It's taken me a bit longer than planned to get these put on, but I'm making headway.
The shifter side is completely done and I started on the brake side, but I've hit a roadblock.
Keep in mind, I bought mine used, so I'm crossing my fingers that I'm not missing any parts, but I haven't...
Valter Moto Type 1.5 Adjustable Rearsets for Yamaha FZ6R (XJ6), PJ's Parts
Has anybody ever used these before?
I do more track-day riding than street riding lately and have started to drag foot pegs, which makes for a very uneasy feeling.
I'm trying to get one more season out of my FZ6R...
Thanks for the input. :thumbup:
Also, what year model ZX6R mirrors do you have on your bike? Are they OEM or aftermarket? The rabbit ears are getting to be a bit much for me lately...
Yes, I'm bringing this back. :thumbup:
Long story short, I'm in the market for some clip-ons. Obviously the easier/less expensive route would be to go with the Woodcraft clip-ons, but I'm a bit hesitant after reading through this thread and even having a few people say it's somewhat shaky...
Thanks for all the replies, guys!
I should have clarified...the bike had the initial break-in maintenance done at the Yamaha dealership 6 months back (1200 miles ago, I have ~1800 miles total).
I got home yesterday and decided to take it out for a spin to see if it acted up more in...
Hey guys,
I bought my '12 FZ6R last May (2013) and recently 1st-N-2nd have been giving me issues.
I've been cruising along and have had the transmission jump from 2nd and 1st back to Neutral, while other times I've had to be pretty forceful with getting the bike to move from gear to gear...
I ran into a similar problem with my '12 FZ6R, however it occured during the break-in period, so when I brought it to the dealership for the break-in maintenance I mentioned my issue...they adjusted the clutch and voila, no more problems since then.
Awesome write-up, but I've got an issue with my 2012. I wired the front blinkers for "normal" speed, and they work fine...but my rear signalss are blinking at a much faster rate, almost like a bulb is out on one of the front signals.
Has anybody else experienced this before?
I've filled up 3 times with my 2012 FZ6R (almost 600 miles on it) and have gotten 46.1mpg, 53mpg, & 49.5mpg...while the owner's manual doesn't say that it's a necessity to run Super Unleaded, I go ahead and run it anyways.
The "Gas Cubby" app for smart phones is what I use...definitely comes...
If I'm riding with a group, I don't listen to anything but the bikes.
But, if it's just me, I have to...while my Bell Star Carbon helmet is ridiculously comfortable, wind noise is a bit much.
The abandoned track is actually in Oklahoma...I rode up for the day and ended up near Lake Texoma. Next thing ya know, I looked over and saw a nice place for a photo op haha.
The Dallas area has been good to me, but I'm originally from the Beaumont area (75 miles east of Houston), so...
