FZS600 Fazer / Re: How to spot an aftermarket fairing
« on: 16 October 2014, 01:19:25 pm »
There are no decals on the fairing when you buy a new one from Yamaha. Have you got the in-fill panels fitted?

Check/change the front tyre. makes a huge difference to the noise thrown up via the gaps in the fairing.

I started my working life as an aircraft engineer and have always had an interest in WW2 etc so tried to see the good bits of the programme. There weren't many to be honest apart from the fact they were building the first Spitfire since 1950 or whenever but they didn't mention that, it was always "rebuilding so and so's Mk1 spitfire he crashed"
Guy is not the greatest presenter and the amount of bits they actually let him loose with on the two or three occasions he turned up to Duxford in the two years of the project were limited to things he couldn't really get wrong.

I used to use one in the office on hot desks as everyone had different laptops. At my desk I had a specific one for my laptop.

the UBS ones were good once you loaded the drivers.

Just watched it on replay. It wasn't a rebuild it was a new build.
The thing that surprised me was how keen they were to get the build exactly on spec rather than build it like they did during the war.
The other thing that made me chuckle was the way they installed things like the prop just like they did in 1940. No torque wrench in site, just a bloke hanging off a pole to get it tight enough.

There was a foccer on here some years ago that made LED replacement tail light assemblies. It may have been Nooj but it was a long time ago.

Venom used to have a nice cheap road legal can for the FZS600. Lots of choice out there but you can pay a premium which isn't worth it on an older bike.

The time you notice it the most is when the kill switch is off. Pressing the starter button just kills the lights making you think you have a flat battery when infact it is just your brain that is flat :pokefun

Check you haven't kinked the breather pipes. That creates a vacuum in the tank and stops fuel flowing freely. Quick fix is to open the filler cap.

My dad has the opposite problem. His wont go out because of a broken wire under the tank.

From memory, the sender unit in the tank only has two wires which control both the light and the gauge. Check the bulb!

I don't understand how a drain hose at the bottom of the tank ahs let water into the tank but use the screws on the bottoms of the carbs to drain them off.
