Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: How much is your FZS 1000 worth?
« on: 03 January 2019, 10:04:51 am »
Paid £1500 for this in November. It’s immaculate. 44k and came with a s1000rr rear shock that I’m yet to fit





I don’t think I’ll ever sell it  :)

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Fitting Ivan’s slip on kit, who does it now ?
« on: 05 November 2018, 01:48:01 pm »
So I contacted my local bike tuner and dyno guy, he said he’s done a few and that it would be £295 to fit and set up on dyno, and that it might be an extra £20 if the supplied jets are wrong ...


I thought he can’t know what he’s on about as everything is correct with the slip on kit to my knowledge?!


Anyway I figured this was extortionate and I’d probably be better off doing it myself and saving £300 lol. But watched a vid on YouTube and it does look pretty bloody fiddly and drawn out...


So falcon is not fitting any more, anyone else ?

Best tyres I’ve had are the angel st. I let my mate have a go of my bike and he got them fitted to his srad 750 a month later as he was so impressed

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / S1000rr shock question
« on: 04 November 2018, 09:51:34 am »
just got my new (to me) 2004 fazer 1k home. It’s come with a few bits one of which is the beemer shock. It has 2 modified top bushes ready to be fitted, but my question is what’s the procedure for drilling out the bottom hole on the fork ? Can I do this with a hand drill ? Don’t want to bugger it up

Thanks mate


Im expecting a very different power delivery. The mt09 was absolutely mental. Very intense power delivery from nothing in any gear. Would wheely for fun at 90mph in 3rd or 4th if you just rolled off and back on the throttle. Mates r1 and gsxr750 has a job catching it out of bends on short twisty roads due to the barking mad midrange.
I think this bike will have slightly smoother power in the low end building to a more intense pull in the top end ...


Whatever it brings, I can’t wait to get back on the road after a summer of no bike

so I’m the proud new owner of a stock 2004 thou with 44k up it  :)


This will be my second bike after passing my test in 2016. First bike was a my09 tracer that I did 13k on in 18 months


I’m expecting a totally different experience with this older inline 4, with no abs or traction control, so I’m going to have to learn to respect the power and the brakes very quickly  :eek


I pick her up next Saturday  :lol
