Hi guys, I have just come across this company based in Italy who have pictures on there of an FZ6 with a side mounted exhaust.... Home - www.massmoto.com I guess my question is, is there an alternative to buying from here? Will the R6 exhaust fit the FZ6 because I understand the engine and...

I retired this bike and this is the last trip to Phoenix before it died. Now I just put a low mileage engine in it and will start the assembly for my son.

As the title states, I've recently developed a cold start tick that originates under the upper right side valve cover. Its only when the engine is cold and goes away within 2 seconds of starting. Oil has been 7100 and was recently changed. The engine is quiet the rest of time, runs...

Hey, I just bought a 2006 FZ6 with 12,000 miles on it. However, after about a week of riding it I semi-frequently stall as I'm stopping at a light or a traffic signal. From reading around this would seem to be a TPS issue. But the bike also sometimes has a problem starting up, the starter will...
