FZS600 Fazer / Re: Front Sprocket

OK great, thanks Darrsi.


I'll open it up and investigate, and get a 12mm nut put on there.


I'm also going to measure the size of the spindle as I read on another thread if it's greater than 17mm then it's not affected.


It's just that I'm doing a lot of touring and all the time I'm cruising down the motorway I'm thinking "what if...". Just need to put my mind at rest.


Thanks for your help.

FZS600 Fazer / Front Sprocket
« on: 01 October 2012, 11:03:44 pm »

Hello Folks,

Firstly just to quickly introduce myself: I'm Andy and I've recently become the proud owner of a 2002 FZS 600 Fazer. My first big bike and I absolutely love it. So pleased I chose the Fazer.

Anyway, having been reading these forums I've become aware of the problems many people have reported with the front sprocket nut.

I'm a little concerned about this and would like to begin by checking my own bike to see if the nut is secure.

My question for now is: does the cover to the front sprocket require a gasket seal? Or can I safely remove this at home and have a quick peak?

It's been a long time since I've done any motor mechanics so please consider me an amateur. Is this something I can check myself?

Also any hints on what I should look for to confirm if it's OK or has old/new part appreciated.

All the best, Andy
