Sounds like the issue is the fan not kicking on. You should be able to power the fan directly to test that, if you have a DVM (digital volt meter) you can test the fan relay, (I assume you have previously checked the fuse for the fan, and made certain it is good), and check all connections. That...

LOL, I put one on my son's MT-07. :) No, still running stock with heated grip (which adds more tension).

Before you change the fan, wire it to your battery and see if it runs or not. You may want to look at the coolant temperature sensor that powers the fan on, and the relay is by the passenger grab bar, right hand side sitting on the bike first. They may be cheaper than the fan. If the fan runs...

Thanks for the clear explanation, and the helpful video. I may see if I can order an 'extra' spring and give it a shot. If it works out, I will keep the modified version, if not, I can go back to the original spring. :) It looks pretty straight forward to modify the spring, and install it. :)

Okay, thanks. I think I understand what you did. :)

Wondering if you can have it 'pulled out', the hole to pull it out sealed, brazed / welded, to reuse it. (obviously, pull the pump and make certain no vapor left in the tank first. :) There don't seem to be many 'great' fuel tanks for the 6R, been watching ebay, and every once in a while a...

Trying to follow your mod. It looks like you bent the hook around about 90 degrees, clockwise from the upper to lower picture. Was that the 'only' thing you ended up modifying? It looks like the bracket where the throttle cables are mounted is in the vice, does that 'remove' from the injector...

Consider replacing brake lines, upgrading with braided steel, and check your masters / slaves for wear / rubber rot. Definitely replace the patched tire, and it makes sense to get a set, the tires may be past their safe life time by now... Oil, filter, check air filter to make sure the mice have...

Also give the pads some time so seat. you may have had some air leak in when moving the lines around, so bleeding makes sense, or tie down your foot brake, and then check the rear master.. sometimes that helps

So is he going to restore it, dump it, or part it out?

Make certain the switch is activated by the spring when you press the brake. Do a continuity check on the switch, make certain it functions. trace the connections back through the wire harness. This assumes the light is activated by the front brake. If that is the case, chances are the problem...

Two currently on Ebay (with tires), one still has rotors on it. $200 (U.S) or less, but no clue how tariff B.S. will reflect in pricing... Otherwise, check motorcycle scrap yards... or someone on the forum may have a spare for sale. Good luck! Front Wheel 1 Front Wheel 2

Just noticed this Actual FZ6R Rear Seat Cowl (Blue) on Ebay Blue Seat Cowl on Ebay . I imagine you could paint it your bike color, if you don't like blue, but these seem to be as rare as hens' teeth, so here is your heads up.

When you have put some miles on it, please comment on how you 'like (or not)' the gearing change Beautiful ride. :)

There should be two outlets on your fuel tank. A breather hose and a drain hose. Breather hose (right side) goes to rollover valve, to canister on the 'California models'. Drain hose is open to atmosphere. Both, in tank seem to run up to the fuel cap. You might want to check the plumbing inside...

Are those 'aftermarket' clip-ons. or some sort of stock to SV650s? Seem to be various incarnations of the clip-ons, different dimensions as well.

Looks great! Cool 'Spare gasoline bottle'. :)

There currently is one for sale on E-bay, for auction $80 with no bids... Ends in a day or two.

22 is "Open or short circuit of intake air temperature sensor lead." There's a good list of possible causes of this. If it doesn't come back, then it was a fluke in air temperature sensing at startup. Perhaps the bike was in a cool garage and didn't like the sudden swing in air temperature...

Sorry you were injured, and your bike damaged. At least you are still around to tell the tale. Stay safe, and good luck getting your ride back together.
