Hey all,
I have made the move to a more practical bike for commuting a 2007 Yamaha FZ6.
Overall I am very satisfied with this bike. The power is there and its comfortable however I have one issue with this bike.
Shifting from 1st to 2nd seems to be problematic. Sometimes it shifts nicely and other times I get some vibrations in the shifter and the sound of grinding Mostly from 3-6k rpm.
If I match the RPM or granny shift ( Pull the clutch wait for 2 sec then shift ) its fine
I have made sure the chain slack and clutch slack is to spec and the bike only has 13k KM on it.
Through some research it seems to be a common issue or just the trait of this bike.
Wanted to get the forums opinion on it to see what people think.
Thanks all.
