Marquez has been declared fit to race, returning next weekend for the GP in Portimao. With 16 races remaining on the calendar, and a 40 point deficit, I certainly wouldn’t bet against him.

The last time i rode my bike back in late september it ran sweet no problems, in mid october i decided to clean the bike it fired up ok but when i rode it a little bit i noticed there was a misfire around 5k - 8k.. i put this down to the fact i had not disconnected the battery and i needed charging that why it was misfiring.


The battery has been on the optimate for well over a month now, went back the garage yesterday hooked up the battery and tried to start it didnt start straight away, i left it 5 mins and it fired up and was ticking over without any problems once i had warmed it up i again had a little ride and the same thing is still there, bike has done 33k.


I changed the plugs back in the UK when i bought the bike to ngk iridium they have done maximum 1000 miles,
I need to get this fixed as a divorce bill means sadly my bike has to go, anyone any ideas.


Thanks in advance

  Just wondering what is the correct sales brochure for my Fazer?  It's a late registered 04 model on an 05 plate, checked with Fowlers years ago. The question is should the brochure be marked #3MC-0107004-03E.  The 03 near the end seems to relate to the year but I have never seen an FZS 1000 brochure marked 04E!  The two production years, 03 and 04 FZS 1000s I believe are exactly the same machines, tuning fork logo on the tank and exactly the same colours were available which makes me think there is possibly only one sales brochure marked 03E.  I am sure some of the immensely learned Fazer gurus on here will know!

first thing to state this is not on my fazer but on my triumph bonneville but im sure you will offer your kind help whatever bike it is .


so i was intending to change brake pads on the rear today , got as far as breaking bolts before removing the caliper has two brake pins with threaded heads then shank so the threads are immediately after the pin head and part of the pin head, it sits flush (fully in ) with the caliper casting, its rounded to buggery now and i need a way to get it out. as it sits flush with the casting these is no access to any part of the pin head, its a 5mm allen head and not a lot of meat to the head beyond the allen head insert itself . so it not a good scenario , not protruding , not a lot of metal around the head and seized tight and rounded to buggery.


stating the obvious its the lower  in the pic , the other came out going back in for now copper greased etc
any help?

The majority of the servicing has been carried out by myself and I have kept many of the receipts.

Bought a Fazer 1000 last year and it's sat in the garage pretty much ever since. Hoping to get out on it again soon. Looks like I created an account here back then but never got around to posting anything  :rollin


I live in wonderful Milton Keynes so if there are any rideouts nearby, let me know.


Anyway, here is a picture of my bike in Wales on the one ride I managed between lockdowns

.

I removed the tank,now I'm fitting it back and I've forgotten which hose fits were underneath  the tank.
One for petrol other water,but not sure which way they go.


Cheers
