- In this video the FZ6 hits the dyno at MAS Cycles in Langley, British Columbia. Mike as MAS was really nice and gave me some ideas of putting R6 camshafts into the FZ6. I'm told the cams are a direct fit and with a r6 ignition map flashed on the FZ6 ecu the bike could pick up 10-15 whp.
Let me know if you'd like to see me do this R6 camshaft swap!

Thank you for putting up content for the FZ6 community. 👍🏼
My pleasure!
@@Calvinm Yeah thanks Calvin! +1 your the go to guy on youtube, for our beloved Fizzers 😁
+1 on the cam swap. Would be really interesting.
Haha bro is the only guy putting fz content out. I decided the fz is the best bike for me but no one else makes anything else interesting on it so thank you!
You’re welcome!
YES DO IT! , swap the cams. There's plenty of R6 , there's plenty of FZ6 but no Hi breeds high rev 15 grand FZ6-SR
I think an R6 cam swap would be awesome.
it would lose midrange torque but sounds fun
Midrange would just be a few 100 rpms later...
A bit lower then expected at 85. I usually assume a 10% loss to the rear wheel. Still got the same bike and 85 still feels pretty solid. Got extensions for handlebar so it's even more upright.
If you do a cam swap I'll try to cam swap my 06 FZ6. Make sure you do tutorials and I'll just follow along lol
Yes, do the camshaftswap! Would be awesome and unique.
Do the Cam Swap!!
I’ve heard once you do the R6 cam swap the daily drivability suffers because supposedly you get less low end torque, but make a ton more power up top.
I know with mine with just the stock cams, on the street by time I get into power I’m already getting into illegal speeds so I’ve gotta slow down.
From my research that just gets moved up with R6 cams, so you’re going even faster before you start making good power
Ya the power band will move up the rev range a little that's for sure. I agree the power already comes on at high speeds on stock cam but maybe I'll just have to try the R6 cams to find out if it's worth it for everyone else.
@@Calvinm yes please do and let me/us know!
Right now I’m looking into getting a bigger bike, but I’d much rather spend the money on some R6 cams if it doesn’t move up the power range too much
R6 cams will move the torque peak up to higher rpm and you will have to rev the engine higher to get going, but you can swap sprockets for shorter garing and get better acceleration.
Exactly, so leave the bike as it is and change the attack sprocket to get better acceleration. You don´t need the bike working at 240-230 or even 220kmh... 200 is enought.
@@Big1_ but touring at 8-10k rpm isn't ideal either.
Do the cam swap it would be DOPE!
Italian made Mivv exhausts make a few different styles to fit all FZ6 models that claim significant HP increases
I'll check it out. Thanks!
Yeah that's true, my R6 made 100hp with an FZ6 crankcases and a carburetted R6 cylinder head. Commonly known as the 5SL conversion
Do the cam swap!!
A swap can be interesting give it a try
Mine was super wavy too! I ended up with 88hp and 44 ft lbs. What is your altitude? Higher means less air density=less bang.
I'm only about 800 feet.
If you do the cam swap VIDS MUST HAPPEN!!!!!!
I wonder if its just because he has done so many miles on his FZ6 and a few horses have run away (even though he does great maintenance)
The altitude where this was filmed was very close to sea level at 100m above sea level (or 330 feet). Of course there would be R6 cam swap videos if the swap gets done. At this rate I think it'll be happening!
I want to see the cam swap
My fz6s2 is a European version and it makes 98whp and 48 ftlbs. Im wondering why yours is low. Mine is a 2007 model, buy mine is red does that mean a red one us faster lol. Great content bruv
98hp in camscraft, at the wheel 90-88hp....
@@Big1_ 98 whp dynojet 250 machine.
Nice video.Why not swap some things from the faster brother of the FZ6 ???
I just bought a 2006 fz6s … I wonder what they done with… just did 140 mph on 4. Gear…
Cam swap please!
the FI system and trans are also different
Big up Calvin, as always!! did you change the cams man? 2022 now. 👍🏽👍🏽
I haven’t done the cam swap. Not really sure if it’s in the future plans either. I really enjoy taking the FZ6 on long road trips and I don’t want to jeopardize the reliability of it with a cam upgrade. Also with the way gas prices are going I’m enjoying putting regular gas in the FZ6 which I wouldn’t be able to do after the cam swap... so it might happen way off in the future but for now I enjoy the bike the way it is.
@@Calvinm👍🏽
@@Calvinmgreat videos! With using regular gas do you notice any detriment Long term?
If you're doing the cam swap I might do it as well 😏
Nice!
Me as well 🙈
Already rocking Arapović on my FZ6 that's supposedly giving her some additional powa
I have the same bike and I plan to do cams, different thickness headgasket, some new exhaust and a custome tune.... would like to get up the 110 hp to 120 hp mark... if possible....
Ya I read a thinner headgasket was a design change the R6 engine has. Let me know the results!
Timing another difference between the fz6 and r6. I know you can do a timing mod to the fz6 and it can add up to 10hp across the rev range but then have to use 93 octane fuel and in hotter climates maybe even switch to cooled plugs. Timing mod+power commander+k&n filter+catless mid pipe/exhaust+good tune could get you close to those numbers. Hopefully in the spring I can get my bike to a dyno to see if it's possible
Do the MT-07 clutch pusher arm linkage swap and see how the shifting becomes less clunky
I did this mod and its like night and day. It gives you a wider friction zone for the clutch and makes the clutch "lighter/easier to pull
I did this on mine also. It definitely helped a bit, but I still like the clutch on most other sport bikes I've ridden.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention! I've been meaning to modify the arm for a long time. My work around was to keep the stock clutch lever (long grip) but this looks like the mod I've been meaning to try to run shorter levers! Thank you.
Strange question, got a FZ6 but the camshaftchain broke and demolished my engine. So i'm looking for another engine. Do know if an R6 block wil fit de FZ6, maybe with adjustments? Just for a few extra Hp 😉
I don’t know if it’ll fit. Internally it’s slightly higher compression and the head is improved to rev higher. As for the bolting points to the frame, I’m a little skeptical it’ll line right up unless someone has done it before.
Where are we on the Header polish and THE CAM SWAP!
Header polish was done in a video I'll link down below. The cam swap is still in the schedule to happen but I plan on doing it in September at the end of the riding season. As much as I would love to throw the R6 cams in before this season, I have a few road trips planned on the FZ6 and I don't want to discover long term problems with the cam swap when I'm hundred of miles from home.

If you wanna up those numbers get a better exhaust system an upgrade your fuel system such as your fuel pump and your fuel injectors and of course swap out the cam
Was this just stock or was this tuned at all?
Totally stock
+1 for cam swap
Why no peak HP in first gear?
The timing in first and second gear is retarded. Timing is another difference between the fz6 and r6
I'm torn. I wanna see it done because I have the same bike. Can the bike handle the power? If so, go for it. I like the comfortability of the fz6 position too.
I sure hope the bike can handle it. If not I’ll find out 😂
Did you make it ? (cam swap i mean)
I did not… ending up buying a 2015 FJ09
Any tips on cleaning dirty stained headers for fz6?
I have a video coming out on just this topic in the near future! Try this metal polish called autosol!
normally 96 bhp
84HP? Shouldn't it make 98hp?!!!
