Where to begin? I won't lead the witness but if you know who the subject line refers too and for example, your ISP speed sucks and you by chance used a utility to check your speed and found it was ahhhhhh, lets say 70 to 80% lower than what you PAY FOR..... Keep reading! - ya, I swear there...

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 all, did K&n filter install but forgot to check if it had anything on it about airflow direction. Before I take apart I figure I would ask the board. Does k&n filter has the air flow direction on it or does it not matter? Thanks!

Replaced my brake (yay easy) and levers however when I loosened the clutch cable at the rear of the end of the cable, I am now unable to reattach it to the clip? Tried maneuvering best I could but no luck and didn't want to pull too tight. Any ideas? I've attached a picture if that helps...

Has anyone mounted a vSystem scottoiler or competitor to the FZ6? Are you happy with it? How was the install process and where did you put the reservoir?

Hi all, I'm going to be replacing my clutch this weekend and decided to go with the KG clutch because I have had nothing but good luck with them in my other bikes. After recieving the clutch I noticed that all the clutch plates and are the same with one not being bigger. Also all the friction...

I have been doing some reading up on the benefits of the FZ1 bar. This morning was rather wet outside, so I deemed it a perfect time to attempt this install. It was relatively straight forward and could be done with a few simple tools. As this is my first how-to write up, I do apologize in...

I really don't know what to say. It is a plug and play deal. Really good initial quality. Only "problem" I had is that you have to damn near disassemble the whole tail of the bike to install it. Zip ties are your friend due to the extra length of wire in the harness on the new light, which by...

Got my LV's from Italty to Oz in 3 days! Not the 21 they advised. Install went pretty well, then I decided to remove the dB killers.............. To cut a long story short, the install took me about 2 hours, then I spent 3 hours trying to insert two grub screws. I need to drill out a bit of...

I usually turn off engine at intersection(signal~red), the vehicle didn't start immediately. I observed a weird smell when I shifted the gears quickly(0-60 in ~5 seconds), did i fry something(but this happened this morning), the issue is from long back. I took it to autozone to test it, we...

Hello All, I am thinking of adding some auxiliary LEDs to the front on my bike for increased visibility. I've seen mentions here and there but no real thread (point me in the right direction if I am wrong). I'm not the most mechanically/electrically talented person around but I am pretty good...

Hi Guys, I'm new to the forum and I apologize in advance if this has been covered before but I've tried searching for some help and have come up short. I'm trying to install an R&G tidy tail fender eliminator kit to my 07 FZ6 and the instructions provided are a little vague to put it mildly -...

A guide on how to fix that off idle snatch! There are many complaints about off idle transition when getting back on the throttle to pull out of turn. Some would say its that little dead zone or jerk felt when getting back on the throttle which unloads the suspension upsetting the bike. This...

Hi all, I had my local dealership install a Soupy's lowering link but I think they performed the install incorrectly. I say this because a few months and a few hundred miles later, the threads on the bottom of the rear shock stripped off and came free from the lower mount. The...
