hi all hope you are all well and keeping safeanyone got a boxeye rear wheel with a decent disc on it
thanks guys

Hi, I bought my fzs600 2003 a few months ago with 13,800 miles on the clock, it was running poorly at low speed so I stripped and cleaned the carbs , and it then ran much better. Lately I’ve started having trouble starting from cold , it doesn’t fire straight away on no3 cylinder ( cold exhaust header ), after about 30 seconds of rough running no3 warms up and idles perfectly, and rides perfectly. Has anyone had this sort of fault , I’m tempted to blame the carb idle circuit, but shouldn’t it run poorly  when warmed up too.
Any ideas great fully received.


Cheers Wiz

    Just curious about the header downpipes, I know the exhaust flanges and collars are mild steel but what kind of material are the downpipes?  They are often quoted as "stainless steel", but as I am involved in engineering where we use a lot of stainless material, this stuff seems to be as poor as it can possibly get,  Piss poor in fact!  P.S. Anyone know what the pipe wall thickness of these are?

Hope everyone is doing fine. I found this interesting over the weekend to pass some time and take my thoughts off the grim present situation:

P.S: I do believe the test is flawed, because, instead of the results, it keeps showing my shoe size. Could be my browser, or something.

Hi guys!
So, my bike are as follows now.
AIS delete, full system, opened airbox but not the Lars way. When cold it revs nice on idle but warm idle goes south and it hunts so i reckon the map is way rich on idle.
Feels great otherwise, although fuel economy is....well high-ish


You who run from the US map pack, what have you found works the best?
I can add that i can import a PC3 map but when trying to save it as a PCV file program crasches so that not an option. I run stage4 PCV map....not the smoothed one.
And this is already at minus on idle.


Last qs, can one eff up the idle this way on the idle screw? i turned mine but nothing happened. Was thinking that i was on autochoke therefor no difference but when warm its effed....


Any input appreciated!


Regards
Mattias

As above, it looks like riding is gonna be out of the question for some months yet, makes a window of opportunity for some bike work time. Been looking at the Andreani kit for a while as an improvement, along with a fully adjustable rear shock by a n other. Anyone done this on an FZ6 S2 fazer. Ive only been able to find a couple of reviews, and I doont want to have to alter the exisitng forks to make it fit. If I can possibly make the bike the best it can be, Ill keep it, cos I like it. Its that or a Street Triple when the virus dust settles

Hi I’ve got a 2010 S2 in blue but the frame is silver, everything I’ve read about the FZ6 says the frame was black from 2007 when the S2 was launched.


Anyone else got a S2 with silver frame ?

Hello,


Still trying to get the right bits to route my speedo cable properly but cannot find a part number or where to get 'S' from the attached drawing. Is this an OEM clamp on all fzs600's? Do other owners have this on their bike?


Thanks again for help.
