FZS600 Fazer / indicator flashing fast
« on: 11 March 2013, 04:22:26 pm »
ok gurus, i have flush fit front indicators, fitted when i bought the bike. front right bulb blew and i couldnt find a direct replacement, its a 12v 23/8w it has staggerd baynets and they are not 180 degrees apart, if that makes sense. i cant find them anywhere i fitted a small 12v 10w orange indicator bulb that works for about 3 flashes then both front and back flash fast??? if i put hazards on they all flash normal, left hand indcators flash ok, when i moved the lamp to the other side it happened there so definatly the bulb. i know its the bulb but cannot find one??? :o

FZS600 Fazer / BRAKES!!!
« on: 05 March 2013, 09:19:17 am »
Morning guys and girls, firstly i need to appologise to the london foccers as couldnt make sunday due to the above :'(
 
i recently changed my front brake lines ( braided ) and piston seals, after cleaning my rear brake pistons and found they needed changing i thought i would look at the front and clean them up. on piston would not retract, i could get it to push out but really struggled to push it back in. I removed the piston cleaned everything thouroughly and yet it still is ALMOST impossible to push all the way home. it will go passed the dust seal but when it gets to the oil seal stops. so inspected again and the only thing i can see is the seal looks as if it is not seated properly but it is very hard to tell. removed seal and reseated but still looks the same as if back edge is slightly raised. anyway new seal ordered, but has anyone had this before. i have renewed master cylinder seals and all other pistons move freely.
also how much pressure would you expect to use to push the piston back?????
 
thanks in advance
