Is there any routine/preventive maintenance recommended on the engine for an fz6r? I probably have around 28k on my bike and to the best of my knowledge it probably hasn't had any sort of valve adjustments or anything like that. What's recommended for this bike for service of that type? I do oil...

I was looking at some power commanders for sale in my area on Craigslist and they are significantly lower than a new one. Are there multiple models that will work for the FZ6R? I see a lot for R6's, would one for an R6 also work for FZ6R?

Hello, I need to replace my rear shock with a new one. What are the steps to remove it and are there any critical things I need to do to stabilize the bike when the old one is off and before the new one goes on? I couldn't find any videos or other instructions on this, only on how to remove...

It's looking like my battery is on it's way out, was wondering if anyone recommended a specific replacement? Lead acid vs lithium ion? 09 fz6r Thanks.

I'm looking for a new shock, mine has a seal leak and even on it's highest/firmest setting it feels mushy. With a second rider my license plate hits the rear wheel on bumps. I know the options to rebuild it with Racetech, but I'm also interested in a clean switch with one. Please PM me if you...

Have chance to buy an R6 header from 2005 R6, is it any different from the 2003 headers that fit this bike?

Recently I've been seeing more companies do full exhaust replacements for the fz6r, the cheapest one I've seen is Delkevic They even claim you don't need a PC after installation, but they recommend a dyno test. It seems any major exhaust swap should have a PC and dyno test to make sure you're...

Is it possible to have a seal go bad on the rear shock? It seems like there's some oily substance on it that looks like maybe dried suspension oil..??

Does anyone have any experience with cutting off the catalytic converter/muffler (not sure it's exact name..), welding on additional exhaust tubing and then using a slip-on? Can do this please advise any hazards/pitfalls to lookout for.

Any recommendations on improving the rear suspension? I have Racetech gold fork emulators and springs in the front, and that improved the front suspension immensely, I'm looking to improve the back too but not finding much info on my options..?

I need to replace my clutch cable and figured it might be a good time to do some cool stainless steel cables. Any recommendations?

Hello, I have a 2009 FZ6R that I've put different handlebars on that sit lower but more forward than the stock bars. Everything was fine for a while, then all of a sudden (as the weather got colder) the clutch cable is sticking horribly to the point that I have to push it out to get it to...

Hello, I bought some Woodcraft clip ons for my fz6r. I put them on and immediately removed them as they don't look good with naked bikes. So, I'm selling them. I paid $179.99 for them (41mm plus 1.5 inch risers) and literally put them on and then removed them. I'm selling the entire kit, in...

I just replaced my fork seals myself and after two rides I'm still seeing oil covering the same fork that was leaking before. I did replace the seals on both forks, so if I damaged one accidentally it's odd that it was the same one as before. Is there a chance that something else could be...

Hello, I realized that I have a front fork leak, I'd like to do the repair and replace the front springs with better/stiffer ones and put in a thicker oil. I was wondering if anyone had done this already to get better/sportier performance out of the front suspension? Or, if anyone knows...
