FZS600 Fazer / Re: Grinding noise/feeling around 6000rpm
« on: 08 May 2013, 08:40:07 am »
A long shot, but you don't happen to have a Bridgestone BT021 on the front do you?
It's just that they make a weird abrasive noise on the FZS600 at certain speeds.


I have a BT021 on my front and get the weird sound at some speeds, it has been doing my head in as to what it might be, i have changed the wheel bearings and fork seals (one of the dust seals needed doing anyway so whilst i had the forks off i replaced all the seals) and still get the weird noise.
never thought it would be the tyre but you might be right!
I think it sounds worse cos it amplifies the sound through the fairing

FZS600 Fazer / Re: Sheared a bolt.
« on: 07 March 2013, 09:47:47 am »
In the past I have drilled holes down throught the bolts prior to attempting to undo them as it is easier to centre the drill in the hex hole than trying to centre it on a sheared bolt.

Very good idea that!

Why use a sat nav?
I don't use one if I take the wrong turning I just carry on and look for sign posts that are going to take me in the right direction to where I want to go (if your on a rideout it's all part the fun) I suppose I am old school lol, the problem with sat navs is you end up relying on them and don't learn anything about what route you have taken!

Did'nt mcn quote this about the FZS600 :- But it does look kinda 80s disco from some angles and it's also a bit greedy on fuel.

Just bought a 2001 fazer 600 after being away from riding for four years!
I bought it as a commuter bike and I am quite impressed with it, not sure about the handlebar height though, I have ordered a renthal 758 handlebar so hope it's better.

Nice to be back on a bike, my last bike was a ZX9R ninja

Cheers Andy
