    FZ6 2006 - Frame crack help!

I have cleaned the paint around it and found that bike was probably crashed and repainted to cover it. I need advice on how to repair it or should I sell it in spare...

    Hi everyone. My bike is missing one of the two head screws, the one on the upper steering bearing. Maybe someone has one screw of those? They are security torx.

    Frame and engine colors

    So I'm looking at purchasing another FZ6 from someone. They have listed it as a 2006. The frame, and swing arm are black like the 2006's, but the engine block is the aluminum/silver color like the older models. I'm assuming it's a replacement engine, but is there a possibility someone could...

    Does anyone know the purpose of this part?

    Does it serve another purpose other than covering the frame?

    partially cracked frame at slider

    My used 07 FZ6 has a hairline crack just above the right side slider that does not appear to go all the way across the member. Obviously it happened when the previous owner dropped it or went down. I wonder how concerned I should be about this. My use is limited mostly to in-town and I don't...
