its a 98....what kind of modifications have to be done to the bike so it will still run while 12vs.......cause my engine is startin to knock around 5500 6000, so im startin to think that there was some type of modification i should have made so the bike isnt starving for oil.....thats my guess if any of you gurus could enlighten me to what i should do and/or what could possibly be going wrong with my engine i would appreciate it

Better ask Weber about that one. He seems to be the man on the 6R.

As far as the oil starvation, I've never had a problem. With the stall and restart, you need to raise the float height 1.5 mm and bypass the fuel pump. I have heard some people are using the tip sensor to cut the fuel pump in the 12's. Just remember, if you do that, you will have poor performance on quick takeoffs.

i cant scrape yet but i can roll out extremely close, the bike does run out of fuel if your on stock settings. i have my bowls set at 10mm, stock setting is 7 to 9 mm. this seems to help but its ot fuel injected so it does take a minute to get started. and it really sucks if the bitch cuts out b4 you can bring it down!!!!but otherwise im 2 up in the back, 1 down in the front, fully piped and jetted and i wouldnt trade my bike for any other!!as far as oil starvation i have never had a problem, i run nothing but 20-50 and have no abnormal engine noise at 13,000 miles(beat down miles)

I have a 01zx6r but I cant scrape yet but am very close. My bike stays running and will run on the bar. I dont have a fuel pump and the floats are raised. Geared -2, +5. I had another 01 zx6r and you really cant tell the differnce without the fuel pump, maybe at high speeds, since I havent tried topping out my stunt bike.
