I've had mine for 23-years now and the only fault I've ever dealt with is the rectifier. Since fitting the VFRness it's not been a problem since....
Congrats and welcome to the club. It's ridiculous for these bikes to be so cheap when they are so awesome even 20-years on!
I did a clutch slave cylinder change about 18 months ago and sure enough, spent 45 minutes bleeding the system without getting a stiff feel (stop...
Correct, it's been worth very little for the past 15 years and doesn't depreciate at all!
Really appreciate that pal. I didn't expect anything and am pretty much resigned to buying another new battery. I've tested a few batteries with...
Bought my '99 model new as my first big bike. Still got it and still love it. First time winding it up put a massive smile on my face but I...
I did. I measured 11.98V at the headlamp connector. I should also have mentioned that I have a VFRness and rectifier from Ricks. It's been on...
Extreme thread resurrection here but I had this blowing headlight problem today and my experience might help someone else. After putting a new...
I don't agree with that, sorry. Change your brake fluid yearly if you want but it will work for much longer than that. You'll know by the feel of...
My tuppence worth, if the reservoir is empty then there is a good chance that a leak has developed somewhere. Rather than just pouring new fluid...
Great thread. I started reading and thought it would be a simple one just brushing over the easy stuff but you've really got stuck in to it....
I popped out to view a 2006 FZ6 tonight. Nice looking bike in the photos, low miles, good price so I went to see it after work. After a load...
Hi Gang I'm feeling particularly pleased with myself that I've learnt a new word - wellnuts. I had no idea what to call the rubber fairing...
Stuck the turn signal relay back in tonight and fuse didn't blow! So I can only guess that pulling connectors off and back on again has some how...
Cheers fellas. I did notice one of the spade connectors on the front brake switch was bent when I pulled them off for testing. I'll check again...
Hi Gang It's been a while since I was last here so I just wanted to share an experience I've had today when I lost indicators, horn and brake...
I don't generally ride with my hands off the bars but how else are you going to tell how bad the wobble is and in turn get it sorted? Mine is '99...
When I first did a max speed test I was in France and it was late evening on one of their motorways - I got it up to 160mph and that was about all...
Some great opinions/advice there, thanks. I think I will buy the Ninja and see how I get on with before selling the VFR. The bike I have my eye...
Hi Gang I don't come on here that often, mostly because my 5th Gen. is reliable and I rarely have anything to ask or offer. However, after...
