Finally got the equivilient of the MOT today and went for a ride the 1st one since december since i packed her up. 28

[size=78%]The spotlights are just ebay ones, U5 125w with flee slitch[/size] £11.99. I just screwed them to the rad using the original bolt holes. I bought them to be seen , lets say lithuanian drivers aren't the best I just wired them up to the original side light switch. 29

Thanks His Dudeness !!
I wish i had the wheels painted blue, i like the gunmetal grey certainly a better finish than the std yamaha black ones, but i think blue wheels would have had a bigger impact against the matt silver. I paid just 80€ for the work and 38€ for the silver and grey paint, cheap as chips. Just got to register it now!! 30

As it stands at the minute, back half of belly pan ive found a way but the front half still thinking how to do itBig big thanks to Mtread who went out of his way to help me, what a ti top foccer you really are. just waiting for my custom "el diablo" graphics for the tank and some yamaha ones for the bellypan I might have to ditch the "Bike It Raptor 2" headlight/fairing which i had painted in satin matt silver, it didnt pass the TA (MOT) so either i try bribe the the tester which is possible here in lithuania for a bottle of anything .....or junk the whole thing and get a honda hornet headlight plus fairing.... i know i know but i need to ride it NOW!! Thank you 31

Just thought i'd share that i bought these rear caliper seals, fitted properly no problems, cheap as chips, ok original yamaha is of course where its at, but for someone looking to replace their seals without the feeling of getting gang raped for £26 for 4 bits of rubber this is where it's at.
I can say that i would definately buy them again, even if they last a year they are still worth every penny. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/162232541418 34

Is this the front or rear brake seals? That was a different foccer i was just subscribed to that thread, i think mine will be ok.... hopefully!! Famous last words. https://imgur.com/a/Z8DGJIO 36

Thanks for the replies, its now back to bare metal.
Hopefully everything will be ok. 45

Quick question, ive had my wheels painted the part where the disc mounts does it have to be bare metal or will the painted surface be ok to mount the disc onto?

Thanks mtread for all the pics and dimentions of everything i really appreciate the length you have gone to to help me out, its kind people like you that make this a great site
Hmmm there looks like quite a bit of difference with your pics and the pics i found, yours has better stronger mounting plates at the front, not sure im going to be able to replicate that front mount without quite a bit of money thrown at it.Maybe it was a bad idea to buy this bellypan off ebay without proper mounting brackets? I thought about "p clips" on the bottom (back) with a rubber isolating spacer and a metal bracket at the front but i suppose that isn't going to workbugger 47
FZS600 Fazer / Re: bellypan mounting brackets« on: 30 April 2019, 08:19:33 am »Still wondering in this story But I will try to understand I think it's pretty straightforward, so i bought a copy TCS original Yamaha belly pan pan from Poland that was supplied with no mounting brackets, and I was stuck as to how it fixed on the bike. Low and behold some kind foccer took some pictures of his that he was selling a few years back so I screenshotted them to give someone else an idea if they decided to buy the same one. Looking at the bottom frame mounts there's not many things to buy on ebay like that so I opted for 'P Clips' and will use rubber damping spacers so it doesn't vibrate. The top ones can be made out of 2bits of steel flat bar 48

personally speaking having owned a few japanese bikes and cars quality is better than german, i think that the O.E. yam ones will be the best but at this time £26 for a set of 4 bits of rubber, is well ludicrous.I may regret buying non genuine but the kids need a new trampoline

FZS600 Fazer / Re: Streetfazer« on: 25 April 2019, 09:08:37 pm »Powerhouse UK do a kit which includes the seals if you slip the caliper like you have.I saw that kit, my fazer has only 1 central caliper o ring and the bleed nipples are good to go as are the rubber boots so i'll take a chance on the one i bought, it may be good, it may be bad lets see.the bike was £900 so i'm not gonna throw a lot of money at it, if it leaks then i'll take another path I might be back soon advising not to buy brand x seals cos there shit .... time will tellThanks for you input though it's always good to see something from the otherside of the fence 50
FZS600 Fazer / Re: Streetfazer« on: 25 April 2019, 08:59:44 pm »Save the small o ring that goes between the two halves of the caliper The new seal kit won't have that. Sanding the piston could give you problems in the future. If you sand away the protective coating it might cause the piston to rust moreFrom the picture of the dirty piston most of the dirty haze cleaned up with a rag, i only lighty sanded it under the tap, yep kept that o ring.although i may source another one, it's all to do with what type of rubber it is, i found this out when my gasgas 250 enduro bike must have "nitrile" o rings for the exhaust.There's rubber and rubber But thanks if it dies in a year then i'll buy a blue spot |
