Great forum here. Been poking around here and there. Love the How To stuff. I have a 2006 FZ6 with 28K miles on it. Bought it used. I know kinda a lot of miles but it was a clean bike with no issues. I have a question about shifting/driving in 1st gear. Sometimes when I drive though the parking lot or at a slow speed the throttle seems to be kinda jumpy. As in the bike speeds up then slows then speeds. This mainly happens when the wife is on the back. It is only an issue when going slow. Say around 10 MPH or less. Does anyone else experience this? I wanted to put something in the gas tank to clean the injectors, any recommendations?
Shifting. . . my previous bike was a 2010 GSXR 750. I am noticing that my shifting is off. At least it seems. I was looking at the owners manual and found the shifting guide there. Do most of you go by that more or less? I have been shifting into 2nd around 20-25MPH, after reading I am adjusting it down to around 13MPH. I cruse around town in 3rd or 4th gear speeds around 40-50MPH. 3rd gear 40MPH 4th gear 50MPH. Thoughts on this?
Such a great community, happy to be here!
