For Sale & Wanted / Brand New TFT Dash for sale SOLD!
« on: 14 April 2020, 08:44:30 am »
Hi Guys, I have a brand new never been fitted and still in the original box TFT Dash from Danny's TFT Dash Project for a Gen 1 Fazer 1000.


This is a replacement for my original, but before it arrived, I sold my bike, therefore it is surplus to requirements. I'll take £200 for it with free courier delivery (UK only) and it is fully supported by Danny's TFT Dash Project.


Please IM me if you're interested.


Cheers
Geo

For Sale & Wanted / Brand New TFT Dash (from Danny) £200 SOLD!
« on: 06 March 2020, 05:24:50 pm »
Hi Guys,
I have a brand new, never been fitted TFT Dash from Danny. My original had a tiny glitch which Danny said he'd fix, meantime, he sent me a replacement, fair play to the guy and greatest respect.
The replacement is brand new and has never been fitted to a bike, I spoke to Danny and he said he has no problem with me selling the replacement TFT Dash.
Reason for selling; while all this was going on, I PXed my Fazer against a 900 Tracer, leaving me with this TFT Dash and no bike to fit it to.
I'll take £200 and I'll post it for free.
If you want to collect, I'm in Wolverhampton.
Cheers all.

Thanks for your feedback Kenyun, I had my reasons.
I cracked the fairing and bought a replacement, but before I fitted it, I thought I'd like to see it as a naked bike, so I converted it and I liked it (as I'm sure many do), so I left it as a streetfighter, although it's not everybody's cup of tea, but it's my bike and I can do what I want with it so I don't really care what anybody else thinks.
In your opinion, I may have spoilt it (as many traditionalists will agree), but I'm not sure everyone will.
I've kept all the original parts so it could be returned to stock at anytime.

Oh and it comes with a trickle charger!

I have my beloved silver Gen 1 FZ1 for sale. I've streetfightered it purely as a project and it's all done and finished.

I still have all the original parts including the clocks original and replacement fairings, end can etc, if you want to change it back.
What I've done:
Fitted a new TFT screen and a fabricated a bracket for it
New twin headlights
Tail tidy, looks massively better.
LED progressive indicators
Renthal bars
bar-end mirrors
Serious tidying up of the wiring so you can't see it
Removed fairing, infill panels and brackets.
A1 end can sounds great and passed the last MOT with it (no advisories).
Looks awesome and with the reduced weight, the handling is awesome.

About the bike, it's a 5FLV with 18338 genuine miles at the last MOT, it's only done a couple of hundred since.

It has an MOT until 12 June, but it is currently SORNED as I use my TDM in the winter, I'll put 12 months MOT on it.
Tyres are both good. The bike itself is very tidy and clean.
The bike lives with me in Wolverhampton.

I've not tried it on the road yet as my bike is SORNed for the winter. I did do the S/W update and I like what you've done with the indictators and the temperature units, much better - thank you.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: TFT Dash for the Fazer 1000 / FZ1
« on: 07 November 2019, 10:35:11 am »
Great S/W update Danny, look forward to installing over the weekend.

Trouble is that my Fazer is now SORNed for the winter as it's naked and not much good in the shitty weather; I have a TDM for that :)

A few people at work noticed the TFT dash on the bike before I SORNed it and it has received nothing but positive comments, most were stunned that this was even possible.

An idea for a project update, I know rear view cams are already available, but would it be possible to integrate an image from a wide angle rear view camera onto the TFT screen maybe on the top or bottom half with the other half still showing basic info (speed, revs, warning lights and fuel level) so I can get rid of my bar end mirrors or is this something that is not feasible?

Just a thought.

The FZ1 Gen 1 headlights are on another level compared to the FZ600, you wouldn't believe it was the same bike :)


I have two fairings, both are silver tech S3, one is OEM but has damage that is repairable, the other is a patten fibre glass fairing that is brand new.


The OEM fairing came off this bike:

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / TFT Dash - First Ride
« on: 22 October 2019, 08:54:00 am »
I took the plunge and bought the first TFT dash from Danny.

Here is what I found:

Hardware
  • The TFT screen and bezel has a decent build quality.
  • It was extremely easy to fit (three bolts and plug, find a place for the two button control and thermo sensor); it was especially easy for me as my bike is a streetfighter and has no fairing.
  • I mounted the two button control on the rearward side of the brake fluid reservoir with the supplied 3M double sided sticky patch, it looks like it's meant to be there.
  • I mounted the thermo sensor on the bottom edge of the screen bezel as I have no fairing.
Operation
  • As Danny says, it is plug and play, the only thing you need to do before use is set the mileage on the odometer.
  • The display is clear and easy to read with the option of several colour themes (my favourite is the yellow on black).
  • The menu is easy to access and operate with the two button control.
  • There are some minor software tweaks required (gear indicator not always displaying the correct gear). Danny is currently working on this and an update should be available shortly.
Opinion
It is a great improvement on the original clocks, it displays a lot more information than the original clocks and is customisable. The display is big and bold and easy to read and is a genuine head-turner.

Thank you Danny for all your hard work.

Many years ago, I had a lovely FZS600 that I used to commute between Wolverhampton and Nottingham a couple of time a week. The one thing I hated were the poor lights, especially o the A38 in the winter.

I did a bit of research and found that a Gen 1 Fazer 1000 subframe would fit the 600, a little more research, I found the Gen 1 Fazer headlights and fairing and infill panels would fit straight on. The only thing I had to tinker with was the wiring loom for the lights, but it only took an hour of trial and error before I had fully working headlights from a 1000 on my 600.

If anyone is interested in doing this, I have all the components from a Gen 1 Fazer 1000 to do the conversion except for the LH infill panel and mirrors.

Front Subframe
Fairing
Headlights
Screen
RH Infill Panel
No mirrors or LH Infill Panel

£300

Yeah, that's good for me, they are OEM for the Gen 1 Fazer so if that's what you've got, they'll fit. I'll PM details when I get home

For Sale & Wanted / Gen 1 FZS1 Stock End Can
« on: 05 October 2019, 02:20:20 pm »
Unmarked original exhaust end can from my Gen 1 Fazer 1000 with clamp.


It's pretty much unmarked. If you need a replacement or need one to get through an MOT, it will just slip straight on.


Not sure how much to ask, so I'll go a tentative £30, but open to offers.


It's in Wolverhampton for collection.
