when I was younger and just learned to ride 3 years ago. There are a lot of things that I still don't know so please bear with me. I hope we can all get along. Thanks!

    06 FZ6 Overhaul (primary)

    So, not so long ago in a town far too far away... I was an owner of a pretty good looking 06 FZ6. Got it in 2010 for 5k and was a summer rider (Washington state isnt exactly a year round riding state). A couple years ago, I had moved and with it wanted to overhaul the bike. Sadly though, it...

    New Member: Hello

    Hello I have just recently joined this forum a week or so ago because I was debating whether or not to buy an FZ6. After reading many of the discussions on here, I decided to buy one. Just two days ago I bought a 2008 fz6 for a great price! I've only ridden it less than 10 miles but I can tell...

    New member, old bike...

    Just took the MSF course a few weeks ago (first time on a motorcycle of any kind, ever at 50!), bought an 05 FZ7 one week ago, and have ridden it 10-20 miles a days learning what I am doing. I joined up here because it looks like a great resource and community. Jim

    Those that have upgraded seats do you feel a difference on short or long distances?

    Saw a corbin a month ago on ebay for 250 thought of getting it but then the auction timed out.

    are parts generally hard to get?

    Bought a 2005 FZ6 about three weeks ago. Took it to my local/independent mechanic, who discovered that whoever put the rear wheel on last, tightened down the axle out of alignment, then cross-threaded the axle nut on, and then forced it (likely with an impact wrench). He had to cut the nut...

    It has been awhile...

    It has been so long I can't even remeber the last post I did, probbably 3-4 years ago. Life (mainly my job) got in the way and free time spent on forums became scarce. A week ago I found an old FZ6-forum T-shirt, and I thought of everyone here. While I won't be as active as I once was, I...

    Felt a clunk

    .. so this morning I am out for a little ride, and I think I felt a little clunk once or twice when hitting a bump. Nothing really loud, and certainly uneventful, but I want to make sure that nothing serious is going on. I believe that it is in the rear, but it is so small and so fast that i...

    2007 FZ1 - Mods and luggage

    My FZ1 is for sale, I've moved on to a bigger and more powerful summer daily driver. I've owned several bikes and this is one I kept for more than a season or two. I put ~25k miles on it, daily driver and travel touring for 4+ seasons. It'll be sad to see it go. Price is updated on the...

    Mix and match anti freeze.

    Hey guys, I have track day tomorrow, oil is fine, but anti freeze, the overfil reservoir is empty. I don't remember what my mechanic put last time, in November, 4k miles ago. Can I use Peak long life, 50/50 to top it off? I don't want to drain the current one and redo again, so, mixing is good...

    Last effort before just getting rid of the headache...or taking to mechanic

    I posted before with the 04 fz6 I'm thinking I have a weak spark/electrical issue. Bike won't run, the only times I've had it run are when I installed a brand new battery ( about a month ago ) and when I've replaced the starter relay ( 3 days ago ) both times when it's ran its only stayed on...

    Day saved by FZ parts! lol

    "Clicking" felt through foot pegs

    Greetings. I noticed a “pulse” through my foot pegs a month ago and am having a hard time figuring out what it is. Symptoms: 1) Happens only when clutch is in 2) Happens above 20 MPH 3) Feels like a “click” or a “pulse” in the pegs. At 25 MPH, it happens “about” one per second. 4) Does...

    Speedometer corrector problem

    My 06 FZ6 is making me crazy! Short-story-long Years ago I re-geared (15-48) and it made the speedo even worse than stock. So I bought a SpeedoHealer v3 and set it up. No problems with it at all until late last fall. It started to lose its settings so that the speedo always read 0, no...

    Hard to start - revisited

    My bike's been misbehaving the last few days. Leaving the office today it cranked (quickly) for 4 seconds.. nothing. Started right up on 2nd try. Few days ago (1st cold morning), it started right up and immediately died. Would not re-start on 2nd try. Restarted on 3rd. I let it idle for 20...

    2008 fz6

    Up for sale is my 2008 Yamaha FZ6. The bike is bone stock except for a K&N air filter that I installed less than 500 miles ago. The bike had its chain adjusted, oil and filter changed, and brand new tires installed less than 500 miles ago as well. Bike runs and rides great and sits on Michelin...
