Does it make a difference if the screw spacers go into position before the rubber pad as it seems to show in drawing?.

I can see that the centre stand rubber rests on a bracket on the OEM silencer link pipe, so hopefully the aftermarket ones do too ?.
Yes aftermarket link pipes come with bracket/bump stop. Buy a end can with a removable baffle then you can take it out if you want or leave it in. 28

Also you will need a universal joint 1/4 drive added to the end of the 1/4 drive extension bar.

Click on downloads & select manuals on the left, check pedal height adjustment & black plastic brake light switch with wires going to it at rear of pedal can be rotated up or down to alter when lights come on.

But I have already soaked and removed the nuts to be ready for a change. I soaked mine for a few weeks after rides when it was all hot/warm, and used a syringe to target the nuts and get right in there including the back of the nut header plate. And most nail varnish removers. 31

A carb balance maybe required after fitting new downpipes.

Delkevic are fine would prefer than Blackwidow, also use a penetrant spray as will be better than WD40.

Oil feed pipe is discontinued, but if you put fzs600 oil feed pipe into Ebay a list of hel colours of choice £39.99.

I would cure the rust then hand paint or spray (as it's not seen I prefer to hand paint for thicker coverage) with a metal paint i.e hammerite smooth black gloss or satin, no primer required.
Lighter coat around mounting holes if it's gonna cause a problem & mask the rubber stopper. 35

If Yamaha did change them to 8 mm then they didn't change the studs / nuts or cylinder head part numbers on their parts system for the FZS600. 36
FZS600 Fazer / Re: What aftermarket exhaust did you all get?« on: 15 September 2019, 10:12:03 pm »
All years had 6 mm studs & nuts.

FZS600 Fazer / Re: changing fork springs for a oem new set how do you measure oil and air gap« on: 01 September 2019, 07:48:56 pm »
Oil level is checked without the spring in, fork held vertically,add oil then slide fork inner tube up & down to distribute oil fully in fork leg don't go by quantity of oil add to near then measure from top of fork tube down inside to get correct level (fork fully compressed).

Any decent key cutter should have no problem cutting a new one from your snapped key.

Sounds good to me -send it in and let them do the whole thing and deal with any seized bits. Slippy, if you still have the Wemoto dust seals can you let us know if they're larger/difference between them & the Powerhouse ones when they arrive please. 41
FZS600 Fazer / Re: Rear brake rebuild« on: 16 August 2019, 03:56:35 pm »Have you fully scraped out any corrosion that’s in the groove. Sometimes hard to see but can make the difference. I have known aftermarket dust seals to be a bit hit and miss, sometimes you can get away with reusing the old one. In a bind I’ve had them where they’ve expanded and cut a small section out, then glue back together. Not ideal but can work! Unfortunately this has cropped up before about rear brake seals from Wemoto . 42

Some models of bikes have their light beams set straight unlike cars etc & don't pitch to the left or right, not sure if the FZS600 is one of the though or if the beam can be adjusted. Which country are you going to.

FZS600 Fazer / Re: Rear brake clunk/hot« on: 10 July 2019, 09:58:56 pm »Thanks for advice Foccers...It's not too hard, bleeding all the air out afterwards can be a PITA because of the U-bend path the fluid has to take, but you can loosen the banjo at the top of the master cylinder and let the bubbles out that way. The air bleeding part might be easier if you leave the reservoir cap on, clamp the brake hose or undo the banjo bolt at the caliper & place end of brake hose into a plastic bag sealed with a elastic band ( don't operate the brake pedal) then when you reconnect the brake hose it will only be the air in the caliper to expel when bleeding. This is for after changing seals in caliper. 50
