So I bought an FZ1 a few months ago and recently passed my test. Two weeks ago a van driver didn't see me and pulled out of a junction and drove into me. I was going about 18 or 19mph and he hit me on the left hand side and the bike fell over, on top of me, on the right. His insurance company have accepted liability and collected the bike and sorted me with a courtesy car etc.

They've had one assessor look at the bike who has said its a total loss. The insurance company are sending another next week. I really disagree its a total loss and I really want my bike back and repaired. The gear lever on the left has snapped off from the impact and the tank is dented a bit as well as some scratching to the front right side fairing and exhaust but there is no way the repairs are more than 75% of the value of the bike. The front brake lever is also bent.

I really want my bike back and repaired so wondered if anyone had any thoughts on what to do next? From what I've seen online it looks like the insurance company will say its a total loss in most cases even with very minor damage?

Can anyone recommend a mechanic in Bedfordshire, my mate decided he would do my ex up valve and sort my leaking carbs. He broke the studs and the leak is now worse !!


Thanks in advance

Hi All,


so rode the Fazer 1000 gen1 round the block and the front forks are leaking so 1st question whats the preferred springs for road riding(progressive with 7.5 oil?)  and 2nd question is the R6 08 on rear shock a straight swap and does that include 2017 to present R6 rear shock ?


i did read a lot on here so i think i have answered my own question but if someone could confirm that would be great and at least its not a which oil/tyres question  :rollin :rollin

As part of my nightmare of coolant system, I have ended with the water pipes from the barrel removed, repainted, and now coming back to place, but realised that a lot of limescale (mixed with the rust of the old metal pipes of my bike) has behind left on the wall of the barrel.


You can see the level of limescale on here:



Does anybody know of a good way of removing it?


Should it be good to go with new O-ring a proper greased? (I am thinking going this way, to avoid doing more bad than good, and in the hope that it will not end worst than it was before I started the works... And I can always remove it again and put new O-rings again...


Thanks a lot in advance,

Hi All,


so its been awhile since I've been on here after i sold the Fazer 600 and brought an R1 i swiftly named Triggers Broom  , had it a couple of years, then got a R1 5vy which i still have.


Had several bikes to commute on (scooters 125 ,AJS Cadwell 125, Xmax 300,) but recent thought Fazer 1000 Gen 1, so i brought a bit of a donkey in the looks dept (badly painted wheels /engine/ rusty frame but only surface) but 2 previous owners and 34k miles.


it has a few issues.. no mot, no neutral light, right indicators/ hazards don't always work but the main concern is its clunky from 1st to 2nd, i haven't ridden it yet but is this normal , seem to remember my 5JJ was the same.


i will ask these questions in the Fazer 1000 section as well or feel free to move this whole thread there. :rollin :rollin
