DIY Day 2! New battery on my ZX6R and fixing Servo

I got check engine light with code 39 on my 2014 zx6r. After some forum digging I figured it was battery (should've known, my battery was 4 years old) the error code comes translated as ECU Communication Error but it actually was battery.

I also was missing a nut that holds the valve on the servo (exhaust pipe side) and it was making some dragging noise so had to fix that too. Overall pretty productive day!

New battery is BS - YTX9

Just wanted to share with you guys Incase someone face this issue.

2014 Kawasaki ZX-6R 636 KIBS - Intermittent FI light & engine stal

Hi everyone,

Before I proceed just want to give you disclaimer:

I used AI chatbot to form this topic as my English is not good enough to properly explain.

I have a 2014 Kawasaki ZX-6R 636 KIBS (Japanese import) with around 42,000 km.

Yesterday I had a strange issue:

- FI/check engine light came of once I stsrt the bike (I think I didn't wait for the fuel to be primed)

- After turning the bike off and back on, the light disappeared.

- A few hours later the FI light came back and stayed on after starting.

- The bike still started, idled, and pulled normally with no loss of power or unusual noises.

- While turning slowly into my parking spot with the clutch fully pulled in, the engine suddenly shut off as if someone pressed the kill switch. The dash stayed on and did not reset.

- The bike restarted after 2-3 attempts and I got home.

- Today it starts immediately, the FI light only comes on during the normal key-on self-test and then goes out completely.

Other info:

- Coolant temperature reached 104°C in very hot weather/slow riding (I live in MENA region where temperatures are absurdly high)

- Coolant overflow bottle is below the LOW mark (haven't checked radiator level yet).

- Battery age is unknown.

- Spark plugs have unknown service history.

- I also remember seeing the FI light once before when the fuel level was very low.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Could this be a battery/charging issue, side stand switch, crank position sensor, exhaust valve servo, fuel pump/filter, or something else?

Any advice on what to check first would be greatly appreciated.

Community Spotlight: 4Riders

At r/UAERiders, one of our goals is to support projects that contribute to the motorcycle community. Today we'd like to introduce 4Riders, a motorcycle-focused app developed by fellow rider u/santiago-3113 who has been an active member of our subreddit.

4Riders is designed around the riding experience, bringing together navigation, trip recording, route discovery and a social community in one place.

Some of the features include:

  • Trip recording with live GPS tracking, speed, ride time, distance traveled and weather information.
  • A route planner for creating and organizing rides.
  • Community posts where riders can share photos, routes and experiences.
  • Ride discovery, allowing you to explore routes completed by other riders together with statistics and photos.
  • A Missions system that encourages riders to visit scenic destinations and complete riding challenges while earning badges and climbing the rankings.
  • A personal Garage where you can add your motorcycles, including photos, model information, mileage and even a nickname for each bike.
  • Rider communities where owners of specific motorcycles, local riding groups and enthusiasts can connect.
  • Live location sharing, allowing friends or family to follow your ride for added peace of mind.

One feature we particularly enjoyed is the Missions section. Instead of simply tracking your rides, the app encourages you to discover new roads and destinations, making every ride feel like an adventure.

The overall interface is clean, responsive and easy to navigate, with large controls that remain practical even while wearing riding gloves.

If you're looking for an app to record your rides, discover new routes, connect with other riders and organize your motorcycle adventures, 4Riders is definitely worth checking out.

You can download the app here:

Why are small displacement engines so under appreciate it here in UAE?

I see a lot of people jumping straight on inline 4s or some massive engine displacement bikes. With current fuel prices and generally for commuting or having fun in a city with all the speed cameras 125-250-400cc makes a lof of sense. People tend to come and give their two cents without even being asked how riding small displacement is a bad experience while in reality it is not.

​

I would like to know your opinion on the subject!

Cold start I know Kawasaki is famous with the rattle, the bike is new to me it was inspected by two garages with no issues. Mind you the noise is not that loud but it's in a empty parking and my phone picks up quiet well.
