    Fz6r losing power?! plz help

    When you open the gas cap, the metal extends out into the take forming a bucket shape with a hole at the bottom.... Also when you open the gas cap, look on the outside and there's a little hole with an orange washer around it...if you overfill gas splashes into it causing problems.
