They weren't seated to the cylinder head, took them off placed them back on and gave them a knock with my hand and the went in further.

One thing I spotted in the video, is the small hose folded over on the r/h side of the radiator. That pipe I believe is part of the carb warming system. Whith that disconnected you will potentially get carb icing in the winter. [/quote] I found that this was done as it's not needed, see here http://www.cartestsoftware.com/fz1/carbcoolantbypass.html

That is one of the bushs that the exup rotates on. Mostly likely the one in the Collector box
After reading the exup service guide again (more carefully) I see that the there is a bush that can come out fromt the collector box as you say. I think I was thrown as the first time I had it apart it stayed in place. Well guess I'll be opening it back up again in the morning.

Hi thanks, the sound is now sorted (downpipes weren't seated correctly).
I did wonder about the folded over hose and tbh didn't notice the 2 jubilee clips but plan is to change the hoses for silicone ones anyway as they are old now, will have a look at the carbs tomorrow to see what's been done on that end. Thanks

This gets weirder, the bushing is in place in the exup valve but this one is exactly the same.

I'm pretty sure, but I'll take it off again to be certain. Although I remember trying to see if it fitted on before I put it all back together

That's what I suspected but I found this whole the exup was still in pieces and all the exup parts were there

After putting it back I found this spacer thingy, I know I haven't removed anything that it's come from, maybe it just came loose and fell when I was doing the exhaust, any ideas where it's from? It's about 16mm long

it is right but just removing the bottom bolt on the rad give that few mm needed.
All back to together now and running spot on 😁. Thanks guys, I've got a lot to learn now after upgrading to the big boy Fazer 😋

Ummm maybe I'm doing something wrong as I haven't had to remove the radiator. Just loosened it a little to give me a little bit more room, should be back together soon and I can try it

Thanks I'll have a check. I've had a look at helmet cam video and can't hear it so I'm thinking it must have happened this morning. Think I may have just worried myself by reading all the cam chain tensioner stories on here.
I'll be back soon hopefully with good news

Just bought a Fazer thou a few days ago and Rosen it home 200 miles no problems and was great. Problem now is it has developed a noise today when I started it, I had taken off the downpipes to clean and serviced the exup then started it and I can hear this ticking noise, is it the cam chain? Here's a video of the noise https://youtu.be/wboZCbrKONA

Yep as celticdog said, got them on my 2003.

Yeah I saw the overlapping type and someone on here had made their own, which I hoped to do from the original ones but unfortunately the inner diameter of the originals is too large.
I have no idea about welding but I'm guessing from your response it will be ok to have them welded even though they have broken in half and have a few cracks

I bought a used set of s/s downpipes for my fzs600 and now noticied that the flanges have had welds put in previously and now have further cracks in them from being overtightened, unfortunately one has already snapped off.
Anyone know of any solution? can it be welded?
I've tried finding flanges in 2 parts that can be joined but no luck for the size and can't find a company to make any yet.

I've seen some plastidip spray on eBay and was wondering if anyone has any experience of using them? I was thinking of using it on my forks and swing arm.

I refurbed mine a while ago and didn't have any issues getting them off after 2 weeks of daily spraying with wd40, although mine doesn't get used in the wet. Also I reused the gaskets and didn't have any issues.
They lasted 2 more years but now I have stainless and new gaskets.

Bought mine last year and it was £2.92 for the kit which was nut and washer.

Mines a 2003 and the nut started to loosen so I changed it for the upgraded one.
By the way Yamaha dealer is cheaper than eBay for it.
