Hi guys I need some advice on the clutch cable. I have a fz-1 N 2006- on model. I have changed the risers and the metal bend in the cable near the clutch lever gets in the way. Do any of you know of another clutch cable from another bike that fits and does not have that metal bend on it...

I had a perfect running gen 11 2006 bike until the throttle cable broke last week. Being a competent technician of many years, I thought nothing more of replacing the cable, obviously no! Since fitting the cables I now have a misfire/ rough running issue between 2000-3000 rpm, bike runs and...

OK the frustration has hit the ceiling. My choke lever moves the choke cable near the carbs but the choke does not seem to engage upon starting.

Short crappy demo video Editedt Cruise2 - YouTube I take no responsibility if you chose to do this. This is not “a how to” but how I did. Rostra will not offer assistance to mount these to motorcycles. That said many people have successfully done this on many different models and brands of...

Two jobs and a bun in the oven have taken my time and will be taking my money shortly. Therefore, I'm putting my 06 silver FZ1 up for sale. Never wrecked, always covered at night. Clean and clear title. It has 24K miles on it. I just replaced the stator, rotor, oil strainer, oil pan gasket...

Bike FZ1N 2009 I need help and advice. I changed my clutch plates as it seemed like a easy job. After installing the plates and the cover, i found my clutch cable was too loose. Initially i though it was a cable adjustment issue, but it seems like there is not enough strength on the pull...
