Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / 190/55 rear tyre
« on: 29 April 2017, 03:36:38 pm »
Just a head up to anyone buying tyres,

I was recently advised to buy a 55 tyre instead of a 50.
Had the tyres changed this morning and I personally think it's the best thing I've changed on the bike so far.
Turn in is better, mid cornering feel improved, slightly higher back end which I prefer.
I run on s20 evo tyres.
The only slight downside would be that it takes a tiny bit more clutch on take off but no big deal.

All personal experience but maybe someone else will enjoy the change

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Suspension fitted the wrong way up?!
« on: 13 April 2017, 01:47:53 am »
Hi,

Is there any reason why my rear fz1 suspension would be fitted with the damping adjuster screw at the top and rebound cog at the bottom???

Just looked at the owners manual and its defiantly backwards.

Bought the bike from a main dealer with only 2000 miles and a good history.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Fz1 bogging down after de cat
« on: 06 April 2017, 09:46:22 pm »

quick question, does anyone have any idea why my fz1 could be starting to bog down between about 1800 and 2600 (roughly) rpm??
She has a pc5 with jondaddy82 map, copperdawg flies, remus powercone slip on, and airbox mod. Last night I took out the middle cat and took a test run this evening, strangely enough it seems to be running smoother and with a little more power above 3500 rpm. But under this, especially over the first few miles, the bike seemed to struggle and bog down.
Will the bike compensate for this at all even with the o2 sensor unplugged??? or do I need to bite the bullet and get to a dyno??
Otherwise, what a fecking awesome bike, had it for 6 months and just getting to give her the riding she deserves now=D

For Sale & Wanted / Fz1 Remus Powercone
« on: 29 March 2017, 09:01:09 pm »
Fz1 stainless steel powercone for sale.

Great condition only been on since November.

Selling due to wanting something carbon to match the rest of the bike, would even consider a swap.

Looks great and with being stainless steel it can be polished up to a really high finish.

Complete with baffle.

Struggling to add photos from my phone so maybe best to pm and I can email them through??

£150 plus postage.

Thanks
