For Sale & Wanted / FZS600
« on: 12 September 2019, 08:09:15 am »

Not sure on price but my FZS600 is getting in my way and is not being used, done only a few miles past 2 years.


Needs front brakes sorting as starting to bind, not got an MOT....


19K miles on engine, has had issue where i snapped an exhaust stud, ended up with the cylinder head off to re-drill a blank opposite to allow exhaust to clamp, no issue since...some may recall the thread, i will never forget it :)


Any one interested would need to pick up and collect with a van, what would people say its worth, bearing in mind what it needs sorting....


- Braided Lines Hel
- Scoprion Exhaust
- Clean rear caliper
- Good chain
- Little bits of rust creeping in...


Will get some pics on later...not got time right now.


Also have an R6 shock that i got off a member here with the dogbones, so someone might want that, not on the bike right now, stock one is on...


Thanks

For Sale & Wanted / Potential FZS600 Box Eyr
« on: 24 October 2017, 08:28:32 pm »
Looking to see if intrest in my fzs600 boxeye in blue

Reasonable condition, standard all around aside from End Can, HyperPro Springs, and Braided Lines

reason for sale just not used any more, was a good first bike for me a few years back but no more

20K ish miles, MOT due this week so should hopefully pass with clean bill of health
 














NB - You can see the inner Clamp is reversed, this is where i had to get a engine shop to drill into a blank as i tried to remove the old stud and could not








Small dent in tank, literally from where i think bars have hit it at some point, not sure, and light scuff on fairing....

Had issue with snapped exhaust stud, ended up with Cylinder head off and repaired at engine shop by drilling into a blank opposite, no issues since and no corrosion on the studs as all replaced, well looked after

Treated with hammerite as needed.....etc

Did have R6 shock on but removed - might sell but may also re-use

Rear tyre loads left literally done a few hundred miles....nice end can etc

Calipers re-built by powerhouse, all smooth, front and rear, new seals etc the lot no rust on pistions

Rear end stripped and re-greased i.e. swingarm pivot back....

No issues with leaking for seals, no funny noises from timing chains etc, runs real nice, starts on the button

New battery also purchased for it when i got it so not original old one but 3 years old...

Been garaged, has been ridden in all weather no reason not too.

As said, good condition, not a minter, but ideal first bike, i just do not use, MOT check will show that i.e. low milage etc, 1500 miles between 2015 MOT and one i tried to get recently but failed due to brakes and electrical issue on headstock harness, brakes serviced and new headstock wiring loom fitted so expext MOT pass

Wont sell without one, so still may not sell if not happy etc....

Location North East - Durham

Cheers

I noticed some tiny scratches on the stanchion, and the MOT man said i could do the seals again, but will most likely just leak..


Reason for post is has anyone dealt with scratches..?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / RPM Needle not stable - with video
« on: 10 September 2017, 07:22:20 pm »

Hi,


Been giving my FZS1000 a good going over before MOT, and have identified an issue.


As shown in the linked video, RPM fluctuates all the time, only by a few hundreds, but its at Idle or when throttle is open.


I have checked spark plugs, replaced them, checked HT Leads, and confirmed sparks, got a few shocks





I have not messed with Air filters, of Fuel filters yet but wonder if this is a sign of bad combustion or somete else i.e. TPS or something


Thanks

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Push cable...
« on: 07 September 2017, 01:11:21 pm »
Might just be me, i cannot figure out how the decellarator cable takes up slack.

Accelerator one is obvious, 2 nuts, one to adjust, one to lock and hold the shaft of the cable into the carb bracket, but the accelrrator one does not seem to do the same...

lost...any pointers...

For Sale & Wanted / FZS1000 potential sale
« on: 27 August 2017, 03:39:19 pm »
Looking to see how much intrest there is in my FZS1000, 99% sure I want to sell, but need a final ride once an MOT is on it to check its all running well as I have had the cylinder head off and not really given it a thrash since, starts fine and sounds fine.

47k Miles ( ish...will double check ), was in a state when I got it i.e. not cleanced, and rusted headers, water pump leak, rear wheel bearing issues, all sorted now.

- Changed Oil/Water Pump
- AIS Mod Done
- New Spark Plugs
- New Chain and Sprocket, as well as rear tyre only seen 200+ miles
- Rear wheel main bearing replaced, kush drive ok
- MOT about to expire, but intend to MOT middle of next month
- System3 Alarm
- One previous owner aside from me
- New MotoBatt Battery as last one was nackered and would not hold charge
- Cylinder head has been off so I could replace some broken exhaust studs and do clearances, new gasket used no sign of any leaks
- EXUP working no 7K signal on startup, but one of the bolts is nackered on the cover, I welded a piece of metal on to fix that
- Carbs balanced as well
- Rear shock is soft, but i am 18 stone, so figures, pre-load is not maxed so could be adjusted, had swingarm and all components off to clean and re-grease bearings, all stock no shock upgrades.
- New Throttle Cables from WeMoto, old one had some nicks

Just don't use it any more as i have a new bike, so its sat and doing nothing, getting in my way as well, so need it gone, and it needs to be used.

Located in North East near County Durham

PM me if anyone may be interested, like I say, need to get MOT first and be happy it rides well before I definitely want to sell, as would not sell a bike with issues, but keen to know the market for it on here, may end up on ebay if no one local wants to take a look at it

FZS600 Fazer / MOT Fail, not sure....
« on: 01 May 2017, 02:32:31 pm »
Hi All,


My FZS600, i am getting it on the road again, the FZS1000 is giving me issue and needs engine work.


I took it for an MOT and it failed, to my shock, the reason being when the indicators are on the headlight dims, so in time with the flashing of the indicators you can see it get a little less bright...


I am a little miffed, i mean, its not obvious and you really have to be looking to see it, but i am not sure what to check.


Any one dealt with issues like that?


Will be checking my FZS1000 lights to see if that does the same.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Cylinder Compression...
« on: 04 March 2017, 06:55:45 pm »
Hi,


I have been having issues with the bike just not feeling like its got the power it should have....


It also seemed hard to start, always needs full choke and even after warming a little is easy to stall, unless its been ridden for a while and its red hot...


I have checked a few things, Carb Sync, all but one are spot on, cylinder 3 shows a little less reading than the rest, 20 less, so is an issue there.


I also took the chance to measure the cylinder compression and get from 1-4 readings of 110, 100, 115, 102, so varied and well off what the service manual states.


Will be trying to pop some oil in the cylinders tommorow or Monday see what a re-test shows.


Engine has done 47K, and i had to replace the Water Pump and rear wheel bearing when i got it, not well looked after...


I also changed all exhaust studs and replaced the cylinder head gasked whilst in there, replaced spark plugs also.


Anyone any comments, do these readings seem well out or reasonable for a bike of this mileage/age

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Engine Water Seal issues.
« on: 09 October 2016, 08:05:03 pm »
Anyone ever replaced the o-rings that seal the Water hoses going into the engine head, the metal bits you bolt in...


I need to change mine, they are item 40 here : https://www.fowlersparts.co.uk/parts/4180115/fzs1000-fazer-5lvf-2003-130-b/water-pump

BUT i got them and they are much thinner, and smaller than the stock ones the part replaces, so much so they do not sit in the recess that is in the head...


They are orange as opposed to black, if anyone knows how to get them fitted it would be appreciated, else i am stumped...


I had my bike alll together today and turned over fine then boom, the seal went on one of these - did not replace when i was doing all the work so should have but reason above is why, just dont look any where near the same


pic on its way

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Throttle Cable free play...
« on: 07 October 2016, 10:36:48 pm »
Have a new push and pull throttle cable installed...


And trying to understand the concept of the free play...


The manual shows it as the movement before the throttle opens, but is this from its resting position after it has snapped back or the difference between if i tried to push it forward as much as possible then wind it on to open it, as if thats the case i have massive free play, but if its the first one i think its in spec

« on: 29 September 2016, 08:17:23 pm »
Trying to get throttle cables back in to the carbs/bars....


Seems to be no way to do it without having carbs out i.e. get cables seated at grips first then at carbs, but even so very difficult


any one got any tips?


Seemed a lot easier on the 600!

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Timing...
« on: 20 September 2016, 06:01:10 pm »
Have put the cams back in my bike today, tried numerous times to get them sync'd but what ever i do, they seems to be a little issue with the exhaust cam...


Intake





Exhaust





I made sure any slack was on the CCT side before putting it on, and wound it on a little to take up the slack...


I may remove the sprockets and try to mess with the way i remove slack but when i put them in the intake cam was slightly off, that is now spot on and the exhaust is off a little

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Radiators...
« on: 19 September 2016, 08:09:12 pm »
So my radiator on this thou i recently bought, i took it off and its in a terrible state, mainly the areas where the bolts that hold the fan on and the grill on locate....


I may be able to do without the grill screws as a new cover may attach to the sides but need to look, anyway, anyone used one of these

« on: 10 September 2016, 09:04:12 pm »
Anyone had success at fixing the "locating" tab on the Right Handlebar Switch cluster, that also has the throttle cables


Just removed mine to remove the throttle cables to get carbs out and its cracked and fell off, can only see units with no light switches on ebay, i may have to transfer things around if i buy one, but strange i can see not many with the right configuration..

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Exhaust Side Cam Chain Guide...
« on: 10 September 2016, 05:44:15 pm »
Hi All,


Need to take camshafts out as clearances are out of spec, have the cover off and cam chain tensioner released, but haynes manual and service manual say to remove the exhaust side cam chain guide, with pliers..


I cam move it a little bit, and pull it upwards a few cm, but it feels like it will need a fair old tug to get out, anyone had any issues, do not want to use too much force and break somete...

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Oil Pan/Sensor Leak
« on: 03 September 2016, 11:20:26 am »
So, i noticed something smoking after a ride last night....


After scrambling around, looks like oil burning off the downpipes, coming from under the engine, i suspect the oil level sensor....


video :


any advice, looking like pipes off job to get to this and that going to be a real pain

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Exup....
« on: 01 September 2016, 10:03:46 pm »
So the EXUP valve on my bike when i got it was showing issues, 7K code at start, so cleaned it up and greased it all up, all is well now aside from a broken bolt ( not me! )


Reason i post is who runs without it, and what impact does it have...


I have read it kills performance and low down torque, yet i see after market exhausts from certain manufacturers that have no EXUP...


Would a dyno against a standard EXUP versus a set of pipes with no EXUP show big differences....

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Swingarm play....
« on: 29 August 2016, 11:33:40 pm »
So, other post details issues with rear wheel bearings...


Have the swingarm off as well and have noted some play in the Swingarm Bolt/Swingarm Spacer pair...

The Swingarm bearings themselves are fine, no movement from them...

The manual states 1mm of play side to side and up and down at the Axel end of the Swingarm is ok..

A video says a 1000 words, so uploading now...


Comments?, i am not sure if i need to address this, my FZS600 has no side to side play.


I also not sure IF i do need to, then do i replace the Bolt, or the Spacer, or both?
