Ok thanks guys, I will probably leave the service until after the trip. Yup I agree about the tyre, will be putting a new one on there before I go. Cheers

FZ6 / Fazer / 12K Mile Service and Windscreen Question

« on: 07 June 2018, 12:30:42 pm »

Hey Guys,
My 2007 S2 currently has 10,500 miles on it. I am going on a trip around europe in July which I believe will be 2000+ miles. Do you think I should have the service done now before the trip or when I get back? I believe the12K service is when the valves are adjusted? Has anybody experienced any reliability issues after having this work done? At the moment it's a very reliable bike, I don't want to mess with it if it will have negative affects on the reliability.
Also, screens. I know this has been asked a thousand times but the wind buffeting is pretty bad at my head, something I would like to try and rectify before the trip. I find at my height, 5' 10", the screen just directs the wind straight at my face which eventually makes my neck ache and means I can't see for dead flys within minutes. The general consensus seems to be double bubble screen is better than touring? Has anyone tried a clip on spoiler on the standard screen?
Thanks.

So I've had it a couple of weeks now, very happy with it. Done a couple of hundred miles on it, and arranged to go on a trip down to Devon with some mates next Month.

I've fitted an oxford optimiser, a USB port for my phone, Oxford heated grips and I fitted a healtech GIpro Gear indicator. The gear indicator was a bit of a nightmare but now its fitted works lovely, definitely is not plug and play on ABS model bikes!

Hello all,

My name is Adam and I have just purchased a 2007 FZ6 S2 ABS in Lava Red. I'm 28 and passed my MOD2 test on Thursday last week, so this is my first 'Big Bike'

Very excited to pick it up on Saturday and look forward to using this forum to learn more about the bike!

Cheers,

Adam
