I can't speak for any UK tuners offering re-flash for the FZ-1 but I know there's some around. There's a European agent for Ivan's re-flash but it seems they're based in Greece. http://www.ivansperformanceproducts.com/contact.htm

Stainless steel bolts will do just as well ... ... unless you're after lightening your bike and your wallet!

Good news, glad you've found a replacement valve. Plenty of advice available here if you need help fitting and setting it up. Not difficult but a few get their knickers in a twist with it.

Advancing the ignition sharpens up the throttle response at lower rpm. Can't say that it makes any discernible difference to fuel economy.
Many folks got better mpg with Ivan's kit fitted but I suspect this was because the improved throttle response and torque increase below 3-4k rpm encouraged earlier gear shifts and surfing the low-end in a higher gear. Certainly, roll-off, roll-on performance was improved on mine.

Out of curiosity, just done a bit of online research. Fowler's parts fiche shows same part number for EXUP shaft (the actual valve part) 4SV-14821-00 at an eye-watering £445! But you already knew that ... Same part number appears for late 90s FZR1000 Thunderace and the 98 - 01 model R1s, in addition to the Fazer 1000. Try a Google search using the part number. I found this today: https://www.mpricambi.com/request-quote/ May be out of date but worth trying and this is the kind of thing that you'll come across if you're patient and keep looking.

My five pennyworth. Ignition advancers are worth fitting but, in my experience, won't come close to restoring what you've lost from not having a working EXUP. There's no carb mod/tuning solution that will do it, either. Black Widow headers are no different than the stock headers minus EXUP. Your results/opinion may vary ...  Take your time and scour ebay/breakers etc for the EXUP valve components. Early model R1 valves are identical, so search for old R1 exhausts and scavenge what you need from one of them.

My Helmet is an XR1000 I think. If these will fit I’ll take them depending on postage costs.
Hi mate, long time ... hope all's well with you and yours. From what I can find on t'internet, your XR1000 requires CX-1/CX1-V spares, so mine won't fit.  Sorry about that. Please PM, me, though - I have a few other things I'd like to steer your way. Cheers! Mike

In white, never crashed or dropped. No scratches, either. In fact, in good condition all round.
If you like Shoei lids, this one is a good 'un. Quiet and comfortable, good ventilation.
Would be ideal as a spare for the occasional pillion.
£50 plus P&P
PM for details and photos.

The best jacket I've ever worn on a bike for summer riding. Vented ballistic mesh, leather reinforcement to all contact areas ... not that this has ever been tested, you understand. Mine is one of the earlier type shown here: https://www.motorcyclegear.com/street/underwear_visibility_and_misc_/accessories_for_jackets_and_pants/cortech_by_tour_master/gx_air_mesh_motorcycle_jacket.htmlCortech continued to make them with minor style changes over the years and it was ever-popular in the USA. Chest 42", silver-grey/black. Still in very good condition and comes with both liners; one is wind/waterproof, the other is purely thermal. Happy to let it go for £20 plus postage (estimate £12 - £15) just to know that it's still one the road, even if I'm not. PM for more details. Cheers! Mike

More riding gear surplus to requirements as I've nothing to ride but my e-cycle and this is a bit overkill As shown here: https://www.fc-moto.de/en/Revit-Airwave-2-1Mine are the light grey ones, 34" waist, worn about a dozen times, mostly for trips to the MOT centre in Spain. £60 plus postage, which should be around £10. PM with e-mail address if you'd like more info. Cheers! Mike

I had a Multigauge on my Fazer which gave me coolant temp. Even on hot days in Spain, I always thought the coolant temp was lower than I'd expect. During winter/spring rides, temps were around 70C so consistent with what you're seeing in the UK. Suggests that they tend to run slightly cool, or perhaps that the temp sensor isn't located in the area where the coolant is at its hottest.

Hoya mate, hope your doing well
Have you got any pics of the radial master cylinder.
Doing great, thanks. I do have photos but find it awkward to upload direct to the site these days. If you PM me with your e-mail address, I'll send them to you direct. Cheers! Mike

Hi Mike,
Just wondering if the radial MC would/could fit my 2001 FJR1300. Uses same Blue Spot calipers - FA 252 HH pads etc
No big deal if you don't know but you seem to know most things.....
Whale
Hi Whale I don't know much these days but I'm confident that it will work on your FJR 1300. PM me with your e-mail address and I'll get back to you with photos. Cheers! Mike
