Hey all


After an absence of a few years from the world of Fazer after selling my wee 600 I am happy to report that I am once again a Fazer owner in the shape of a 2003 Gen 1 Fazer 1000!!


Pics to follow when I work out how. Higher milage at 57k but in really good condition and has had a lot of time and effort spent on her by the previous owner including the full monty ivans kit, uprated suspension, luggage, comfort seat, elcetrical amp gauge and gear indicator thingy (dead technical me) and much more


look forward to seeing the Scottish contingent out and about


Cheers

Up for sale is my lovely 2001 fzs600 Fazer in the S trim
cracking bike and only selling as I need a more touring type bike for some long distance trips coming up.
lots of extras including :
R6 shock conversion which is superb and less than 1000 miles from new
full stainless exhaust system
30mm bar risers as I am tall but easy to remove
double bubble screen
radiator cover
hugger
Michelin PR3 tires 700 miles ago so almost brand new and best tires I have had on any bike
chain and sprockets changed about 1000 miles ago so again almost new
new brake pads all round striped rear caliper with new internal seals etc
rennteck rack (the top box plate is NOT included)
braided lines with fresh fluids when pads done
new fork oil and seals
bike will be getting full years MOT from wednesday 8th April but still has current one
also will do oil and filter in next day or so
mileage may go up a bit as I use it for work as well as play and is just under 30k. She runs beautifully and uses no oil or coolant apart from what is in her.
Looking for £1700 ono but no daft offers please it is a great bike that needs nothing and it ready to go.


Bike is in Kinross, Scotland.
Test ride welcome with cash and insurance. you bin it you buy it
Thanks for looking

As above,i am wondering if an end can from something else will fit my boxeye? Can't find a cheap road legal second hand one on fleabag so wondered if I can widen search. Would a thundercat be the same?

Hi all, my end can has nfr use on it and I was wondering if anyone knows of what type of tape or sticker would cover it safely. For some reason it is written in between the rivet strap at the back of the can so wondered if I could wrap it as MOT man says what the can't see don't hurt ;-)
Can not loud so not problem there just don't want any issues with it if I get stopped for anything

Bike is so yellow and black so something that looks OK with that would be good.
Thanks
Mark

Afternoon all
Am thinking of replacing the end can on the fazer  and wondered if anyone has used or heard of  delkevic or simmi exhausts? Both look similar spec and only after a standard round stainless so prices are almost the same too but no idea if they are quality ornot ?
Simmi says lifetime guarantee, delkevic 12 months. Any thoughts are welcome. Have stainless system on just now but not legal end can :O

Hey all just a wee query on longevity really. I see alot of peeps saying they get 10k plus on tires and wondered WTF am I doing wrong then. I put conti road attack 2 on the bike when I get her a couple months back and like them apart from wet where they have felt a bit slidy once or twice but nothing major...anywhoo with 2.5k miles done the rear is squared and cant see it lasting much beyond another 1k tbh. I use the bike to commute 40 miles a day some motorway the rest twisty and while i am no rossi i don't hang about either and finally have a bike with no chicken strips left
The road attacks are sposed to be sports tour type so was expecting more milage and will prob change to something else when I change em but I got a smaller capacity bike to save on stuff like this...I got more on my firestorm and that is a tire muncher! Am i too heavy  handed or just not good tire? 

ok so how come the bulb for the left dipped beam is a weird thin thing and where do I get a new one from?


went to replace it as not working and was faced with 2 prong thin bulb in an x shaped holder thing. ebay only has standard bulbs so a bit lost unless i try a dealer?

Hi all been fettling the new girl and noticed that she is quite rattly on tick over until I pull clutch and  then goes quiet.
Could this be cam chain tensioner? Thought that would continue clutch in or out but not sure
Is it normal or do I need to poke about in the clutch?

On plus side new conti road attack 2 tyres on today and feel nice but will run in tomorrow :-)  also new ebc hh pads at front as old ones had about a mm left :-\  tried to replace sprocket but with 12 mm but looks like a two man job as just turns motor over with breaker bar.... Still least it means old one won't come off anytime soon
Cheers

Just a wee update to say that I have myself a fazer again but this time it is a gen 1 600 in the s spec and is gold and white

Hey all


I am looking to come back to fazer land in the next few weeks once I sell my firestorm so if anyone is thinking of selling up give me a shout


willing to travel 50-60 miles for the right one but nearer to Kinross the better really.


Have around £2-2.5k but top end would have to be a special one as budget is tight.


thanks and I look forward to getting involved in the Fazer banter once again

well thats it the bike has gone................. sob!
sold to a really good bloke just up the road who I know will enjoy her for many moons to come.
so is robert from dunfermline shows up be gentle, for the first while anyway
I will be hanging about in the background like a forgotten kipper under the sideboard and who know may even get another Fazer next year when the house is sorted
Cheers for now
