My New Fazer. ( couple of issues )

[jp2000]

Finally had my first Fazer delivered last night. chuffed to bits with her. Just a couple of issues to sort out. 65k a little high but it was cheap    Any advice would be appreciated. Exhaust seems to be blowing around the EXUP valve. biggest issue is the clutch. clutch works when riding but when I come to a stop im unable to get neutral and clutch doesn't disengage properly as the bike still wants to move. Would this just be a worn out clutch ? or could it be something else. Thanks for any advice.

Exup blowing - carefully undo the outer cover 3 bolts - which are mild steel from new and prone to shearing - and see whether you can determine where the gasses are escaping and post back to us. There's a wealth of exup knowledge on here but it is a weak point on these bikes until sorted and regularly serviced. Replace with stainless screws if not already done....


Clutch - this could be a worn clutch but best to check the simple things first - try adjusting the cable. If that doesn't fix it then changing the cable might. Genuine cables are relatively expensive but after market cables are not worth the packaging they come in.


Hope this helps.

A worn out clutch will slip rather than fail to disengage. Same goes for the springs.

Sounds like the cable needs adjusting to move the biting point further away from the bars.

Taken the cover off today the clutch appears to be brand new but the plug on the main shaft is missing so I think this is the cause. Can anyone help with a part number or where to get one from please.

This is his issue see picture, I replied in your other post, try the local engineering shop (engine Builders) they should have the plugs its around 1/2" in size. Drive it in about 5mm from the end of the shaft
