Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / he poor girl needs an oil change
« on: 29 November 2020, 08:29:44 pm »
I need to make a oil change on my 09 FZ1 and I need to know what washer I need for the sump plug, can anyone tell me and where I can find one, and does it need to be genuine yamaha? I have not been on for while due to a bad accident, but on the road to recovery.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / FZ1 exup motor and cables
« on: 11 February 2015, 03:00:08 pm »
I am looking at an 09 FZ1 it has an after market can but also has the original can as well. I have asked if the bike still has the exup cables and they can't see any. If the exup motor has been removed would this not throw an ECU error. I saw no error when I road it. And it seamed to ride fine. Should I be worried?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Insurance Valuation, am I being Done ?
« on: 12 June 2013, 09:57:08 pm »
I could do with some feedback, I have just had the insurance valuation on my 2002 FZS 1000 that had covered 77K,  £1650, what do you think? It was in excellent condition with R6 Shock Mod, Ivans Jet Kit and serviced every 4K since new. Do you think that is a fair price? BLD are the people that have valued the bike for the insurers, has anyone else had any dealings with them?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / 70 & Smoking
« on: 07 September 2012, 09:06:43 pm »
The old girl 02 has hit 70K and I have noticed that the end can is a bit sooty and when you rev the engine 10 - 11K and back it off you get some smoke. Is this a new engine job or is this normal?

 I am going to monitor the engine oil usage next week and see if its more than Yamaha's recommended oil usage. This engine has been serviced every 4K since new, and always gets a new oil filter every time. I do about 400 miles a week.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / New Clutch Case Bearings
« on: 06 July 2012, 01:09:41 pm »
I am doing some work on the olg girl (Fazer) and I am replacing the clutch casing with a new one I got off ebay. I need to know where I can get the oil seal and top bearing where the clutch actuator rod goes through the casing, also need the lower bearing inside the clutch case. I have checked WEMOTO but know joy, are they only available from Yamaha?  I think there was a link that Devilsyam put up for a company that did bearings but I cannot find it.

« on: 16 May 2012, 07:32:36 pm »
Right I have a copy of a fazer 1000 belly pan on my bike, and its looking putty tired, I was told by the previous onerous that it came some one on the owners club many year ago. Does any one know if they are still available? How much genuine ones from YAMAHA? Or shouldn't I ask ?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Painting Clutch Casing advice
« on: 06 March 2012, 05:03:24 pm »
The winter has taken its toll on my 2002 FZS 1000, the clutch housing has allot of blistered paint and some has come off. I have ordered some paint, primer and Lacquer from RS and I was wondering is it possible to spray it while on the bike or should I take it off? Also does anyone know a good sprayer in the West Midlands that could spray it over if I provide the paint?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Oxford Heated Sports Grips
« on: 29 February 2012, 08:42:40 pm »
Right, Have been running a new set of Oxford Sports grips off the battery for a few weeks to get used to them. I have now wired them into the lighting connectors on the handle bars where I had my hot hands. Noticed tonight that if the bike is on tickover and you turn on the grips it will only light the blue light, i need to rev it, or be Physically running to be able to up the heat setting. Is this OK ?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / What to Do about the Front End?
« on: 16 November 2011, 01:23:34 pm »
Going to be doing the R6 shock mod to my 02 thou, so now I have the dilemma of what to do about the front end. I do not have a bottomless pit of money, so what I am thinking of doing is changing the springs to Hyperpro progressive and a heaver oil. Is this worth doing? All this and a re-valve seems to come out at 400 nicker, which is too rich for my blood. Suggestions please?

I have a 02 Fazer 1000 and i have just ordered the following HID kit http://www.parkingsensoronline.co.uk/h4-hid-conversion-kit-p-327.html. I have spoken to the owner and he has confirmed that they are small Ballasts and should fit quite easily. I have also ordered the additional loom that supplies power to each bulb independently. Is there anyone that has any experience of installing a HID kit on a Fazer 1000 and could offer some advice please? :)
