    Blown Engine Come Back

    I had posted back in April seeking help after losing power suddenly on the highway. That post was accidentally deleted. Observations among other things were badly burned spark plugs. The electrodes were just gone. It's amazing that it ran as long as it did. I suspected it was running...

    Hiccup in power delivery accelerating in 2nd. very troubling.

    Hey all, I need experts. Sometimes (hard to repeat), when I'm accelerating hard in 2nd gear, there is an abrupt stop/start to power delivery that lasts less than half a second. The engine tone doesn't change much, so it seems like it has to be something in the transmission. How bad a thing am...

    DIY Hard Side Bags

    Here are my DIY Hard Side Cases. I am very happy with the outcome. They are approximately 18''x16''x7''. They are waterproof, shockproof and only a fraction of the cost of a GIVI set or any other major brand. I used the soft bags Givi Racks and picked up hardware from my local hardware store...

    Funny grinding/clicking under hard acceleration

    As title, there is often a few clicky sounds under hard acceleration from a stop light. I didn't find out about it until I changed my chain recently, as there was other noise from the worn chain (apparently) that was masking it. I did not change the sprockets, because they actually still look...

    How many G's at acceleration? ;)

    As dumb as it might seem I've been wondering how many G's do we get when accelerating hard on FZ6? The thought came to my mind when recently, while going really hard from 0 on the 1st gear at around 9k rpms when the bike was pulling really hard and fast I've noticed that my head is giving up -...
