Hi, Who knows the exact model of r1 front end that fits the fzs 1000? What is required? Does it go straight on or is there new bearings etc.. required. Regarding the rear are nitron shocks the way to go? I have the r6 shock mod, which is good, but may want to go to the next level.Thanks, Nick.

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / mt 09

« on: 17 November 2013, 12:13:22 am »

Was at local yamaha dealers and saw the new mt 09. Better looking bike in the flesh than on print. All manufacturers are going down the route of the street triple in appearance. Aprilia , ktm and now Yamaha are building bikes that are uber fun while making them look funky. Aprilia tuono v4r, mt 09, ktm 1290 etc... I think there is a change in the outlook for an outright fun bike. I think the days of superbikes is going in the UK. The other trend is big trailees getting big sales on our market.

FZS600 Fazer / best tyres for fzs 600 in winter

« on: 04 November 2013, 10:30:42 pm »

I have a set of avon storm tyres on my recently purchased fzs 600. they have worn unevenly front and rear. when i picked up bike it had 12 psi front and 17 psi rear. The rear has squared off even though there is loads of life in the tyre and the front has worn correctly, as in more worn in centre than sides but feels bumpy running my hand front to back. Has anyone else used avon storms? Whats the tyre of choice for crap weather for the fazer?

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / vm 29 semi flatside question

« on: 07 September 2013, 10:38:29 pm »

Being naughty as this has nothing to do with my fazer thou, but my gsxr 750 'slabside' I have recently replaced the starter, ultrasonically cleaned the carbs, replaced the float needle valves and the bike still leaks fuel if fuel tap left on. Next issue is if i leave fuel tap on it lets fuel into the combustion chamber if left overnight, which causes a hydraulic lock - this was the reason i got a new starter, as i thought it was knackered. funnily enough it was pretty goosed, as the fuel leak ran onto the starter and removed the internal grease

. Anyway does anyone know why it is letting fuel into combustion chamber? I know if i turn the fuel tap off i will have both issues sorted, but i owned this bike 8 years ago and never needed to turn tap off..

Ps... Fazer has been rebuilt after accident and has been in use for last few months

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / starter/solenoid question

« on: 03 August 2013, 06:31:42 pm »

Having an issue with one of my bikes.. In the morning when pressing starter the bike spins briefly then stops. When i press starter button there is a buzzing sound but the engine wont turn over. If i rock the bike back and forth in gear and press the starter it fires up. I tried shorting the solenoid this morning after it wouldnt turn over and it fired up? Question - is it starter or solenoid? it would appear starter 'rocking back and forth' and also solenoid 'shorting'

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Just received my new fairing

« on: 11 June 2013, 07:31:04 pm »

I have just got my brand new fairing from Yamaha The colour is silver storm, the darker 2004 silver. The first thing i noticed was that the new fairing is noticeably lighter in colour. My bike was immaculate before the accident and was garaged, so there would be no chance of sun bleaching etc.. Has anyone else bought a new fairing and it doesn't match. I know that when you repaint it can be difficult to match. I thought it may have been the silver tech colour that is lighter. Is there any way of checking the paint code? The dealer ordered 'bluish silver 4, which i think is right.
