Hi guys and gals, I'm looking at a very nice conditioned, low mileage 08 FZ1 Tuesday, what should I be looking out for apart from the obvious checks, it also has a full service history?

Hi foccers, I'm buying a new (to me) bike from Goole in Yorkshire next Tuesday, if anyone is nearby it'd be great to meet if you fancy it?

FZS600 Fazer / Airbox to carb Jubilee rings
« on: 01 July 2019, 11:48:29 pm »
Quick question, can anyone tell me the size of jubilee ring I need for the airbox side of the carbs?

So my much loved FZS600 is up for sale.
I've had this bike three years and serviced it twice in this period, this month it has had..
Fork oil 15w & seals changed,
Oil, air & fuel filter changed,
NGK plugs,
Castrol Power 1 oil change,
New coolant,
New EBC front rotors & pads,
Carbs cleaned & new bowl seals, float seats & needles.
Cameleon vinyl colour changing wrap,
New seat cover,
New ultra bright LED sidelight.

MOT until June 2020, no advisories.
It has an HID conversion on left headlamp, Oxford heated grips, dual USB charger & META 357T v2 alarm (with two fobs & code card)
The clock shows 76,000 miles, bit this is not true representation, 2010 it was on 24,000 at MOT, 2011 it was presented at MOT with no speedometer (it was not working I was informed at purchase) 2012 MOT it had a replacement Speedo but showed 68,000 (off another bike) it's now showing 76,000 and I've done just over 6000 of them in the last three years.


£1600 elsewhere but to a fellow foccer £1400.

Here is a video link to view.

FZS600 Fazer / Raximo short levers
« on: 25 June 2019, 09:42:23 pm »
Howdy all you filthy foccers, I was wondering what your opinions on Raximo short levers are, I'm looking to swap mine out but am wary of the cheaper Chinese ones on fleabag, these are what I'm looking at?

FZS600 Fazer / Carburetor quandary!
« on: 16 June 2019, 09:58:33 pm »
Hi foccers, I'm in need of your combined wisdom.
Recently experienced problems with number 1 cylinder not firing, got fuel, got spark, drained bowls and found crap in the fuel. Removed carbs, cleaned all diaphragms (no holes or kinks) cleaned bowls, cleaned all jets, reassembled and ran, bike fired on all 4 (hooray,) started next morning and back to 3 cylinders getting hot, this time number 1 was fine but number 4 not hot now, have I missed something?
I know I need to get new bowl rubbers as I can see one of the bowls weeping a little (any advice on reliable seals?)
It's got me baffled?

Hello fellow foccers, I need to ask your advice!
My beloved 2000 plate fzs has been misfiring of late so I decided to start by swapping out the plugs, the off side inner most would not budge, even after heating up, later spraying with penetrating oil and leaving for a week, and culminating in giving it one last try today and it shearing leaving the bottom half of the ceramic and the metal threaded part still in the head!
My local bike garage has costed me around £600 for engine to be removed, head split (to clear out any left over ceramic) new gaskets and sundries, rebuilt and put back in bike, does anyone know any tips or tricks or do I have to bite the bullet and murder the wife to get my hands on her insurance? 😜

Introduction / Excited to be here!!!
« on: 07 June 2016, 11:35:34 pm »
Well I'm am christened 'Dean' but usually answer to whatever expletive my Mrs screams at me!
I'm 43 candles & just taking my Mod1 & 2 in a months time (All though I've ridden for years, just never made the jump).
Bought a rather nice 2000 plate Fazer 600 that has almost been lovingly brought back to life all bar a few little odds & sods. Totally love the bike & am itching to get out on it properly!
Really love that this is a community of like minded individuals & can't wait to exchange a few wise cracks as mine are quite cheesy (I literally mean that) i.e.  How do you handle extremely dangerous cheese?
....,
Caerphilly!
