Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Exhaust removal advice
« on: 10 February 2018, 10:03:51 pm »
I want to remove the exhaust system on my 2005 Fazer 1000 so I can paint the collector area and give the front of the motor a good clean. Can anyone give me some advice on undertaking this job. I know I will have to remove the rad, Its just the removal of the exhaust I am not sure about, especially the EXUP and disconnecting it as I have never done this before. Any advice gratefully received...thanks David.

Due to an old injury coming back to haunt me it seems I am going to have to re think my favorite pastime (read obsession) and sell my beautiful Fazer 1000. Its a 2005 and in just this side of new condition. The tyres Conti Road Attacks are as new as are the chain and sprockets. Braided lines and Pipe Werx titanium can and link pipe which sound ace. The mileage is 7534k and it runs and sounds superb. The bike was Ivanised this summer by the man himself Mike so it was done properly and the EXUP valve serviced and is working perfect. The bike also has a Maxton RT10 which absolutely transformed the handling, this will come with the bike if full or near to asking price is met, otherwise the standard as new unit will go back on. If you need any information on the condition of the bike ask Mike he said it was the best he had seen. I am asking £3500 without shock and £3750 with. I know there are cheaper Fazers out there but this one is mint and very well sorted. The bike is located near Stockport I will put some better pics on when it stops raining...thanks David.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / What an absolute b---tard
« on: 15 April 2016, 08:50:01 pm »
Had an unfortunate accident in the garage...due to an old injury my right leg decided it was a good time to let go. The bike went over and smashed into the side of the garage wall. The fairing has been marked and has a gauge in it, mirror is buggered, screen smashed, grab handle is totally goosed and the previously mint tank isn't as mint as it was. Can anyone recommend a really good motorbike painter who could do a top job on the fairing and tank. I live in the Northwest, Stockport area but don't mind travelling a bit if its worth it. Any help greatfully received. Now I am gonna go down the pub and drown my sorrows, thanks David.

General / Recording TV programs
« on: 30 January 2016, 09:19:30 pm »
This has been bugging me for ages. I would like to record the re-runs of Top of the Pops on BBC4. I was thinking of buying a DVD recorder and connecting the recorder to the sky box via a scart lead and trying it that way. I know I will probably have to be watching the program whilst I record it but that's ok. Are there any gurus out there who can maybe advise me if this is possible and if not is there anyway I can record and keep. If it is possible to record using a DVD recorder what make kind of recorder would be suitable...I have no idea. Thanks...any advice much appreciated.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Advice please
« on: 16 November 2015, 01:53:24 pm »
I have a 2005 Fazer 1000. The question query I have is, my right leg is goosed meaning I cant bend it as much as my left...this down to an accident I had when I was eighteen many, many years ago. I love the seat on my Fazer the looks and comfort. I have thought of having my seat modified so I am sitting slightly higher thus not having to bend my knee as much but I really don't want to do this as said I like the seat as it is. I have been using lowered foot rests which do give me more leg room and actually work but...I loose so much ground clearance its a real problem on tighter bends and roundabouts. Is there any way I could get more ground clearance, would changing the suspension arms for shorter ones maybe achieve this. I am going to purchase a Nitron shock next season which I have been told are adjustable for ground clearance. I absolutely love my Fazer...it fits, but the pain is quite intolerable on longer runs, any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again David.

For Sale & Wanted / Fazer 1000 wanted

Hi not been on in a while, unfortunately had to sell my beloved Mk1 Fazer 1000 to pay for a divorce. I am now searching for a replacement, will consider any colour, mileage preferably between 10 and 20k but must be very clean...preferably mint. Cash is waiting for the right bike. I got up at five this morning to go and view a bike in Scotland with a view to buying, the way it had been described made this a bit of a formality I was gonna have it. So get five miles outside Carlisle from Manchester to receive a text saying he had changed his mind, he wasn't selling...and was very sorry. I wasn't best pleased really...so the search goes on. My mob number is 07930 614614 kind regards David.

Introduction / New Fazer Owner
« on: 25 June 2013, 09:28:15 am »
Hello everyone, I picked up my Gen 1 Fazer 1000 last week. Its the fast Blue one on an 03, it was toilet seat standard brake lines, exhaust everything. One owner from new, 9000 miles just how I like em. I sold my Hayabusa which I said I never would but I decided I needed a change freshen things up a bit. All I have done to it up to now is replace the exhaust with a Pipewerx can and link pipe which looks great and sounds much, much nicer and the quality for the money is amazing. I also have a Yamaha TRX850 twin which is good fun and sounds brilliant, its a nice alternative to the four cylinder thing once in a while. I live in a place called Marple just outside Stockport which is very handy for some excellent welsh roads. I must admit I am really intrigued about this Ivanising thing, so much so I emailed him to put my name down for one. Anyway it looks like a super forum and I am looking forward to getting to know the folks and I know I will need advice every now and then, thanks again David.
