I finally got all the wiring and bits but will save it for a winter project. For now, here's the pick of the ZX6R streetfighter build. I've just temporary strapped on the oem speedometer. It's angled away from me so I can't really see it while riding lol but it's been helpful trying to...

I cleaned out a 2009 ZX6R tank that's been sitting for a few years. I did vinegar soak for few days then hosed it down with baking soda. I put a heatgun into the tank to dry it out as soon as possible. I later realized it still flash rust rather quickly. Just leaving my cap open for a bit and...

Do you have any extra generator/crankcase/clutch covers for sale, in particular NRC stuff?

Is it something like this?

Noted and yeah I won't buy knock offs. Found a used regulator off a 2012 Yamaha for $50 that I'll probably grab. Don't see to see any harness though using the keywords 'harness' or 'wiring'. Is there another specific term that would help?

Wow! Was the cost much less when you got it? Which kit did you go with or did go with only regulator? The investment is much more than originally expected.

Which regulator and lithium battery did you go with? I'm going to finally try and finish up my FZR this winter and may go for lithium as well... Last time I tried to finish the project I had a new AGM in there and it's since died because of my neglect ...

I will take you up on it! I found the plug that goes on the wiring harness so will need to run the wires from the dash into this thing. https://www.corsa-technic.com/item.php?item_id=1256&category_id=200 Can you tell if my wiring assumptions are correct above post #14? Universal...

You're right good catch! I've updated the post from the right service manual!

Reviving an old post as I've finally have time to work on my bike again, and hoping to get some help with wiring this tachometer. Here are my assumptions, using the existing gauge to understand the harness, but I don't seem to see anything for the tach or speed on the ZX6R plug? ZX6R...

Thanks, Brian. Followed your method and found that the regulator is fine but the harness plug at regulator was the issue. Seems like one of the wire at the plug was crushed and really hard to tell unless looking for this closely.

G comes from the rectifier. W to the left of G goes to 'battery' on the ignition switch. Could the rectifier also be the culprit then?

Thanks for this write-up, Brian. Super helpful. It'll take me some time for me to digest and apply as I'm very new to electrical. Few basic questions: Is this test with the relay off the bike, or on bike and just battery disconnected? If on the bike, do I ground pin 11 directly to bike frame...

I have a 2009 ZX6R track bike that I'm converted back for street use. Still has OEM wiring harness that's untouched from what I can tell. Everything works fine except no power to both sockets of high and low beam. I tested with a multimeter with the bike/engine running. I took the cluster off...

What ready available hardware would you use?

I have a '13 zx6r intregrated tail light (left) I want to use for my '09 (right). The wiring is the same just different socket ends. I want to avoid cutting off both sockets to splice them together. Anyway I can buy just the female plug end for the '09 so I can swap it on the light? Checked my...

Starting to see folks born post 2000 at work...

Link to model?

I'm bad with electrical and no idea if the odo value is stored in the ECU on the ZX. There's a bit of mix response on the "ease" but given some of the helpful instructions I may give the universal gauges a go! Cheap enough that worst case I just abandon and go gaugeless.

Thanks for the insight. The calibration sounds like a lot of work. The RPM reading would be nice but I'll just have to go by feel/sound. I'll still look for some cheap GPS unit to make sure I'm not speeding. Any suggestions on something cheap so I won't feel terrible if it gets stolen?
