Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Brake rotor bolts on FZ1
« on: 07 December 2015, 07:44:59 pm »
evening Foccers!!


My lovely new brembo rotors have arrived today and I wish to replace the bolts whilst I am on with it... Been looking on fleabay and there seems to be a decent choice from oem to titanium... But before I order any just wondering if any of you are selling stainless/titanium bolts direct? As I would prefer to line your back pocket and not fleabays.


Cheers,


Charlie

« on: 05 April 2015, 09:07:25 am »
Morning Foccers,

Went to view an FZ1 2009 Gen 2 yesterday... but... the radiator fan didn't kick in like it does on my FZS 1000 Gen 1 after a minute... I waited until the temperature was upto 100deg and I chickened out waiting any longer... Do the Gen 2's kick in on tick over after a minute like the Gen 1's? if not what temperature does the fan normally kick in at? Cheers  :smokin

FZS600 Fazer / fzs 600 Insurance
« on: 01 September 2013, 09:13:56 am »
Morning Foccers,

Just had a nice surprise with the insurance... went on the comparison websites as you do and the best quote I could get was around the £120 mark and this was without declaring all my modifications. After declaring the quote then went right up to £180+ which I think is a little harsh!! So I thought I would try MCE custom direct... with everything declared and limited recovery £110 all in!!

Just wondering what sort of price you guys pay for modified/custom insurance on your 600's?

FZS600 Fazer / Yamaha FZS 600 Spocket ratio's
« on: 22 July 2013, 06:51:04 pm »
Chaps,

I am looking at changing the ratio on the sprockets.. I have a lot of twisties in East/North Yorkshire that need some major attention!!

Can you guys give me some feed back to whom have changed their sprocket ratio's i.e. 14t on the front etc.

Much appreciated
