Hey guys, so my chain broke while I was riding. I have an 09 fz6r, and when I started taking it apart to replace the chain and sprocket, I noticed there was more damage to the bike then I was hoping. I'm not sure exactly what it is that's broken, so I was hoping someone can tell me what it's...
I am about to replace my second Dowco Weatherall Plus cover because the weatherproofing tape failed. Not sure if they will replace the second one under the lifetime warranty, but even if they offer, I want to see what the FZ6 community at large uses as an outdoor cover. I have heard good...
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...
G'day fz6 lovers,
Has anyone had to replace the bushings of the two screws that hold the shift pedal assembly? I'm getting lots of sideways movement which I think is causing slip on the teeth of the gearshaft.
I'm in Australia, looking to replace these.
Does anyone know the part no# &/or...
Hey guys,
My FZ6 was clearly left outside for alot of its life, and the plastic screen over the actual screen on the gauge. Has anyone found a way to replace it without having to replace the entire unit?
Hi gents
Posting here for the first time because my 2007 FZ6-S2 started showing error code 33 and it has been tricky to resolve.
Symptoms / Causes:
I'm still able to start my bike and ride. However only able to ride distances below 12 - 14km. If I ride any distance beyond 12 to 14km, bike...
I Sheard of my windshield bolts, 2009 ZF6 - how do I get to the inside grommets to replace. My bike feel onto a shelf and the windshield came flying off and the bolts are sheared off. How do I remove and replace those bolts?
I changed the coolant recently, and it was working fine. My bike was getting hot after some easy rides, requiring the fan to turn on for about 3-4 minutes at the end of a ride (abnormal behavior even after the coolant change). I checked the rez and there was a crack in the plastic at the high...
I installed a set of R6s forks today, and WOW! What a difference!
Let me say that again with emphasis.
WOW!!! Why the bell didn't I do this sooner?
A few weeks ago my neighbor, who takes his Honda ST1100 through the twisties like a sport bike, swapped bikes with me for a bit. His...
My throttle cables got crushed and now the throttle has a hard time returning to the "off" position. It looks like one of the cable housings is also cracked, exposing the interior. Instead of cheaping out and somehow trying to fix it I decided to just replace them.
1. Should I do both cables...
Hi Everyone
While riding to work the other day the clutch lever got stuck when i pulled it in to change gears, i managed to nurse it home.
I originally thought this was due to lack of cable lube, so today i went to lube it and discovered that the cable had actually sawed its way through...
I had posted in another thread that I went down. Now I need to get her all healed up. When I went down it was on the right side and the frame slider took most of the abuse. Three things though need attention:
1) I leaked out some coolant and now she is running hot. Am I ok to just replace...
So after having some troubles getting going this season and after the bike sitting for a couple of months in the snow its time to get her back to riding order. I have been plagued by first a flat rear tire and now a flat front (think someone might be f'n with me) I have a more pressing concern...
First of all, I would like to thank all you riders here . This community is great place to be around with for helping and being helped/supported!
Here's what I found below the waterpump. For the history, dropped the bikes around 3-4 times, mostly (LOL) in the drive ways because of losing...
Anyone have plans to go to the show? I will be there on Friday (I deserve a day off).
Need to replace helmet and gloves and generally do my Christmas shopping, for MY gifts [emoji1]
Its a 2006 with 19k on it, purchased with 12k this April- runs perfectly. I'm thinking:
-Plugs (NGK (3521) CR9EIX Iridium)
-Air filter (I believe it has a K&N but I'd like to go stock)
-Brake fluid flush, replace caliper seals
-SS brake hoses
-Coolant flush
-Buy the tool for TB sync and...
The FZ is 49 miles shy of 33k miles. Almost every week this summer, I have taken her out to the mountains for a near 200 mile round trip which naturally is mostly filled with curves, corners, and twisties. After my last trip this week I have increasingly becoming annoyed with the amount front...
