This morning I went to my local Yamaha dealer to collect a new clutch cable for my FZ, I figured after 11 years it was probably due a new one.
Anyway, on their floor they had 4 blue R3s. What a stunning little bike! I immediately thought that this would be a great re-starter for my wife, and...

Hey all,
I'm having a hard time finding many aftermarket windscreens for the 2006 Fz6. It seems as if there isn't many options out there, compared to the 07+....so annoying.
Does anyone have any links? All I've been able to find is the Givi and the Yamaha Touring one. I'm looking for...
I recently graduated from college and I've been wanting a small project bike to work on for a while now, so I got myself a gift.
Meet my new to me 1982 Yamaha SR185 Exciter!
What a great find this was. Previous owner's father bought the bike new in 1982 and it's been in his family ever since...
After a few long days on the FZ, I now KNOW that I need a new saddle. I've looked for the Yamaha Comfort Seat for an '05, but so far no luck. Is the $400 Corbin my only option?
Somehow I managed to crack the rear wheel on my 2006 fz6. The rear wheel's part number is 5SL Yamaha Y-4. I have found a used rear wheel off of a 2005 fz6, part number 5SL Yamaha Y-2.
They look the same and have the same rear tire size. Will the 2005 rear wheel fit the 2006?
Guys, I really...

Guys, quick question about the front caliper,
can the 2009 R6 front caliper be direct replacement for 2007 Yamaha Fz6? I'm think to buy a spare front caliper to work on the seal to replace on my 2007 FZ6?
They are look-alike but I'm not sure just before hitting hte button!
thx,
jh
I'm trying to find a Yamaha fork and dust seal kit on Ebay and having no luck finding the Yamaha parts but what about All Balls kit? $25 shipped!
Anyone used this?
I'm also buying All Balls steering head bearings at the same time.
On another forum, someone brought up the new 300cc bikes available from the usual suspects and KTM. Given KTM's reliability issues and anorexic dealer network, they are completely out of consideration for me.
I also am not a fan of one cylinder road bikes, so that rules out Honda's offering...
Sold!!
Probably one of the last pieces off the bike I have left :).
Yamaha aftermarket comfort seat: $100 shipped to lower 48.
Its totally perfect on top, bottom edges (where it touches body or when you place it down) are simply wear/tear worn a bit.
Will post pics tonight.
I won't explain...
I never bothered to change to the new address, and kept using the FZ6-Forum.com site but now it leads to Yamaha Motorsports. I do like the silver and blue that they have incorporated into this year bikes.
