Highbeam does not light up, but normal headlight works fine. Highbeam indicator on the dashboard turns on fine. How do I go about addressing this issue? Thanks.

Clutch lever too far out Similar to front break lever, is there a way to adjust the clutch lever so that it is closer to the bar end grip when fully disengaged? I have started doing some slow speed drills that require the clutch to be held in friction zone most of the practice duration, and...

I am looking for beginner instructions and part list on how to install a relay. Is there a parts list with what voltage relay to buy, what guage wire, posi tap connector, etc. and how to locate the tail light wire to draw the power from? Is there a youtube video to follow? I have heated grips...

I installed the oxford heated grips recently. The left grip gets a lot hotter than the right. How can I adjust it so that they both have even heat?

I did an oil change and it was my first time doing it. I had the bike on side stand, drained most of the old oil and changed the filter. But when I added 3 quarts (or 2.96 as per manual), after starting the bike for 3 minutes, the dipstick level without turning is only 40% wet of the textured...

I have the delkevic complete exhaust system with ds70 muffler. my bike is lowered. Now the exhaust comes in the way when using the rear paddle stand. Other than uninstalling the muffler each time, I was looking for suggestions for addressing this interference. thanks.

After I make a turn from a stop sign onto a highway going in the uphill direction, the shift lever refuses to tighten up and moves freely when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. The shift pedal moves freely, no matter how much I push it up and does not allow shifting to 3. I have to slightly press the...

I am a new rider and new to motorcycles. I need to install a USB charger to keep my phone charged as I use it for navigation. Can some post a link what parts are needed and how to install them. I have searched the past threads here but the parts links are broken. My local dealership quoted...

New rider here. I have watched many youtube videos on this topic but not all are consistent and none of them sufficiently clear. When downshifting say from 4 to 3 to slow down before entering a corner, do you operate the throttle and front break lever simultaneously, like index+middle fingers...

I really like everything about my fz6r except for the discomfort reaching for the handlebars. When I initially bought the bike, I had to almost immediately install the 35mm bikemaster handlebar risers which worked with stock cables. With this minor mod in place, I patiently experimented with...

Soon after the gas tank level hits F-Trip mode i.e. about 0.85 g in reserve, if I let the pump nozzle do the filling then it never dispenses more than 2.5gallons before auto shutoff kicks in. But the tank capacity being 4.57 gallon, how do you fill the last one gallon? Do you lift up the...

I could use a few suggestions on how to use the combination of engine braking, front brake, rear break, and clutch to slowdown before taking a turn? If you are on a 45 mph speed limit road in 3rd or higher gear, and need to take a right turn at the traffic light, how far ahead do you shift down...

Practice drills for sudden stops at high speed? New rider here and ride with ATGATT. This week, I got a reminder that accident is a real possibility, no matter how cautious I am. I was passing at 55mph through a T-intersection with a side road on my right, where traffic is usually backed up...

Most of the times it is a fairly smooth shift from neutral to 1st. But some times my bike refuses to shift out of neutral. But when I release the clutch a tiny bit, it does shift to 1st but with a forward jerk. What causes it to get stuck in neutral and how to avoid that forward jerk?

I am getting this universal top case from ebay and need a luggage rack to mount it on. The Givi and shad mounts appear to be priced very high. Where can I find a simple luggage rack mount for FZ6R? A few members seem to have made it themselves, I am not sure what's involved in making one...

On recently bought used 2013 fz6r, the custom mirrors make it impractical to see the vehicle behind me, even when I squeeze and turn my elbows inwards . The stem length of the custom mirrors seems too short; see attached picture. I am looking for mirror suggestions that have a stem length at...

I am beginner with no prior motorcycle experience. What would you recommend the shifting points be like from 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, etc... so as to keep up with normal automatic cars starting from a stop light?

I am a beginner rider and FZ6R is my first bike. I had the 1.75" lowering link and 1 inch up & back risers installed to comfortably reach the handlebar. I am 5'8" and my both feet touch the ground when I sit in the front half of the seat, with crotch almost near the gas tank, to gain more...

I am new driver, and bought a fz6r this month as my first bike. While driving, after a few shift ups and shift downs, I cant seem to remember what gear the bike is in. I would like to get a gear indicator but dont want to pay for the brand named products. I came across this $25 gear indicator...
