FZS600 Fazer / Carb sync gone bad
« on: 26 October 2015, 10:47:52 pm »
Okay, I managed to mess up carb syncing on my 600 :( I was given an old car sync (vacuum type)... I had a feeling it was not really too accurate. It's the type with the funny plastic taps that adjust vacuum flow; I used one ages ago and it was not too bad. With this one it was either very temperamental, or not responsive enough. I don't know why but I thought  :evil I'll give it a go anyway... now it's worse than it was.

The question is: is it worth buying a new set of these vacuum-gage ones or should I go for Carbtune straight away. Also, it sounds a bit worse now, and my clutch rattle got worse too :( can I still ride it or could this cause damage? I need to get to work, and if it's for the sake of the Fazer... I can take a bus for a day or two  :rollin

Thanks : )

FZS600 Fazer / Swapping FZS 600 (2000) forks to older ones
« on: 13 October 2015, 10:44:06 pm »
Hi and thanks for replying,

read a couple of posts here on the forum and seems like it's okay to go ahead... but as they say it does not hurt to ask.
I am looking at swapping my old rusty 2002 forks with a pair of nice 1999 ones : ) I know I will lose the adjusters, but I am not too bothered about that. My stanchions are rusty and peeling (above compression level but I fear it will go down, I will use the bike daily throughout winter). Are there any issues I should be aware of or is it a simple swap.

Thanks  :)
