For Sale & Wanted / FZS1000 Kais lowering shock and dogbones.£280
« on: 04 August 2018, 03:11:24 pm »
Kais shock and dog bones from a 2004 Fazer 1000 with less than 10,000 miles.


I bought the bike from a chap at work who had the shock made for his 5’6” stature but found it just too low for me so here it is for sale.It was a quality ride and has multiple adjustment for spring preload,damping and compression.


Price is £280 and includes the dogbones and mainland postage.

Hi I’m selling my gen 1 Fazer 1000.Its a late 2004 bike in silver with just under 11000 miles,MOT until April 2019,wants for nothing.Its taxed and insured so if you want to view bring your lid and I’ll take you out for a road test.

I know the previous owner who had it from new as a pre reg so know it’s complete history.He had a Meta alarm fitted from new and had Kais suspension to suit his 5’6” height,I put the factory dogbones back on when I bought it but have the lowered ones and will re-fit them if required.


All the consumables are good,meaty tyres,brake pads have loads left and chain & sprockets are good.


It has a Givi rack and monokey top box,hugger,stainless radiator guard,crash bungs (right one is scratched),Fuel stainless end can and a Kais lowered remote reservoir shock.It will come with the original end can,the original alloy grab handles and the lowering dog bones.


It starts on the button every time,all the gears are there with no jumping and the clutch is light and positive.The engine pulls strongly from low down and right through to the crazy zone with a willful hand.


The bad bits...has had a low speed drop and has a cracked and scraped fairing and scraped bar end,not recorded.It has a dent in the tank from a lump of wood falling on it in the garage.Some of the alloy cycle parts like the alloy pillion footrest hangers have a bit of corrosion.

£1750 ovno,call John on 07 and then 871840270 thanks.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Metzeler M3 £120 a pair at M & P

Spotted these Metzeler M3’s on offer but not having had them before on any bike I wondered if anyone has had them on a Fazer 1000 and were they any good?


Also those sizes don’t tally exactly with the specs I have in my book,it’s the last numbers that don’t match (61w & 73w),would they fit ?


No track days or racing here,generally plodding with the odd thrash.

Introduction / Hi from Prescot
« on: 29 March 2018, 04:11:53 pm »
Hi all,next week I'll be picking up a 2004 fazer 1000.It's been sat in a garage for at least 4 years but it's a one owner bike with about 10,000 miles on so I'm touching wood and hoping it'll be an easy job to get back on the road. :rollin


He says it's a carbs bike so that'll take me back a bit cleaning them up  :rolleyes    and I think probably a new battery and tyres too.Have I missed anything?


Can't wait to get her running,I ride an NC750X DCT at the mo and while the 80mpg is great and the helmet swallowing tank is genius I could use a good scare from a bike again. :woot :eek :eek
