Hi ,
 I was thinking of selling my beloved 600 boxeye-fazer , its Red and Black colour scheme  61 800 thousand miles its had loads spent on it , serviced, heated grips , renthal 758 , Newish chain and sprockets front one less one for quicker acceleration etc. Its just had an oil and sparked plug / coolent  change last week , body work is good condition, power bronze screens one red, one gold (very blingy) recently new tires , beowolf exhaust. shorty levels , Led spotlights ,  25mm dogbones , Black  Rear Hugger , givi monolock rack and top box......  Loads of receipts of work done parts bought etc ....
 
Mot advisory last time 1 noisy exhaust 
 
Mot till September but it will pass

Bad points engine paint is rubbish needs redoing , and noisy cam chain when first started up but goes away when warm , it has cracked carb rubbers but my mechanic says they are ok ....   

This bike is fantastic never let me down , super quick and reliable ...

The bike is located in Berkshire

Pm me if interested

Looking for £1150

Hi , yea as far as I've read that's right for the 400, but just looking at the light I'd say it's for a 600 and someone's swapped it out...

Hi Ok no worries then . cheers

Hello

The headlight is it the one that both sides come on ? I got a fazer 2000 600 box eye and I heard that the 400 one both sides come on at the same time is this true ?

It looks all right , if its got lots of paperwork etc service , receipts etc , check the cam chain noise , the carbs rubbers , has it reg oil changes etc… mines is the same colour scheme , but 57800 miles and still pulling strong

« on: 11 June 2016, 07:43:56 pm »
Hi


Can you get a tail tidy for a 2000 fazed 600 ? I looked everywhere but came a blank ,


so i guess thats a no !


ta ginger

 Yes I had the same on my rear brake , Piston stuck solid , as other have said , bleed , take the calliper off , and pop the pistons out , ( maybe use the back brake pedal and pop the pistons out this way)> Because my piston was stuck solid , i had to get a piston removal tool then , replace seals, mine was so gunked up …..

 spark plugs just fiddly etc


 brakes not too bad but give them a good clean req because my bake ones sized !!!

Indeed, pics of your oil stained patio, sore thumbs, grazed knuckles, siezed plugs and screwdriver oil fliter removal tool are a must . . .  :evil
+1 for the K&N filter, purely as i'm a tight fisted cnut.


front brakes pads and discs done no sore thumbs or grazed knuckles ………
