Hey guys, so I used to be very active on the old site when I first got my Fz6r. I headed up some group buys, got bike of the month, and really enjoyed my time with everyone. Then.... Kids happened. I still rode quite often but it eventually became less and less. So I just sold my bike sadly...
Yep mine leaks out of the fill plug. It's beyond hand tight too. And still dribbles out a little. Dealer was closed when I stopped by but I'll check back and let you know what they say.
Mine didn't leak at all last summer which is weird. I'm heading to a local shop and yamaha dealer tomorrow so I'll chat with them and see if they can help out.
So I have the proper amount of oil in my bike but it tends to drip out some here and there around the oil cap? Is there supposed to be an o-ring around the oil cap? If so does anyone have a part number or anything?

I just got the smx-2's haven't ridden too much with them yet but so far really like them. They are easy on off and definitely feel quite protective. They are starting to break in a little and be a little more comfortable.
You'll need nuts for the bolts that come one the bike. Our tail had them integrated into it. My ebay fender eliminator didn't have nuts with it so I had to get 4. I don't remember the size though.
Put on some r6s mirrors, eagle eyes in amber set up as running and turn signals in the fake air duct, rotated bar mount for forward mounting and rolled bars back, new spyder peak grips, and sintered front pads... Phew long afternoon!
I used these. http://pages.ebay.com/motors/link/?nav=item.view&id=360678765760 simple plug and play. All you gotta do is snip the wiring harness off your stock signals and attach them to your new rear signals the plug everything in and stash the wires under the rear seat.
There are quite a few threads and many differing opinions on lowering the front end. Most say if you lower the front you should lower the back too. And some say to only lower minimally like less than half an inch. Others have gone 2 1/2" and say it's just fine. I personally only lowered the...
