    What thought it was faster then you today

    So was curious to see if any one had some douch that thought you were racing them and ended up getting smoked by your fz6. At 2 am on my way to work had some Asian kid who thought his 2019 Ford Mustang 5L GT was going to beat me even tho all I was doing was speeding up to get over for my...

    Synch vacuum port size

    I was going to do a TB synch and before I get it torn down only to discover the hose to the gauge doesn't fit I thought I'd ask here. Is it 6mm, 5mm or something entirely different? Thx!

    Arching / Rattling sound when accelerating - sound like its coming from the stator

    I've noticed this sound since I got the bike - 09 with 4K miles, especially when leaning the bike to the right. Do not hear it when leaning the bike to the left (left handle bar towards the pavement). I'm not sure if it is getting louder or I'm just starting to notice it more. I installed the...

    My Convert FZ6 (Im not a pro painter be warned)

    Ok so I thought I would share my FZ6 build I did last year. I found this bike that had taken a fall and was in a bit of a state. I always wanted a naked FZ6 so I thought this was the perfect project. I had a go and I think it turn out alright :0

    Frame snapped

    Last night I noticed some major frame damage on my bike (my 2006 FZ6 for those that dont know). Snapped on both sides near the base of the tank. I had a situation recently with a yellow-cab blowing a stopsign that just took off without checking even to see if I was ok not that long ago (I was on...

    It has been awhile...

    It has been so long I can't even remeber the last post I did, probbably 3-4 years ago. Life (mainly my job) got in the way and free time spent on forums became scarce. A week ago I found an old FZ6-forum T-shirt, and I thought of everyone here. While I won't be as active as I once was, I...

    where do you keep registration/proof of insurance?

    I've been keeping my registration and proof of insurance in an internal pocket of my coat, but - sometimes I wear a different coat, so that's not a great solution. I thought about under the seat, but it's not exactly weather(water)-proof. Wondering what other people do. _Surely_ there are...

    Trip to Normandy

    Well me and 3 friends of mine got thinking and we all thought it would be great to plan a 4 day trip to Normandy (From North Holland). It will be 1 day ride to get there (with a break and/or a bit of minor road riding), 2days riding around the area and then the trip home (also with a stop off...

    Another FZ6

    I am back on a Fz6! This will be my 3rd FZ6 and I am pumped to be back on one. Call me crazy but I am coming off a 2005 Honda VFR that I put 30k miles on in two years. I for sure thought that the VFR would have been my last bike for a while, however I could not pass up the FZ6. It's a 2008 in...

    Cyl 1 & 4 = no spark

    Hi, my fz6sa 2006 won't fire on cylinder 1 & 4. I have tested both coils and all spark plugs on the wires going to the coil for cylinder 2 & 3 and they all work fine and creates a spark when held close to the frame, while holding down ignition button. My thought is that it is the ECU that is...
