FZS600 Fazer / Brighter Headlight bulb?

« on: 03 April 2020, 05:44:36 pm »

Hi Guys,

Can anyone recommend / post A link to a replacement build for my 03' fzs600 please?
One that I can buy and straight fit. Do I need to look out for any specific specification for what I can have? or just buy one from Halfords etc.. Thanks

I wouldn't personally be changing the oil today though, if a dealer is going to do it all again tomorrow.
When i was saying measure what's in there it was more to do with having the right amount to get you safely to the shop.
As Fazerider said though, is there any white mayo like substance on the inside of the oil cap?

And is the mileage definitely TWO thousand miles?

Hi, drained oil and it was just mucky. no white substance or anything strange, just brown in colour.
Will put in cheap Halfords oil to drive the hour or so to the yam dealer tomorrow to do another oil and filter change.

yeah milage is definitely TWO thousand, I have all MOT's, documents and original invoice from 2003 so 100% original

FZS600 Fazer / Oil issue

« on: 04 February 2020, 04:30:24 pm »

So I've got a 2003 FZS 600 with 2k miles on the clock.
I got it about august 2019, and its been stood from then to start of this month, so about 6 months. Ive started it every week and let it run for a while..
Start of this month I've got it on the road, and after 200 miles in 2 days the oil level light came on when I was nearly home anyway.
I put in a bit of oil, started it up and it came back on, anyway I put about another litre in and its still on.

I can't even see the level through the sight glass, its brown so I imagine its dirty from gunk build up?

I'm going to change the oil myself tomorrow, and the day after its having a full oil and filter change from a yam dealer.

Just wondering if there's any common issue in this area?
cheers all
