Couple of Fazer Questions

[Lez72]

I was giving my FZS1000 its winter deep clean and noticed a couple of things so was just wondering !!! its a Gen 1 2002 model by the way.
 
Questions are 1) Should the rear brake caliper have a protective dust cover on its underside that stops all the crap getting up into the caliper ? I have had numerous bikes before that have had one.
 
2) On the inside of the rear footrest hangers there is a threaded bolt hole which looks to have had something fitted to them at some point as there is a 'bolt head' mark where i presume something once resided. What was it that was fitted or am i misreading something. It looks like an ideal place for some bungee hooks or something similar but mine obviously doesn't have anything and its just a threaded hole ?
 
Regards in advance

For q2, did a previous owner have luggage fitted that would have attached here?

Yes the hole is for the pannier carrier to attach to.

Ah thats what that treaded holes for      not for tax disc holder which ive used it for

Thanks folks. That clears those questions up then. I guess the previous owner did have pannier racks fitted as something has been fitted at some point.
 
I take it from the diagram that the rear brake caliper doesn't have a dust cover either. Phew, i dont have to buy a replacement now

IIRC there should be a weight bolted to the pillion footrests to help dampen vibrations, they get removed for the rack fittings. I have had my SW Motech rack and pannier mounts on for about 7 years now, so weights lost in the mist of time

Ahhh, that also makes sense as the front footrest hangers have weights attached too
