Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: What wheelie technique?
« on: 28 February 2016, 11:31:02 pm »
Why do wheelies ? All it does is do the wheel bearings and headstock bearings to death?
Dont do wheelies on my bike it,s faster without them ?

« on: 05 February 2016, 04:14:11 pm »
Hi been doing the rear wheel bearings today all the bearings came out easily enough even the needle bearing  :lol .

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / To Drill Or Not To Drill?
« on: 02 October 2015, 02:30:05 pm »
Hi just bought a new Yoshimura tri-oval end can,fitting instructions are simple as per usual but at the bottom it says to drill 4 7/8" holes in the airbox lid?
Don,t like the idea of drilling holes in the top of the airbox but it says to do it so should I?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: R6 shock Mod fazer 1000
« on: 27 March 2015, 11:07:57 pm »
Out with the old and in with the new  :)





Was,nt as easy to fit as I thought,but the torque settings seemed very low but I stuck to them.
Ok i,ve taken the bike for a good 30 mile spin and I thought the standard shock was ok a bit bouncy but now the R6 conversion it,s sooo much better handles bumps better and has less squat under accerelation and reminds me I need new tyres a big thanks to Devilsyam for the doglegs and the gumption to make a non standard shock fit !! :lol

P.s Anyone got a front end setup guide now I have a big ass end !
