Great Vid mate 👍🏽 Just subbed up! best of luck with your channel, I love my Fizzy 2021!!
Thanks so much Paul. Much appreciated!
Really nice mods for every day driving. I Just added a pair of Oxford heated grips to my fazer. They get really hot and they have a good quality.
I’ve never owned a pair but I’ve heard nothing but great things! Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll get some 👍
Was it difficult to install those?
Quick piece of advise: don't get the tankcover. My experience with bikes that have such leather tank covers is that very small dirt will get between the leather and the tank and function like sanding paper due to the vibrations of the bike while driving. The two bikes I came across personally that had those on left me with a completely scratched tank underneath. And actually I did get scratches on the bikes that I've owned, but never on the tank. So maybe that's not really the thing to worry about. Awesome bike and review man, thanks! I'm looking around for a secondary bike besides my cbr1000rr, since that's not really comfortable touring around with the wifey and during winter drives. The fz6 is getting in my head as the top option to go for, since it can still go kinda fast but is also comfortable for the longer tours. Thanks again!
Wow excellent piece of advice thank you! You’ve probably saved me a lot of money and heart ache. Especially as my tank is in pretty good condition.
I would recommend the FZ6 for what you’re describing. It can be a rugged winter work horse and a fun ‘sportier’ bike. And great for pillions with the large handles and peg lower hand kit 👍
I need to get fender extender ,also a couple more really handy gadgets to have that I have on mine are double USB point , so handy for sat nav and phone also connection for Oxford trickle charger.great vids fella 👍
Cheers Steve glad you like the videos . I’d recommend the fender extender, keep the crud off of the motor. I think I’ll get a double USB point too. This singe port I have has broken and I often get I need two on the go.
Good idea on the passenger peg extenders!
👍 Cheers! They don’t extend them much... but apparently the additional leg room really helps
@@FabMotorbikes About 3 inches diagonally you said?
Yea that's it. I was sceptical... but my girlfriend says it helps. So well worth it.
I have had my FZ6 S2 since 2007 and fitted a full fairing , this then is the best looking Bike on the road ,as was previous Fazers owned.
Nice one! I do like the full fairing look but belly is my preference. Good choices on bikes by the way 👍
Great video, thanks. I like the radiator guard too. Was the belly pan easy to fit? I’m guessing it comes with the necessary bolts/clamps. I’m going to fit clear indicators on mine ( 09 FZ6N s2. You should think about fitting them to yours too.
Radiator guard is a great addition and must have. Mine came with my bike but glad to have it.
The belly pan I got (link in description) comes with all the necessary bolts and fittings instructions. However... wasn’t a 100% perfect fit. It needed warping ever so slightly to get on. It also sits a bit too snug against the radiator pipe on the left of the bike. So had to protect that some what with a simple mod. Having said all this... I’ve had it on for two years with zero problems.
I’ve not thought about clear indicators... what are the benefits? Is it an aesthetic choice? (Which I’m cool with)
Thanks!
@@FabMotorbikes there’s a few things I’m going to purchase ready for the summer 👍🏼 far too cold to get the bike out atm. Thanks for the info on the belly pan, I think I like the look of with and without it but probably just prefer it with. And not many have them which is cool. I think the clear indicators lenses just modernise the bike a bit. Happy riding and keep the videos coming 👍🏼
Agreed, way too cold at the moment! Looking forward to spring. Thanks and safe riding too 👍
Xenon lights are a must have and tank protector, got those two things for mine.
Thanks will look into it! I’ve not heard of xenon lights, but I guess they are far brighter?
@@FabMotorbikes you might know them by HID lights, xenon is the gas they have inside and it's the name they are known around here.
Ah yes. I do know them 👍😊
Nice vidéo ✌️✌️✌️
Thanks 😊
Exactly right about bike's making them the way you want them to be/look like.
Yamaha have genuine replacement led blinking more compact less drain on the battery and brighter than the original bulb type.
Yes being so easily customisable is part of the beauty and fun of motorcycles. I just made a video on replacing the bulbs, but starting to wish I had upgraded them.
Hey fab love the vids. I have a 2005 fz6 my wife has bad knees and struggles to get onto bike. Do you have a link or company name of rear footrest extenderss
Cheers
Davey
Sure here you go! Thanks for watching and I hope these help your wife 👍

Las dos mejoras mas importantes oara mi es suspencion invertida y basculante de r6 o fz8
I've got a 2008 s2 in black too, where did you get the belly pan from? All I can find is one for 139 un painted :(
I got mine from red-fox.com. However when I go on their website, they appear to not make any parts for Yamaha any more... : (
I got an 06 love the bike and if i had to guess i think i owned maybe 50 bikes in my life lol but there is just something about this bike won’t trade her or sell for me to stay with one bike as long as this is saying alot
Wow, 50 bikes! That’s a good sample size. And to say the FZ6 is one of the best is quite something. But it makes sense. This bike is amazing. Has anything come close out of the 50?
Well done. :)
Thanks! Glad you liked it 😊
nice jacket
Thanks! I got it a long time ago but I think this is it >> www.gearxwears.co.uk/detail.php?nod=16&cat=
Great looks and protection, but not very warm. 👍
Have your mods except belly pan and side cases. Had mine singing yesterday passing cars after dropping 3 gears. I'm getting rid of the bt31 tyres for some Bridgestone S21 tyres. Front suspension next,getting tired the old girl. Like me at 70 .
Sounds like your having loads of fun! And I hope to be out passing cars too in 40 years time 😊 good on you. My front end is doing okay… the suspension is definitely not the most sophisticated on this bike but does me well. I’ve been planning a fork oil change for a while. That’ll probably be an up coming video 👍
I tried to order the Red fox belly pan for my Fazer S2 2010. After sending them an email what specific type I should order their short response was not clear at all and confusing, not only for me but for several fellow riders that saw it. I asked them again to email me the link of the specific model and they just refused saying that we luck of communication. Professional!
That’s an awful experience. Sorry to hear that 🙁
Will the fender extender fit on 2004-2007 models?
Hi there, I don’t think that one will.
But the same people on eBay have one sale for your bike (www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-FZ6-Fazer-06-07-Fender-Extender-/202443073547?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292)
It may be worth have a shop around too. A good fender extender is definitely available for your bike. Pyramid parts (pyramid-parts.com/) do some good ones. 👍
For phone mount system try ultimate add-ons in Scotland
Cheers I’ll look into it 👍
Fabian, the belly pan is no longer available on that website you have given the link to. Can you please provide an alternative link (eBay, Amazon, etc)? Thanks. I found some cheaper ones (50-60£) on eBay and I wonder if they're any good.
Ah sorry man that’s annoying… that belly pan is really good. It’s a shame it’s not available. I’ve done a bit of research and this one on Amazon looks quite good (here>> amzn.to/3hFCciJ). I’ve seen a lot of people online with this one. But is more expensive.
@@FabMotorbikes Holy crap ain't it true that being a motorcyclist can be quite an expensive hobby? 😃 I'll have to skip on this belly pan due to its high price and hope I won't damage the bike down there. Thanks anyway!
No problem. And yes it can be really expensive!
How much it's coast now in the London? How old you yamaha ? How many km?
This bike is a 2008 model. It had 26,000km on it and cost me £2500. I hope this helps you 👍
Really nice price.I hope i will find same nice condition and price. I am going to buy also Fz6 2008 s2.
Yea I didn’t realise how lucky I got. But well worth keeping an eye out, there are some great deals out there!
When you were talking about the crash bungs I thought you said "Orangey" and thought, "but they're black". Then the penny dropped.
Haha! After another watch it does sound exactly like that 😂😂😂
Nothin about that seat??? Looks cozy and doubt its stock. Mine looks very different.
No mine is a stock seat?? How is yours different?
@@FabMotorbikes Really?! Ah man! Mines like a vinyl dimpled material. Noy comfy
Ah yes I’ve seen those. 😊 Do you have the S2 model? Or the earlier version?
@@FabMotorbikes Probably earlier. Im not sure... It is a 2009. But it is Canadian.
Mines a 2008. I would have thought they’d have the same seat. Not sure what’s happened there. The one I have is great, I’d definitely recommend it.
Yea mate you forgot a K&N washable air filter that you can service yourself over & over instead of getting stitched up by Yamaha for a expensive throwaway paper element.
The paper ones are pretty cheap. Abs also I would have to go and check the engine mapping if I put a K and N filter in. It messes With the air/fuel ratios
Hello, the videos are not bad for you, but you failed in this one, the engine is fantastically elastic precisely because of the torque, so for a reason it is wild only above 8000 rpm, find another engine that goes smoothly on the sixth from 80 to 240 kmh, as far as consumption is concerned mine has never exceeded 6.4lu hard driving otherwise it is normal 5.5 to 6 l. F
my model is a 2009 fazer S2
Thanks again. So good to hear your thoughts . Really helpful 😊👍
Lol modifications.... U mean bolt on bits... There is a big difference
Haha! Yep true, bit of a mistake on reflection. There’s a few good comments on this video suggesting mods you might like 👍
słabe te rady. not really good improves
I may have title the video a bit incorrectly... I admit. Thank you for watching though
Hai cambiato il manubrio?
no, questi sono gli originali
