For sale is the brilliant Nitron NTR R2 shock for the Gen2 Fazer, will fit all 2006 to 2014 FZ1n and FZ1s models. It is the product they recommend for fast road and track day use. This is the link to the product on Nitron's website;
http://www.nitron.co.uk/catalogue_item.php?catID=12778&prodID=74517
It cost me a whopping £618 (£515 plus VAT) bought new direct from Nitron ! I fitted it to my 2009 FZ1 and it absolutely transforms the bike ! Each click of adjustment can genuinely be felt, and in addition to separately adjustable preload, rebound damping and compression damping, the shock length and therefore rear ride-height can be altered. The shock length is currently adjusted (by a lock but on the bottom end so easy to change) to give an approx 20mm increase in rear ride height which gives sharper and sweeter turn in and improved ground clearance. The included instruction manual gives you all the options and, err instructions on how to adjust everything.
The shock was only fitted for two touring trips and a few Sunday blasts and is in exceptional condition, virtually as new ! The Nitron build quality is second to none, if I didn't need the money it would be going on the living room wall as a piece of art !! The shock comes with instruction manual, original box and packaging, the mounting bracket specific to the FZ1 (to mount the remote adjuster).
I absolutely loved the way the FZ1 handles with this shock fitted, plush but supple and really well controlled. Unfortunatley, my FZ1 has had to make way for a more comfy steed (age is a cruel thing......), so grab yourself a bargain !!!
The price is £350 plus postage, which I will do at £14 to UK Mainland addresses, or you can collect from Rotherhsm, South Yorkshire. If you need any further info, please PM or email me at mikeyfzs1@googlemail.com
Cheers, Mike

Eyup, I have for sale the ultimate touring screen set-up for the FZ1s (2006 model onwards) – it's the excellent Givi touring screen, fitted with the MRA "X-Screen" adjustable screen blade. Together these provide superb wind / weather protection, being significantly higher and wider than the stock screen, and the X-Screen can of course be adjusted through many different height and tilt settings to give a brilliant buffet-free ride, even at inexcusable European speeds !!
 
I’m 6’2” and it worked spot-on for me with the X-Screen set about half-way up, so I’m sure there’s a setting to please riders of pretty much any height / size ! (Unless “Jaws” from the Bond films rides and FZ1s……….)

It’s all in excellent condition having only been fitted for one foreign touring trip, my FZ1s is now unfortunately sold hence the sale. Cost new was £64 (Givi) + £63 (X-Screen) plus postage, I’m asking £75 plus UK mainland postage, which I’ll do for £15 (it’s light but the box is huge !!).

Please get in touch by p.m. via the forum, then we can exchange email addresses, etc, to sort out the details. I've hopefully attached a picture to this post (although it's not showing up in the post "preview" ?) but if not I can email photo as required.

Cheers,

Bump ! Price reduced to £4100 ! Come on ladies and gentlemen - it's a cracker !!!!

It is with a heavy heart that I am selling the best bike I’ve ever owned - my gorgeous ’59 plate black/grey FZ1s. I’m nudging 50 and although the FZ1s is a very comfy bike by most standards I have arthritis in my knees and also lower back problems, which mean I find the FZ1s too uncomfortable on longer journeys, so I have decided to go down the “adventure” bike route when I have sold it – boo hoo ! Whatever I get will be slower and won’t handle as brilliantly as the FZ1s, but that’s the decision I’m faced with unfortunately.

So………..I was wondering if any of you fine people might be interested in buying my FZ1s ? It has just under 18K miles on the clock, and has a few choice extras fitted, including a Leo Vinci low level silencer (looks and sounds amazing, weighs very little !), Evotech tail tidy and exhaust hanger, colour-matched belly-pan, Ivan’s FCE (fuel cut eliminator), LUST Racing crash mushrooms, double-bubble screen, aftermarket black “shorty” adjustable brake and clutch levers, HEL braided front brake lines, aftermarket “Armstrong” wavey front discs, and a Datatag kit fitted. I have also had the bars, bar risers and heel guards powder-coated satin black. All the standard bits (eg : exhaust, levers, etc) are present and correct and will go with the bike if needed.

I’ve owned the bike almost three years, it has one previous owner and is in beautiful condition throughout and has never seen any road salt so the fasteners, engine paint, etc, are in excellent condition. It has had a recent new chain and sprockets, new front brake pads and (brilliant !) Metzeller Z8 Interact tyres fitted 1K miles ago, so loads of life in them yet ! It has dealer service history up to 7K miles (when I bought it), and since then I have meticulously serviced it myself every Spring (even though it has not reached 6K miles each year I still did an oil/filter change every 12 months), including the last service in April this year, when I changed all the fluids, filters, put in new spark plugs and balanced the throttle bodies. So it needs for nothing – just ride it into the sunset !!

It’s for sale at £4250, viewing is welcome and encouraged – it’s in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. Please pm me or email me on mike.fletcher@arup.com (my work email), or by all means call me on 07949 489438.

I’ll take some photos tonight and (try to !) add them to this post tomorrow.

Cheers, Mike

Great, thanks guys, tracking down a set on FleaBay has been a nightmare as they only seem to come up in ones ! Cheers, Mike

Hi, can check which models the discs fit from this site;

They won't fit the 98 - 2003 Fazer 600 though I'm afraid, cheers, Mike

Hi there, I am looking for a full set of standard (UK spec) indicators for my 2009 FZ1s.

Hi there,
 
I have a stainless oval SIMMI Performance end can (road legal with removable baffle) with stainless hanging strap and link pipe for the Gen 1 FZS1000. If it's of interest you can have it for £100 inc UK mainland postage ? Irt's in excellent condition. (Reason for sale is that I now have a Gen 2.)
