Can anyone help with this. I get brake judder from the front brakes. I have cleaned the discs and callipers and this does improve matters but by the end of every ride the problem is back. It is as if the brakes are pulsing on and off. I did have this problem when I first bought the bike and I took it back and they seemed to have resolved the problem, but I don't know exactly what they did. My first thought was a sticking calliper but I have checked these and don't think that is the case. Any Ideas?

Anyone in London area done the headlight mod and fancy doing mine/ watching and laughing as I fail doing it?

Just posted this on another forum be interested in others opinions.



Just to move away from the thread and not showing any disrespect to the late Bob Price sadly killed at this years TT.
I mentioned in that post that in my opinion it was time that there was an age restriction applied for competitors.
It is only a couple of years since the last older competitors died 2011 also 2012 and now 2014
Bill Currie&Kevin Morgan, Bill was I believe 66? and Kevin Morgan 57, 2012 Trevor Ferguson must have been in his late 50's ? which prompted Ryan Farrquar to retire (his uncle) and now Bob Price at 65. There may be more than this, but these do stick in my mind.
Road racing is my favourite form of motorcycle sport. I am fast becoming disillusioned with it now. Just did a google search on the IOM TT/Manx GP races. Since 2000 there have been 47 fatalities involving riders, there have been a few spectator deaths as well.
Since the start of the Road Racing 2014 season between Ireland & IOM events 4 races so far we have had 3 deaths. One at the Tandragee 100 in May , 1 at the NW 200 in May and now to date 1 at the TT.
I know no one is putting a gun to a riders head and making them do it, BUT maybe enough is enough.
I would hate to see road racing stopped so perhaps it is time to take a look at seeing if more can be done to improve safety, I know it is on going all the time BUT MORE AND MORE HAS TO BE DONE.
Would it be feasable to add chicanes at areas with a history of being a black spot. They have done a lot of this at the NW 200 all be it taking some of the excitment away from that event but it has cut down on a lot of bad accidents. Okay I know Simon Andrews died there this year , strange one that happened on a straight,the run down to the Metroploe (bumpy section or was two years ago)
Is there a need for Superbikes at Road Races ? 210 MPH. I know it is the most exciting class or usually is but?
Just my opinion, it really saddens me when I see or hear about any rider who pays the ultimate price while providing me and 1000's of other lovers of this CRUEL SPORT that takes no prisoners.
Sorry if I have waffled on a bit but I am sure you get the point of my thread.

Hi,

Recently I spent a day riding a FZ8 S around south of Spain. One of the things I noticed was the nice and wide handlebar on the FZ8, compared to my FZS600. Back on my bike this week, the handlebars feels cramped and right side is slightly out of alignment as well

I read here that you could get Renthal bars and with some chopping and changing, you would get it work well with the FZS600.

Does anyone have a Renthal bar used or spare for sale?

Thanks!

anyone going?

its free,half hour ride from me and i will learn something so its a good day out imho

see ya there maybe?

Hi All


Just about to re-plate my bike in Spain, but I am trying to find out exactly what costs are involved......just so I don't get ripped off.


Does any one know the C02 emissions so I can work out the costs.


I will post a how import your bike to Spain with exact figures when it has been done.


Thanks in advance
