Glad the problem seems to have resolved, look forward to a follow up report once your healed and getting to use the bike a bit more, I was down Portpatrick way on Sunday about 320 miles and its a been great. Don't worry about not hanging about, I don't think Mike was expecting it, we were all just loitering and drinking Joe's fine coffee. Sorry to hear of the passing too, condolences. Hopefully see you on the road some time, as I'm not far from the ferry. 30

Well been a good day, my thou has joined the ivanised ranks.
Massive thanks to Mike, sorted the kit first thing then took the time to do some suspension tweeks, can't wait to get out on the bike and do some miles with the new setup. Also massive thanks to Joe, the host with the most. Nice to meet Jim and Dave too, we all spend most of the day together talking. 33

Devilsym does the R6 shock but its the FZS1000 he does this for. Kebab19 does the FZS600 R6 shock, but i am not sure if anyone has a mod for the FZ6.. Different bike.
The emmulators linked will be for FZS600 so again will not work on an FZ6 i'd imagine. 35

Looks like rain all day tomorrow in Scotland, i'm in Edinburgh and not looking forward to the commute.
Do you have stops planned? Edinburgh is a hot spot for theft just now, if you are stopping here or close by then please bring security, they are targeting guest house and foreign bikes. If you are heading along the A84 passed Tyndrum there is a massive police presence there now, stick to all 30's and keep the eyes peeled. Enjoy, and hope the weather is kind. 38
General / Re: Insurance or accept cash to repair it myself?« on: 28 June 2017, 02:13:21 pm »
So your getting £1400 and its not written off? Well done if that's the case.
My 99 fzs600 was knocked over by a driver while stationary in a car park, she asked about paying the damage. I gave her a list of what was needed, was only about £400, she decided to go via insurance, which i found weird but i was getting bike fixed, so happy. Well the insurance ended up writting the bike off, i was offered £1600 or £1278 and keep the bike, thought i'd won a watch. Went to Europe, repaired the bike and got a shed.... Only now do i realise how its not all a plain as you think. I have to declare the accident, ok as a non fault but it has to be declared and this has affected my insurance for both bike and other policies, this could be bad luck on my part or the true picture. I was added to my Partners brothers van insurance, he asked all my details and i had to supply the claim info, he said with out the claim his policy went up £30 a year... with the claim it was up £80 a year. Just because it all looks well just now, it could change the future. 39

Thanks guys
I am a total newbie and not a great man on the spanners so this will more than likely be a job for a mechanic but i know that some will ask for a OEM replacement as best option, but i want the options so i can take it to the man. I did look at the All Ball Bearings ones on Wemoto too, but got Wheel Bearings from Marksman and all was great with fast dispatch and i know a few others use them too. Will have a think... 47
Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / FZS1000 Head Bearings« on: 06 April 2017, 05:12:44 pm »
So while doing the forks i have noticed the head bearings are notchy, quite bad, so need new. Now when i look at the Yamaha parts its about £100.
I have seen the Marksman kit [size=78%]http://shop.marksman-ind.com/yamaha-fz1-2001---05-headrace--steering-kits-23350-p.asp[/size], from what i read the tapered bearings are better was will last longer, if i buy the marksman kit will i need anything else for the job? Better to replace any wee cheap parts while in there is they are perishable. Seen this topic [/size][size=78%]http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,7518.0.html[/size] and it has me a bit worried on that the parts will all fit fine? There is a rubber washer mentioned, any idea on part number? 48

Hi Mike,
Emailed you back, was on a weeks holiday in Gran Canaria, hopefully i'm one of the 7 or you can squeeze me in. Edinburgh would be preferential but easy do Glasgow too. 49
