Am I restricted to the V35 side cases? Got a set of E41 keyless side cases and a Maxia 52l top boxes, can I fit these?


Cheers guys.

The official Yam colour is??.............. And does anyone know of one for sale?

Need some pointers here.


My daughters Fazer, 02 plate, less than 9,000 miles from new, last used properly on our Spain tour in August 2011, been sat in the garage since.


Getting it prepped for our tour in 8 weeks time so gave it a full service, changed all fluids, fresh petrol,  fresh tyres, took it for mot and noticed it's misfiring. Gotta be the carbs gummed up was my first thought, so without investigating anything else, whipped out the carbs and stripped em. They were absolutely spotless, no signs of gumming up anywhere. Had all the jets out etc and blew em through with compressed air just to be sure.


Reasembled and she's still misfiring. Wet hand on the downpipes reveals No 2 is not firing. Although the plugs have been in for 3 years they've done less than 3k so they should be fine (no guarantee though)


So, swapped plug 1 with plug 2. No2 still not firing. Drained the bowls on 1 and 2 = same amount of fuel from each so fuel getting in.


Swapped plug leads over on cylinders 2&3, No 2 still not firing.


Next step is to buy a compression tester.....


...unless you guys can suggest anything else to try.


Cheers.

Hiya guys, been yonks since i've been on here, hope you're all doing well.


Just preparing my daughters 02 Fazer for our coming tour and had to (or thought I had to) strip and clean the carbs out due to it running like a bag of shit. It's been stood since the end of 2011 so my initial thought was the carbs being gummed up. They were bloody spotless! Typical.


Anyway, had the carbs stripped of all their jets etc and stored the parts nicely in numbered containers etc, had tops, float bowls, pipe work, idle control cable etc off and was just preparing to blow the carbs through with some air when I picked up the carbs and found this piece on the bench under the carbs. My guess is that it's off the idle cable assembly but i'm not 100% sure. Can anyone help me and tell me exactly where it's from? Got a microfische link I can look at??


Cheers guys, here's the pic







Incidentaly, it would have been Rosebud's birthday today. I'm sure she's fondly remembered by you as much as me. Gonna raise a glass or two in her memory tonight
