Mason Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 they are virtualy the same engine. On paper the FZ6 has one more cc than the R6. But the R6 has a different compression ratio, and different drive train. I think your best bet to start off with is go with a K&N air filter. It's quick, cheap, and you can do it youself. I think including the upper air box cover i losened 1 bolt and removed 8 bolts/screws. make sure that your tank with either empty or close to it. i just did that to my 07 FZ6 and i have no backfires or anything. Next on your list should be exhaust. Granted I havent dont that just yet but i have had 3 bikes in the past and i havent had any problems with just bolting it on. worst case you have to get a plug and play power comander. that should boost your horsepower and torque. however if you want to get down to the nitty gritty, I'd upgrade plugs and wires, change out sprockets and possibly have the head bored out. but as far as exhaust and air filter and things of that nature, i'm just telling you stuff that you can do pretty much by yourself. good luck and keep it shiny side up. > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mason Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Oh and another thing DON"T EVER TRY TO GET MATCHING GEAR!!!! You'll just wind up lookin like a Goober. When in doubt go with black gear. That's what I did and it works. Same goes with anybody with anybike. So if you've got a yellow bike, Don't get a red helmet or a red jacket. You look retarted. IF YOU HAVE A BIKE AND YOU GEAR IS A COMPLETLY DIFFERENT COLOR PLEASE SAY THE FOLLOWING: I Am Sofa King Red Tar Ted Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
