Fazer '07

[bikeyroo]

i cover my with exhaust wrap...

 

 

Where to buy this exhaust wrap? How muchie? Got better flush-fitting wrap anot so that it doesn't look like 'bandaged' up look?

[LollyPoP]

i think it's suppose to look like 'mummy'

[TinyBiker]

hopStick;3012676']I think there several brands of sideboxes that are available for FZ6. But one of the most exp and best are the H&B side boxes.

 

Think the 40L ones should be able to fit a helmet, or maybe a FF.

 

 

confirm e 40L can fit a FF, even a NOLAN flip up helmet + a raincoat in one side box

For those whose interested to find out bout FZ6 FC.

 

Heres my new update of my FC:

 

With 1280km on my odometer: Although i'm still breakin-in/run-in, I managed to get 19.6km/litre. 90% of the time im with pillion and i myself weigh close to 100kg ( fat ). Therefore with this additional weights, my FC tend to be at the slightly higher margin. Tyre pressure at 36psi(front) and 42psi(rear).

 

Managed to get 20-22km/litre doing touring, travelling speed constant at 110-120km/h. No pillion. Mainly highway.

 

Hope all this helps. Thank you and good morning everyone =D

gosh, that is good.

[LollyPoP]

wa... i dun think i ever got anything above 20km/l , think it's due to my heavy pick up.

[TinyBiker]

Any idea where to custom make reflective stickers for panniers besides ubi?

 

Any recomanded shops?

Singapore lah.

Well, lollypop is quite rite, the shop at holiday plaze does gorgeous panniers stickers and the finishing is commendable. Another alternative would be the shop beside HKL at alexandra industrial park. his price is quite EX i would say but does a good job. but if ur panniers are hepco, then leave it, coz it's rough surface.

Thanks,

i would check out the shop at alexander area since its near my hse.

My panniers are indeed H&B wif the black rough surface, hence more reason to make the reflective stickers. (safety purpose espcially travelling along NSH at night)

 

Anyway thanks for the info..

During heavy braking, i noticed there is a "ticking" sound coming from the front. Sounds like steering cone lose or something. I went HL and was told is pretty normal and FZ6 07 has this problem.

 

Do you guys faced this problem too? Heavy brake, weird ticking sound can be heard.

Normal steering cone needs to be tighten a little bit

Hmm.. thanks for ur advise. Will check it out..

 

Anyway, when changing to a aftermarket exhaust, does u guys taking the weight of the exhaust into consideration? As in the more heavy of the exhaust = slow pickup, cos it weight the bike down. I check with the motorworld regarding their Yoshi exhaust for FZ6. It seem to me that its kind of heavy..

[LollyPoP]

u should see how heavy e stock pipes are...

i carry them in my back-pack from AMK all e way to wdls.

i'm facing this problem too. went HL to check, the mechanic says its because of the motovation sliders fitted on my front wheel axles and according to him, some new fz6 '07 owners who fitted them have the same problem too.
