Welcome. You are a senior member already by just having your Z6, 3.5 years.  Troubles with your unit, if any?

Inside the first hundred miles the rear brake caliper came loose and put a hole in the wheel dealer said a bolt was likely left loose from the factory warranty covered it no problem.... Then this last fall it overheated and was low on coolant did some digging and found that the mechanical seal was leaking that's something that can happen to any machine I've had no other problems at all I've got about 1000 miles on it I've taken it to Hatfield McCoy trails a few times. Brimstone once and this year will be ride royal blue.. Its taken everything I've thrown at it like a champ.


The only 2 things I wish it had a little more power and a couple inches of ground clearance

Oh ya...ground clearance is a must! Can't believe no one has made a lift kit for my Z 800 (53")! :-[

Just an FYI on another sight i was told this lift kit works for the z8 and the z6?

I have not tried it myself but I saw pics of someone installing it on both machines

Can you find the picture or link the other post. The shock eyelets are narrower on the cfmoto. Might work but you may need to shorten the spacer bushings. I did see they had a 2" lift. I would be more inclined to try the 2" because the shaft angle is pretty sharp already.
