If you're mechanically minded -don't waste your $$$ But then if you were you wouldn't be asking, The vast majority of extended warranties are cream to stealerships pie. If it is going to help you sleep at night, get the warranty But for most Yamaha's, they will clock themselves before...

The breadbox muffler isnt SS and dont rely on the sound quality of vids on youtube. At the the end of day get yourself a short section of 50mm pipe, cut the stock breadbox off and weld the pipe section on. If you cant do it yourself, look for a local exhaust shop that will do it for you. Once...

If you think the FZ6R has narrow bars, you won't like anything with clipons

Search Gumtree and check bike wreckers around the country, they pop up every now and then

Great stuff Malicioso!!! Let's see some photos of your new ride. Congrats too

When you start your bike, the air/ fuel ratio is distorted compared to warm running due to the auto choke; hence the 'lumpy' note. If your system is a straight through exhaust mid system, you will be able to see a flame, especially after revving the motor and closing the throttle off -to see...

Early on when I first got my XJ6S I had a noticeable rattle, sometimes a hum coming from dash area. Read somewhere on here about something similar. Simple fix was to remove the windscreen & run a small bead of silicon under the tips of the windscreen, around the jewel light, where it is...

I rolled up to the tyre guys I use near town this morning, bright & early to beat the heat here today (41c). Couple others had same idea too, we all waited for the shop to open. I intended to have a used tyre swapped onto my front, I brought my spare with me. So anyway install gets done I pay...

one would assume success just in that aspect :cool: TIP to getting anything out of behind the dash, even with the fairings completely removed -use a long screw driver -magnetised bit is preferable *magnetised screwdriver -DONT buy a magnetised screw driver, just run a magnet over your...

This is what I would do! Spend the insurance $ on upgrade/ mods or gear & live with those little dings

Practice your throttle control & counter steering skills. Greater throttle inputs helps stand the bike up. Counter steering tips it over. The FZ6R/ XJ6 is sizeable for the displacement but still flick-able

Sorry to hear you hurt your baby, at least a spit'n'polish will clean her up, don't worry after 50k miles those little knocks will be unrecognisable

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four young Mothers and their small children. You all have obsessions,' he observed. To the first mother, Mary, he said, 'You are obsessed with eating. You've even named your daughter Candy.' He turned to the second Mum, Ann...

2nd this! If the motor is starved for air, and you open the throttle it will stall. Others (North Americans) have posted threads with similar symptoms in past following their winter storage. Lift the tank and open the air box for a look, while you are there clean the air filter and shuffle...

Congrats on the ride, at least you shouldn't go blind fondling her:p

Great to hear your ok following that, you did well prior to that unfolding by dropping back, that in itself can be considered defensive riding

Yep stinking hot on the 3rd, but I was away camping at the beach drinking...so I was as comfortable as a pig in... Unfortunately back home alot folks were having bushfire issues. Thankfully no-one was seriously injured but around 30 homes were lost

If you like the looks of the exhaust, go for it. Sound wise, there is little difference between slipon's, the biggest difference to be made to the overall sound comes from how it is tuned or mapped. Otherwise the other ways to affect the notes of your exhaust include -header pipe lengths/ bends...
