    Clunking Noise While Starting Out in 1st Gear?

    Hey all, I've noticed a funny noise recently when I'm just starting out in first gear on my bike. The sound is a sort of 'clunk' a little bit like the noise it makes when you're sitting in neutral and shift down to first. It happens as I'm just starting out in first gear, getting off the...

    Shifting from 1st to 2nd at high rpms

    My FZ6R shifts through gears pretty smoothly. But, when I'm trying to come quick off the line and rev up the rpm's (like racing) above 8,000 in first gear it pops into neutral instead of into second gear when shifting up... I'm just sitting there in neutral winding out rpms. Embarrassing. I...
