Evening All,

Just a few lines to say hi.
This must be the place to find out if the fazer thou is the bike for me? Now getting to that grey stage in life and looking for a bike that can still deliver a thrill without being on a full blown sports bike. Hope you can help?

hi guys as its says need a clutch basket im basically pennyless but if you guys have one you can chick me for like 20 30 pounds you save my bacon just did my first clutch plate change on my 2000 fzs600 and found that the basket has been rubbing on inside of case  :eek :'(
so if someone can help you would be awesome

Kia ora Foccers young and auld, I hope you and yours are going foccin’ splendidly in these “interesting” times we all find ourselves in.


Alas it seems that it’s not only Suzuki that are looking to withdraw from the status quo of the motorcycle world this year, we here at Foc-U are contemplating the same.


It’s no secret that Bob and I have been struggling to find the time that our beloved forum needs recently.
I say Bob and I, but in reality it’s Bob that has been running things for at least two years, if not more, as aside from footing the bill for 8 years, I just haven’t been in the personal space to give time to Foc-U at all.
Thankfully Bob has been willing to cover not only the costs for this year, but also the day to day running of the forum, so we ALL need to acknowledge this and owe him thanks ( and a pint or five when you see him next) for doing so.


Around December I posted on the forum that we were looking for admins and was desperately disappointed at the lack of responses from Foccers willing to take on the mantle of Admin/Mods.
I’m unsure if it’s Pandemic, social media or apathy reasons, but I’ve seen more interest in bunking with Heath, Ginge and I at the Spring Meet than I saw in that post.


As much as it pains me to admit, the offers to buy out the Forum from folks looking to cash in on the historical success and member base is starting to make more and more sense to both myself and Bob.


This post is really a last ditch effort to see if any of you magnificent Foccers are willing to take on the challenge of bringing Foc-U into the 2020s with an integrated forum and social media base through time, enthusiasm, expertise and perhaps a little coin, or whether I should face up to the fact that the Halcyon days of the board have long since past and look at getting out whilst the getting is good.


So…


This is the last call for any interested parties to step forward and take on the role of Admins from Bob & I to move Foc-U into the ‘20s before we, reluctantly, look at selling the domain rights and historical archives of posts to the interested commercial parties.


I hope some of you, like me, don’t want to see the auld girl tarted up with adverts and banners and are willing to take us on our journey for the next decade as I (kinda) have since moving from Yuku to this iteration, but if not please don’t complain down the line when you need to log in with your card details handy…


Take care, stay safe and I hope you all keep it shiny side up.
Love ’n hugs,
Aegis

Hi Folks.

New to the group so hope i posted this in the correct place.

I have a Fazer 600 Year 2000. Just had the downpipes changed because the noise the engine was making sounded like the exhaust blowing. 1 of the studs had broke so when the engine warmed up i thought that was expanding and causing the blowing noise.

Changed oil and filters also.

Did a trip to work and back yesterday (Aprox. 15 mile round trip) and when i got it home it sounded like exhaust blowing again. The noise gets worse the longer the engine been running.

Any idea's of what to look at next would be greatfully recieved.

Thanks in advance

Hi allWas thinking of upgrading my exhaust as I don't want to take it off the road while I fix the dreaded siezed exup butterfly valve screws, black widow seem very cheap compared to brands such as akropovic and scorpion.


My question is are they any good? I'd be interested to hear of anyones experience with black widow
Thanks ?

Afternoon Gents, 


I have had low beam on both bulbs go, and I'm looking for replacement bulbs recommendations. I remember reading somewhere that the wiring has some limitations, so looking for the best bulbs I can get without overloading the wiring loom.


Cheers,
Mark
