Seems as though people install a PC to take advantage of improved intake and exhaust flow. Does anyone here run a PC with the stock setup, and if so have you found it to be useful? Did you set it and forget it, or do you find yourself changing tunings occasionally?
Hello everybody from frozen Russia! And pardon my english skills, they are getting worse each time I write here.
I want to install short grip on throttle, so I can twist my hand on lower angle and get full throttle (attachment 2). One guy in our community recently made such mod with a grip...
Hi,
After last ride noticed lumpy and high idle on my FZ6 and decided to check all the vacuum hoses for leaks. Found 1-st cylinder throttle balancer hose hanging split, which was repaired with ease and then noticed throttle to inlet joints badly cracked-all 4. After removal there were no...
Well I didn't crash land but somehow this little dragonfly landed under my seat and never left! He seems completely intact. Perhaps a tad dehydrated?
What a strange place to fly into and die under the FZ6 seat.
I was pulling the rear wheel for install of a new Dunlop Sportmax Q3+ after...
Hi
My ass and I have decided that the time is nigh for a more comfortable seat when we do long touring.
What I miss is a seat that is a bit higher than the standard, and distributes the load more evenly over the seat. I am 185cm btw.
I have found a company (Bagster seats) that will do a...
Itty bitty trivial issue..
This past weekend I decided to remove the warning sticker about "read the manual and wear a helmet" that was mounted on the gas tank just forward of the fill cap. It was getting yellowed from spills.
So I took a razor blade to it then used mineral spirits to rub...
I was looking for a Rizoma metal front fender for my Virago bike. It is around $150 in many web sites. But then i came across a strange site that sells it for $44.
Then i also found Fz6 Did chain for $40 in the same site.
Also offers free international shipping. So do you think is it...
Hey guys,
My FZ6 was clearly left outside for alot of its life, and the plastic screen over the actual screen on the gauge. Has anyone found a way to replace it without having to replace the entire unit?
This is the first one I found If I dont find one cheaper I am going to buy and can let you guys know if you wish. I have bought items from aliexpress before.
Here is the bag retail

Yesterday I arrived from Toronto to beloved Sarasota, FL. Took Uber to our place counting on my trusty FZ6 sitting in garage. Before going to sleep I plugged in battery charger to get it ready for tomorrow. Normally I keep it on all the time but this time it was unplugged for 2 months. More...
Looking to replace my chain and researched o-ring vs x-ring chains. The x-ring chains seem to offer up more efficiency for a bigger price.
What chains do you recommend? I was looking at the DID brand
These are the options I found...
After many months of research and numerous test rides, I finally decided on an FZ6. Rode a 2004 that I though was great but not perfect. Then I found a 2007 with a few nice mods. Perfect condition!
Hoping for some dry weather in Portland over the next few weeks. Not very likely... :(
Joep our cat was killed on Monday night/ Tuesday morning.
He was poisoned by a guy in the street who put down poisoned chicken on a patch of public ground, next to his house. There has been 4 other cats who have been killed and a couple missing.
As you can imagine I'm devastated, especially...

I have been away from this lovely community for sometime, but I have to say it feels good to be back. The motivation for me to turn on the computer is the bike. Yes this means it was turned the wrong way. Apparently the wheels have to always stay in contact with the road. Crazy who would design...
Hi, just picked up a new to me 04 fz6 over the weekend. Funny thing happened while researching the bike, I found this forum and found the original owner of the bike belongs to the site. I'll let you try and guess who he is. Here's a couple pics.
Previous owners have done a few things that...
Hi Guys
My 2007 FZ6 with 9,000 miles has a slight knocking sound coming from the engine when it's warm. It does it with the clutch in and out, and while in and out of gear. The noise is barely noticeable when the engine is cold, and it gets more pronounced as the engine temperature increases...
