I've heard it's possible to balance the carburetors by just listening to engine and adjusting the screws.
has anyone ever done this?

Thanks

Anyone got one for sale? A friend of mine who despatches needs one. The same chap who bought dazza's rear shock. Cheers guys.

Hi all,

I currently have a Gen1 with 8k on the clock with following upgrades.
Ivans kit, braided lines front and rear, EBC HH Pads, pipercross air filter, blueflame end can, Hyperpro springs in forks and on shock. Just passed MOT with no advisories Bike is in mint condition.
I enjoy riding it a great deal bought it with 5k on the clock 2 years ago and done 3k since.  goes well, handles well and I enjoy every factor of it. BUT I fancy something a bit newer for some reason?!

My issue is does the extra cash I will spend warrant the change?
My other issue is that I am 6'3 and 17 stone and change so thinking will the gen2 be too firm for me? I always wanted an R1 but due to my size I have avoided one after sitting on one a few years back. Just looking for a compromise I guess.

Any thoughts welcomed

heres my 2011 FZ8 with a few extras added.

added a few extras to it like the stubby micron pipe, short brake and clutch levers, and
the radiator grill and sides. and belly pan too.
hope  this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
Davy.

I have been on Superduke and ktm forum for a few years (dont get out much).

Now sold my RC8 and bought a 2004 FZS1000 from a guy who had it from new and only managed 5000 miles (he didnt get out much either).

Got a few plans to upgrade the Fazer and will need to ask a few dumb newbie questions along the way. Please bear with me during this difficult time as the bike is a keeper and I hope I wont be the new boy in school for long.
