My name is Mack. I just got a naked version 2010 FZ6 S2 from a friend in the U.K. I'm not really into bikes when I was younger and just learned to ride 3 years ago. There are a lot of things that I still don't know so please bear with me. I hope we can all get along.
Thanks!
A lot of strange technique here. Got his front pulled out from under himself. Maybe the rider is in an altered state?

I don't have a lot of track experience (1 CS course) but interested in converting my current 05 FZ6 commuter into a dedicated track bike. I heard it is better to start on a 300 for a track bike and it's a lot cheaper (tires go through faster?) Curious what everyone's thoughts are
Hi Everyone, new FZ6 owner here. Came from four (yes 4) years on a Ninja 250. I still love that bike, has a lot to offer other than power. I picked up a 2009 FZ6 with 4k miles on it in near mint condition. Love this bike as well and holy moly it has a lot of power.
One thing that is taking...
I did it! I got away with a lady rider friend for the weekend. We left Reno early Saturday morning (7:30am) and headed North into California.
We took Highway 70 to Quincy. We saw some smoke from a fire near there, but not bad.
Then we took highway 89 to Lake Almanor. It had a lot of...
I just recently acquired my FZ6 with 8k miles and plan on putting a lot more in time hopefully. I am curious to hear your guys mileage on your bikes. What would you say are a lot of miles for that motor?
Hi all, still did not get a chance to test drive, but I am happy that it fits. I'll post some picks later and a review on how it performs next week. Hopefully it will get rid of the turbulence and provide some calm winds. I do a lot of highway driving and it becomes very tiresome trying to keep...
Hello,
I know this topic has been discussed a lot of times however there are so many different answers that I think it is reasonable to make a new one to be sure.
I would like to convert my limited 2006 Yamaha Fz6 from 78hp to 98hp. I've seen a lot of posts saying that grind limiter on...
Park in a parking stall!
That's right, casino security approached me instructing me that I had to park my motorcycle in motorcycle parking. I'm all for it, but considering the casino lot was nearly empty on a
Sunday morning, and motorcycle parking was located at the very end of the parking...
Evening all
Did some bits to the bike today and to finish I decided to balance the throttle bodies
After doing it and having them all pretty close at idle the bike does seem smoother to ride and a lot of the vibration I had before has gone so seems to be running right but have a couple of...
I am a member on numerous motorcycle forums. I think forums are a great resource to get a barometer reading on the info you are seeking. I have owned about 45 different motorcycles and scooters . In my earlier years of motorcycling, I was a mileage junky. I used to ride a lot and loved long...
Hi guys,
This is my first post. I am trying my best to set my 2009 Fz6 up for sport touring. My first problem was the handlebar position. I have since modified that and am happy with it.
My next issue is the seat. As others have mentioned, within 1/2 hour I am soar. I have...
I may not be a cop, but I can sure ride like one. The local Sheriff's Motors Unit offered an advanced Motor's class to us civilians. One day, 8 hours, mostly riding around a bunch of cones. The same patterns and dimensions that the officers must get certified in order for them to ride...
My cousin is selling a 2005 FZ6 and I like it a lot. Unfortunately, after doing some research, it looks like they are prone to frame cracks. How common is this problem? Where should I be looking to see if the frame is cracked? I like the bike a lot but the thought of a cracked frame is pretty...
Hey everyone, happy spring!
So I have had the bike for a while and love how I fit on it. But now I got a new girl in my life who loves going for rides. I notice that for me to sit up decently straight I am pretty much humping the tank (leaving a lot of the seat behind me open). So when I have...
So to start with every time I ride I hover between 160 and 185 and I know my fan works when I get over 212. Now the problem is, normally I pull into work and the bike warms up to 190 heading across the parking lot, but once a week or so i turn it off and it jumps to 226 and the fan runs. It...
2016 Suzuki GSX-S1000 and GSX-S1000F first ride - Common Tread - RevZilla
What do you guys think?
$10,000, 145whp, 460 lbs, good components.
Seems to be a lot better sorted than the FZ09.
It's definitely going to be added to the contenders for my next bike.
It's about $2,800 cheaper...
O.k. I know this is an FZ6 forum but you guys are so damn smart and have helped me out a lot in the past I thought I would ask you first before I posted on your sister site. Besides I know a lot of you have also upgraded to the FZ1. As it states in the title I am going to sell my FZ6 and will...
Just traded my '06 FZ for a new Daytona 675. I was headed to the track more and more often, and I needed a sharper tool. Just wanted to say thanks to all here who's posts I have enjoyed over the last few years and have learned a heck of a lot from. Your guidance has been key. I'll be checking in...
