  Ivans pod filter set up!
Posted by: RMT1983 - 05-08-24, 07:58 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (11)

Has anyone done the Ivans pod filter set up on their bike?

I've been fortunate enough to snatch his last 2 sets but as I understand it he won't be making anymore ?

Also with holeshot having closed their shop temporarily maybe that's a hole in the market!?

These are soon to find their way onto my nike along with the full monty+ appropriate main jets ti suit...

Lightbulb New Owner Headlight Q
Posted by: TheGHunter - 05-08-24, 10:56 AM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (17)

Hello everyone , 
New Fazer owner here. Looking at doing a headlight upgrade and although there's plenty already on here about this I just have a quick Q. 
Considering each side (Dipped and full ) work I dependently of each other, when I do the mod to make them both come on at the same time, will I have a full beam on the whole time ? Obviously this would cause issues. Or are there bulbs I can buy before that can work together but alternative between full/dipped. I have attached pics of current bulbs and a few of the bike for anyone Interested. Many thanks to the reedits lads for directing me here too. I'm sure they're all here too.  Thanks

  Bicycle chain lube advice
Posted by: fazersharp - 04-08-24, 10:16 PM - Forum: General - Replies (4)

I used muckoff dry lube but after leaving a bike unused for a couple of years in a shed the chain has completely seized I used the dry lube cause like the fazer I wont be riding in the wet but after googling it seems that is what can happen with the muckoff dry lube if you do not keep topping it up or it is subject to normal shed environment with a bit of damp .
I spent about 3 hours freeing every link buy bending back and forth with some oil so it wasn't like it was rusty.
So looking for advice on what to use,
 muck off wet 
3 in one
ACF 50
WD 40
Something else
Don't fancy paying £££ for exotic stuff although I know that ACF 5 falls into this category but I already have a tin of that for the Faz

  FZ1: front mudguard - t-washer mounting
Posted by: b1k3rdude - 03-08-24, 05:25 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - No Replies

So Im replacing my front mudguard, as the old one cracked around the upper mounting points. And I dont know if this is because the previous owner fitted the t-washer/s incorrectly.

- First question is, when you guys have fitted/removed the mudguard, which directions did you have the t-washers? was it as per the yamaha/fowlers parts diagram? (see attached)

- Second question is with regards to the rubbers isolation gromets appear to be sided, which isnt indicated on the diagram. As in one side is the same outer diameter as the t-washer and the other sider has a smaller diameter. MU logica is I fit the gromets so the bigger side faces the t-washer.

ta.

Photo FZS 600 2003 Bolts torque specs
Posted by: crocodileonyamaha - 01-08-24, 11:54 AM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (3)

Hi!

Does anyone know the torque specs for the stem nut (#9 ) and triple clamp pinch bolts (#41) for yamaha fzs 600 2003? I'm trying to fix the alignment of my front fork/wheel/steering wheel and feel iffy about tightening the bolts back with just a wrench (is it a secure option?); most instructions suggest following the torque specs for specific bolts and using a torque wrench, but I just couldn't find these two specs anywhere.

  Tail tidy and rear wheel spray
Posted by: b1k3rdude - 31-07-24, 04:12 PM - Forum: General - Replies (3)

So Im getting kinda fed of the spray coming of the rar wheel and covering the back of the bike and me in dirt/dirty water as a result of the previous owner fitting a tail tidy.

After coming across this Z1000sx owners I then found the product and wondered if anyone has fitted one..?

  £2 per hour to park your motorcycle/scooter in Hounslow
Posted by: b1k3rdude - 31-07-24, 01:46 PM - Forum: General - No Replies

Hounslow Council should urgently reconsider their plans for motorcycle and scooter parking charges, or risk devastating impacts to the lives and livelihoods of riders and those who rely on them -

·         Motorcycle bays charged at £1-£2 per hour, totalling £2,000-£4,160 per year for a commuter
·         20-40 times more expensive than the few other Boroughs who charge for motorcycle parking
·         Residents’ motorcycle permits to cost up to £120 per year, business permits up to £520
·         Charges even for electric mopeds which have no more impact than Lime bikes
