Hi Guys, looking at getting some soft luggage for my 09 FZ6 S2, I'm not looking for massive storage space, but whats the best fit for the panniers bearing in mind the exhaust's location, I'm also looking at a magnetic tank bag, what fits ?
Cheers

It does seem that Givi is the only company that makes racks these days? on my old Fazer thou I had a Rennetec rack which nice and handy, quite small but it looked good and was made of steel, is everything made by GIVI made from plastic ?

Used to have a gen 1 1000, did the R6 shock mod, had to fix a drill out the poxy EXUP valve, never did get to the bottom of the thing vibrating like a bitch (the reason I sold it) even after balancing the carbs and re-welding the exhaust bracket back up.
I've since had a Speed triple and now I'm currently on an S2 FZ6 which is a nice bike if a little lacking in the power dept, I plan to keep the FS6 as a daily driver but I'd like to get something that I could play on so to speak, been thinking about a FZ1N but what goes wrong with them ? have they still got the EXUP valve and if so is it an issue like the old gen 1 ? and more to the point does it vibrate ?
Thanks guys

I used to run a gen 1 thou, sold it because it was too fast and it vibrated like a bitch, bought a 2008 FZ6 S2, yes not as fast but thats just what I need.......must admit my header bolts are turning to shit with rust too, I plan to sort it out in the winter when it's off the road, worst case scenario is the header bolts snap off and its an engine strip to get the head off and off to an engineer to drill out......fuckin yams !!!

Just downsized to an 09 FZ6 S2, always had big 1000cc bikes (inc a gen1 fazer thou) but recently I've been feeling the need to slow things down a bit so bought the FZ, what a great little bike, ticks all the box's for me, I've been riding for 37 years and in my experience the bike is great for a new rider and experienced rider alike, not too tall either, I'm 5'11 and I can get both feet on the ground

The lock for the FZ6 seat is right above the rear wheel, crap off the wheel can cause the lock to seize up, when I had my one I greased up the cable and made up a cover using a bean tin to deflect the crap off the lock mechanism. Does your key turn in the lock as it my be the previous owner never used it and its corroded up, might be worth a squirt of something to try free the lock off.
Spot on brother, shit off the rear wheel had seized the mech up, managed to get the seat off by moving the sliding latch over with a screwdriver fromm the the underside of the rear tray, onec the seat was off then behold all the road crap all over the tool kit and everything, bit of a piss poor idea on Yamaha's part. All greased up and I'll be looking at making some sort of a cover etc, cheers bud

Hi Guys just bought a FZ6 S2 and I was wondering if the ignition key is meant to fit the seat lock ? My ignition key will not open the seat up at all
