Hi,
Can I use normal gloss paint on the engine covers or do I need to used high temperature paint?
Thanks

Just booked hotel and ferry for the North West 200....gonna be a crackin weekend!!!!

Right guys after a cheap second bike just as a work commuter really dont want anything snazzy. £500-£700 budget what u think been looking at gpz500's,bandits etc any ideas or anyone got anything for sale? doesnt have to be pretty  just a runner not a bike in bits.Thanks.

I'm relatively new to the forum & biking, I've put up a couple of posts about brakes, as the brakes on my old girl ('99) have been seriously neglected by her last owner. I've got the pads, calipers & s/s hoses on the front sorted, but the discs are shot, plus the rear disc is warped, I'll be replacing the pads on the rear, along with upgrading the hoses.
So, my question is, what discs to go for?

It's been suggested I clean the valves whilst the head is off. What's the best way to do this (what solutions/tools to clean?), and do I need to replace the valve stem oil seals or can they be reused if in good nick?

Feeling peckish ?

So the rear is off the floor , no probs, a paddock stand with coaster wheels.


How has or what are the ways in the shed to get the front up so that the front wheel can be removed.


I have a welder and various hydraulic jacks at hand.

Just though would say Hi now that I am a Fazer owner and see what this group is like.

Howdy all,


I've lost the keys for my givi box and it is locked. Does anybody know if it's possible to get a new key to match the barrel (number 055) or have one lying around somewhere?


Would be a great help!
