the whole display goes off, including the rev counter, speedometer, fuel gauge and clock then comes back on, all this happens only when the pass / flash button is pressed so far and not when indicating.
Hmmm flat battery, poss but this happened after a 96mile run home along the M1,M45 and A45 with a constant speed above 60mph.

I am currently running a set from sandy spares which i got off ebay, they also come with the five gaskets as well

my 02 fazer is running a hi flo filter, sandy spares stainless down pipes and a scorpion end can with removable baffles.
i haves just serviced the bike and balanced the carb's so the question  is if i run the bike without the baffles in what long term effect is it going to have on the engine or can the fazer engine take it?


cheers

cheers mate, yeah it helps if i am right it means the indicators are going to roughly be in the same position as the original inicators.
I was hoping to be able to get them closer to the fairing cause if i ever drop my bike again i was trying to get the indicators from touching down and buggering up the fairing like they did couple of years ago.

thinking of geting some fairing lowers off ebay, they say they come pre drilled to fit to existing points
on the bike, does anyone know where these points are and what the bike would look like with them on?

I thought the set of 5 gaskets were around £15?
Which still puts them cheaper than these buuuuuuuuuuuuuut after a run from brum down to Luton and back today i'm more than chuffed with my pipes.

Well ended up at Chas Mann motorcycles for them to fit them, they had to drill a series of holes around my existing exhaust header bolts on cyl 2 &3 just to get them off without snapping the studs.
Once these bolts were off these pipes fitted straight on and F*** me what a difference they make to the bike, it seams to be running alot smother now, my scopion end can has a deeper growl to it and it makes the bike look so much better (mines silver so they sort of compliment the look.)
Overall very happy with them.

has anyone had any experience with these guys.

Thinking of getting a set of ebay

Is it possible to get cruise control for the FZS600 foxeye?

   clamping the brake line was what i used to do on cars and as the material looked similar i thought i could used
the brake hose clamps i have

How do you grease that as i thought it was pretty much a sealed unit?

Ok i stripped my front brakes down to clean them as i have been getting a squeal from the front from starting about 40ish, when i noticed that on both sides i am getting uneven pad wear.
 
So have ordered some replacement seals of the internet and i am going to attemp to strip and replace all the relevant seals on both brake calipers, soooooo i have been reading my haynes manual and was wondering if anyone had any hints / tips that they found helped when do their brakes.
 
Reason for asking there is a small section that is a bit grey to me, basically the manual says to clamp a bit of wood over one side to prevent the pistons on one side from moving, then to apply pressure to the brake lever until the oter side "pop" out, it then says to remove the seals and replace the pistons, clamp the wood on this side and repeat to get the other pistons out.
 
the grey area for me is once i get the first set of pistons out what stops air getting back into the system........and yes i intend to replace the brake fluid with fresh stuff.
 
Cheers
