Hello from Gosport
« on: 26 July 2015, 06:46:49 pm »
just thought I'd say hello to everyone I'm in Gosport, I haven't got a fazer just yet as I'm looking to buy one within the next few weeks.


If anyone has some details on what to generally lookout for when buying that would be helpful, I'm looking for a fox eyed one as I like the idea that the lights are brighter which is better for the commute I do, can you get adjustable levers for them as I have a slight disability in my right hand so this is a must for me.

Welcome to the forum Sean!

FZS 600 is so good bike I cannot find any fazer specific issue that you may look for.

There is the famous front sprocket nut change, but honestly we have not seen any foxeye with real problems there. And if yours is old 9mm nut, the change is £6 to get the new 12mm nut.

Obviously look for general abuse, crashes, bad maintainance etc, but these are general things you look when you buy second hand.

Check the suspension, head bearings etc.

Obviously try to get low mileage one.
