    Zx6r mirrors with stock handlebars

    If you rely on your mirrors, you could always get bar end mirrors. I’ve seen a couple FZ6Rs on here with them and they don’t look too bad

    Zx6r mirrors with stock handlebars

    I’ve got the same mirrors and I’ve got the same problem. My arm takes up like half the mirror so I can’t see anything directly behind me. I’ve tended to stop using them most of the time at this point, I usually just do a head check. The only time I use them now are when I’m stopped, I’ll take a...

    How much does the airbox mod effect A/F?

    I’m not sure about the PCV map part of this question, but as far as I know trimming the chimney down helps use more of the filter than anything. I’ve read on here that the velocity stacks do work. If all you want is shorter ones then you could trim them. Otherwise go on revzilla.com (or any...

    Timing gear

    Hey guys, I’m looking into doing both the airbox mod and and timing advance. I was wondering if there somewhere that sells the advanced gear or if the only option is to file it down yourself. Thanks for the help

    Exhaust and fairing question

    Unfortunately with the FZ6R you can’t just bolt a slip on and call it a day. The whole exhaust system is one piece. The cheapest thing you could do is open the cat and pull everything out and reweld it shut. Either that or cutting the cat off and putting a new pipe on which would then fit a slip on

    help remove tank black side panels

    Pretty sure they’re glued on. Heat gun/hairdryer and a rubber scraper?

    Fz6r rear cowl seat

    Otherwise I’ve seen people use the seat as a mold and making a cowl out of fiberglass. 3D printing might be a better way of doing it though.

    Fz6r rear cowl seat

    If you do find one it’ll be expensive. Might be cheaper and faster to make one

    PCV?

    Those of you that have a PCV installed... is it worth it? I’m trying to decide if adding a power commander would really change the bike at all and if it’d be worth the money.

    2009 FZ6R Street Fighter Conversion

    So do these fairings bolt right up or do you need extra brackets to mount them?

    Chain length?

    just street riding at the moment and don’t plan on stunting anytime soon. I’m currently running -1 in the front and like it but would love more low end torque. Not so worried about top speed

    PCV Maps

    Personally I’ve just got the block off plates. There’s still popping on decel but it’s just one or two loud pops and that all. Yeah running lean would slightly increase gas mileage. However the FZ6R already runs slightly lean and I doubt putting a new exhaust on makes it run that lean. One a...

    PCV Maps

    1. Either of the PC’s will work but if you have the money I would suggest getting the PCV 2. I’m almost certain that Marthy’s maps all require the PCV 3. I personally don’t have the maps, but if you email Marthy he’ll send you them if you don’t put in the block off plates then you’ll always...

    Transmission issue

    Thanks for the reply, I brought it to a friend that works at a bike shop and he said that it’s normal. Bikes have a non synchronous transmission so the forks to engage the transmission don't rotate while the gears are always rotating. He said that using a synthetic oil is too slippery and makes...

    Transmission issue

    Every once in a while, while I’m sitting at a stop, I can’t shift from neutral to first. The lever just bounces back and stays in neutral. Has anyone else has this problem? I also noticed that it always does the same thing when the bike is off. I only seem to have the issue when sitting in...
