Many recommend Renthal 758 as an improvement on the Gen 1 Fazer 1000...can anyone advise ? are they lower or higher than standard ? Thank you.

My oil level glass has gone black is there any way to clear it without removing it

Am looking for a replacement tank, will be resprayed so minor blemishes not a problem. Bike is currently black.


Please PM me if you have one for sale, cheers.

Right, so today I've been banned for 12 months reduced to 9 (attend a course). I blew 41mg after going to fetch my son who was having a panic attack. I know there's no excuse for drink driving but when your lad is in trouble then that's all most people think about - just jumped in the car and went. Was caught due to a wanker Audi driver at a width restriction.....blew the N/S rear tyre then at the next roundabout there they were - no place to change tyre prior. Still no excuse I know.


The thing is, I have no other way to get to work so am seriously considering "chancing it" on the bike.


The question is......Does anyone know what the consequences are for driving whilst disqualified.


Please - no "Holier than thou" comments......I know drink driving is serious but sometimes a need to provide is strong. FYI - 38yrs with a clean licence.


As always, any advice is much appreciated.


Cheers

Does anybody have any concerns with using the new fuels? I understand the Fazer Gen 1 will run on E10?

Hey Hey
Just checking in as a noob. This resource helped me buy a nice fazer and I am sure will add massively to my ownership of it !

Owned it two weeks, 440 miles and already have the dual headlamp mod ordered (2001 boxeye, 9000 miles).

Loving it right now.

Ive a S2 and want to attach/screw a phone/satnav holder to the screen rather than the handle bar. Has anyone got any ideas ?? I'd rather have it more in front of me above the clocks so trying to find a bracket/holder I could adapt.Thanks in advance.

Can anyone advise which R6 shock will fit a Gen 1 Fazer 1000 ?

Hi there just wondering if anyone could identify this part for me, it unscrews from underneath the starter button/throttle cable on the handlebars (99 fzs) . It has 2 small spade ends that plug into it, 1 is broken and left inside this part (please forgive the wording)


I was on a ride yesterday and made it a good few miles but then the engine was cutting out whenever i would depress the clutch lever to change gear.


I pulled over and while it would bump start fine, as soon as i held in the clutch it would cut out.


The starter motor would not stop engaging when i held the clutch in, this was prior to me breaking the spade end of said part.


I figured now i'll strip the whole bike and have it as a winter project, so just seeking this part out.


Again, forgive the wording and the long winded description.


Any help appreciated.
