Just bought a 2007 FZ6. It doesn't have front or rear turn signals, so I'm thinking about stopping by CycleGear and just picking up some cheap front signals and a fender eliminator kit that includes rear signals. Would they have these parts that would fit the FZ6?
Also looking for a belly...

Hey guys looking for advice on an 2006 fz6 with 13500 kms. Just purchased bike 2 weeks ago and i notice a slight howling noise that starts at 70 km/h and gets loudest at 78-80 km/h and starts to quiet up at about 85 km/h but do i still hear it at 100km/h as well. Doesn't matter what gear i am in...
Hello hello!
I'm concerned that my rear tire valve is not ok, even though the mechanic has assured me it is.
Story here is that my rear tire was leaking, and neither I nor the mechanic (Lane's Yamaha, who I've always regarded highly) could find the leak. Very slow leak, like 1psi every...

Hi all,
I bought the R6 forks and brakes from Tom here on the forum. They came with R6 calipers, axle and shims. The forks were just rebuilt with new seals and had 1kg springs installed, which are perfect for my fat self (220lbs). I then spent over a month drooling over the parts because...
I'm 5 7' and have to lean slightly forward to reach the bars. It's never put an ache in my back but after seeing everyone compliment the comfort after installing risers I decided to try a pair. At around 30 bucks I didn't have much to lose. The risers I purchased are 30mm up/20mm back. I'm...
Goals are simple. A bit of extra umph in the lower RPMS, not a wheelie machine (not yet at least :D. I do not ride on the highway and rarely go over 80 mph. Thankfully this bike gets out of first around 55mph, but even then I find myself climbing up those RPMs to get that power on the street...
Yesterday was a boat load of maintenance on the front of the FZ6. Having recently acquired the bike and having looked it over it was going to need some maintenance and upgrades to get it to my spec. For some reason the person that serviced the front brakes thought that if a little grease on...
I saw the turn signal help thread but didnt want to hijack it with mine as my problem is kinda the same but different. The turn signals on the right side work both front and back but the left side nothing front and back but the front left one lights up when I start the bike. running lights work...
Hello, I'm left with an extra set of 03-05 R6 brake calipers which I will sell locally.
There are many bikes, such as the FZ6 S2 (the S1 has different mounting holes), early R1, R6, Road star, etc- pretty much everything that is Yamaha, axial, and has the two painted spline circles have (at...
A lot of strange technique here. Got his front pulled out from under himself. Maybe the rider is in an altered state?

Noticed a weird squeaky, siren-like sound at highway speeds near the front of the bike. Thought it was the front bearing so had the replace and still hear it. Any ideas?
I am around 13K miles on my PR4s on my 05 FZ6. Rear looks pretty solid based on wear indicators but I can probably could get a few more K from the front but I think my front bearing needs replacement (started hearing squeak sounds) so debating just doing the front (PR4s are out of stock...
Bought this during the summer. Definitely a fixer-upper, but it ran/was rideable. Due to some unexpected circumstances, I ended up with 3 bikes... my neighbor gave me an '82 XJ750 Maxim project to fix up (non-running). That took awhile, but got it running and addressed some issues, sold via...
Hi, i am a new owner of an 04 fz6, it has 42k miles on it with a yoshimure exhaust, it runs amazing, has all the power i think it should
But there is only one issue with the bike i cant figure out, when accelerating, or revving the engine, i hear a ticking noise from the front end, noticed it...
Am new to your site and bought and 2006 FZ 600 twin under tail exhaust model about a year ago. The bike was a brand new one owner bike that was traded back to my local dealer in San Diego with 617 original miles. A deal too good to pass up. I have ridden street and dirt all my life and have...
