Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Rear suspension parts
« on: 26 April 2020, 07:50:18 pm »
I've found play in my rear linkage and wondered if anyone has the part numbers to get them from bearing suppliers rather than being robbed by Yamaha?

Does anyone know what size thread is on the sump plug? I'm after buying some crush washers but want to avoid taking mine off to find out what it is!

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Uncomfy seat
« on: 29 October 2019, 11:47:03 am »
My seat is now 18 years old is getting uncomfy after around 1 hour of riding. I wouldn't mind having it redone with the gel inserts, anyone have any recommendations for who can do it? Cheers.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Ignition Advancer
« on: 25 April 2019, 08:04:20 pm »
I've bought a 4 deg ignition advancer, but when I've tried to fit it I can't get the bolt holding the original to slacken.
I do have an impact driver and an air powered rattle gun but due to it being on the crank end I didn't fancy risking it, what has everyone else used to crack the threadlock??

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / K&N Air Filter
« on: 09 February 2018, 06:57:17 pm »
It's coming round to service time and I was wondering just what benefit a K&N has over a paper filter other than being re-usable? Had the pod style ones one my X7 years ago but all these seemed to do was cause loads of induction roar!!

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Insurance renewal time!
« on: 15 July 2017, 02:19:46 pm »
It's that dreaded time of the year again trying to get a competitive quote, anyone got a recommendation other than the usual comparison websites??

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / FZS 1000 starting issues
« on: 10 June 2017, 11:22:13 am »
My 1000 has developed an issue when starting, sometimes it just clicks like the solenoid is energising but won't spin the starter. When this happens it also resets both trip meters and the clock as if the battery has been disconnected. Any ideas, I presume it's shorting somewhere but any pointers would be appreciated guys!

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Not running on all 4 pots properly
« on: 03 October 2016, 05:24:55 pm »
Went out for a spin on Saturday and did about 100 miles no problem. Fired it up this morning to ride to work and it isn't running on all 4 pots properly. Can smell unburnt fuel when I'm close to the bike but it's still rideable, just hesitating at low revs, ie: below 3000rpm. Any ideas before I start ripping it in pieces!!

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / R6 shock mod (again!)
« on: 24 September 2016, 04:43:19 pm »
Hi, if I was going down the route of swapping out the shock on my Gen 1 what year of R6 shock would I need?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Gen 1 1000 "smelling hot"
« on: 05 September 2016, 03:29:18 pm »
Had my bike for just over a month now and am mighty impressed with it. One thing I've noticed is that if it's been use at low speed for a while it sometimes "smells hot". The fan works and coolant is at the correct level. Maybe it's because of the stoneguard fitted to the rad by a previous owner?? Anyone had the same symptoms? Temp light doesn't come on so presume all is well!

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / FZS 1000 end can
« on: 24 July 2016, 10:55:33 am »
Hi, as you can probably see I'm new on the forum as I've only just purchased a Gen 1 1000. What I'd like to know if anyone out there has tried it is will a Fazer 600 Micron (1999) end can fit onto my bike? Only asking as I have the chance to get one at a v. good price! Cheers John.
