Clutch in Bike Dies

Any warranty left? I'd take it in.... But I don't know your problem. Maybe too low idle? *shrug*

Yeah the goal is to get all four lines lined up. Some also do this at like 4,000 or 8,000 rpm and set them at this too. The cost of a Morgan Carbtune is about $100 and I'm looking into getting one. It basically pays for itself after one syncing as your dealer charges around $85 for...

Less jittery if you will...

You'll see it pretty clearly if you squat slightly and look in there. Just put a phillips head in there and turn it to adjust the idle. I'd tell you which way increases it but can't remember right now. Thanks, it is a little late right now to work on it but i will tomorrow. Do...

Your turn signal relay is missing. It should be plugged into that.

I have an 2007 model and the above mentioned screw is there and it DOES NOT HAVE A LOCK NUT. There is a spring underneath it to prevent it from backing in/out on its own. If yours has a locknut, your on the wrong screw. It is adjustable with a medium tip, fairly long phillips head screwdriver. The outside (as I recall) of the adjuster screw is almost star shaped with many points (not a round head). Its set in from the frame about...

I rode to work today. Lovely, nice weather. I finished at 5 and walked up to my bike. Someone had left a nut on my seat. Hmmm that's funny thinks I. I didn't recognise it, looked the bike over - nothing missing. Put the nut in my pocket just in case. I set off. Did 120mph down the A34. Hit the back road. I'm doing 70 along a lovely stretch of road when I got NO drive. Engine fine ...

I removed the headlight fairing, I started the bike, checked the headlights and all was working fine. I connected the left flasher for testing and started the bike, but the bike would not start. When I turn the ignition/key on, the display comes on, the tail light comes on but the headlight does not turn on (if my memory serves right, I think the running light comes on as soon as you turn the ...

I'm a smaller rider (160lbs) so I have set my preload to 2, I was just curious is there any disadvantages for a lighter rider to set the preload to a higher number?

Anybody know a possible cause of turn signals and hazards not working? I've checked the fuses and they are fine. Any advice or things I can check?

Iteresting problem started last week. While riding up to a light preparing to slow down pull in clutch and release throttle to downshift and before i can release the clutch to engage the gear the bike's rpms have droped to nothing and shut off which is very unpleasent in traffic. Also sitting in garage in neutral ran rpms up to about six thousand and released, rpms dropped to nothing and shut ...

I am undersprung, and I would like to replace my stock fork oil with a heavier weight. I was wondering what the stock fork oil comes with. And how many quarts will it take to replace the oil? I'm going to try to just replace it with heavier weight oil rather than getting new springs. I weigh about 160 lbs with gear and I don't think new springs will make that much of a difference.

I have a 2004 FZ6. Recently I installed some new parts following an accident, new tank, fairing, handlebars, so the front end electrics were removed and reinstalled. I also have a new left engine cover but when I removed the old one and saw that I needed a Torx driver to remove the coil I just put it back. This was on Saturday. I rode it for about 10km on Sunday and it started fine ...

When i bought my bike last weekend i asked the salesman what do they get for their 600 mile service. When he told me around 300 with tax my eyes popped out of my sockets. I did hardly ANY maintenance save for the oil, shaft oil and tires on my vulcan and at 17k miles its been bulletproof. I didnt go to the dealer for the 600 mile service so whats the point with the FZ? I would LIKE to do it ...

My odometer and rpm gage just quit working. But my neutral light and bright light indicator still works. The back light even works. I checked fuses, but no luck there. I will welcome any feedback.
