Hi,
I've had a MOT today but, unfortunately I've failed.
Fail list:
1. Rear susp. bush excessive free play.
2. Brake lever inadequate reserve travel (propably air in hoses)
3. Not a full registration plate
4. Nearside rear footrest insecure
Ad 1.
The man said that bottom bearing it's too lose, but would be good to replace a kit.
He wrote down on the list:
Tri arm bush kit
Bottom shock and Rear tri arm bush/bearing
EDIT: I've also found such a kit:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-FZS600-Fazer-98-03-Rear-Shock-Bearing-Kit-8841637-/150905568915?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts_13&hash=item2322ac3e93He said that kit would be about 45 quids (not genuine), however he would charge me 90 quids repair including parts.
For me it seems to be not too bad, but just wanted to verify if it's reasonable price for that?
I've found also this topic:
http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php?topic=336.0... and got mixed feeling if it will help.
If it's not reasonable price do you know where I can find set of all bearings in that place?
So I will just literally replace them when wheel is already removed.
Ad 2. I've ordered brake fluid so I will also replace it when I am already here.
Ad 3. Do you have idea where it's the best place to order new legal plate?
Ad 4. Ok so the problem is that rider left footrest it's turning.
It was not problem for me at all. I've had a feeling that it's adjusting to gear change lever.
I've dismounted that (2 hex bolts), but there is no screw at all to tighten that.
Right foot rest seems to be solid.
How do I repair that?
Thanks.
