  Dyno Results
Posted by: teecee90 - 21-08-20, 04:44 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (5)

Had my bike Ivanised (slip-on) by Mike a few years ago. I know it goes well but decided to put it on the dyno just out of curiosity.


130.5bhp, 75.04 torque, lovely power curve and fueling is spot-on. The guy running the dyno was very impressed and said dont do anything to it, its perfect! Well pleased - Ivans development expertise and Mike's brilliant work continue to deliver.....

  Handle bar mounted mirrors
Posted by: grebo75 - 20-08-20, 11:11 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (4)

Hi All. I'm ditching my fairing and most of the fairing bracket too. I've noticed my handlebars have a blanked off threaded hole on each side which looks like it was probably intended for mounting mirrors.
Anyone know of any other bike which has mirrors that would fit? The thread appears to be M9, but searches for M9 handlebar mirrors are drawing a blank.
Any help appreciated, thanks

2003 Yamaha FZS600 Fazer Rebuild

The original purpose for the work was to protect the ali during winter commute duties….. But that was 8 years ago…. !!!!!  I’m semi-retired now… the furthest I commute now is from the bedroom to the kitchen for breakfast….. ? So, although the bike isn’t a ‘show’ bike by any stretch of the imagination, it has a different purpose in life now…..

New/refurbished items:

  • £700 worth of Seals, bearings and shims!!!!!!
  • Forks rebuilt with Hagon Progressive springs
  • New Delkevik Radiator
  • Beowulf Guard
  • New SS downpipes (quite why I didn’t just strip the originals I don’t know!!!!)
  • Lextek carbon can
  • Leovince hi-level link pipe reworked to fit can
  • Calipers refurbished with new pistons, seals and nipples etc (Brakemasters Chesterfield)
  • Carbs stripped and refurbished  (Matt Harper near Nantwich)
  • New Inlet rubbers (engine side)
  • Wheels painted
  • Valve clearances whilst engine out of frame
  • Hagon rear Shox
  • ‘Fazer’ polished Torque arm
  • Chain and Sprockets
  • Clutch cable
  • R&G Bar ends
  • New fluids and grease all around
  • MX Hand guards
Powdercoating:
  • Forks
  • Swingarm
  • Cam covers and end caps
  • Hangers and pegs
Exhaust hanger:
  •   Rear Brake lever
Rear Brake caliper hanger:
  • Gear lever
  • Sidestand
  • Main stand
  • Cut down Leovince Can (Didn’t use in the end)
  • Various other bits and pieces  (I’ll try and post some pictures)
£150 for all the bits at Rugby Powdercoating… But that was 8 years ago…… lol

The seat cover was already on the bike, but I attached an old tank bag to it… al la endure style… originally just to hold a few things on the commute….. Deefer did most of the extra curriculum ‘red’ paintwork before the ‘rebuild’…. I did the mirrors and fairing inners….

Pictures:
  • Mark 1... Standard... save for a Givi Wing Rack....
  • Mark 2... Seat cover and high level can
  • Mark 3... Start of the redness.....
  • Mark 4... todays iteration

  FZ1 - Power Commander V and SpeedoHealer v4:
Posted by: OSKARO - 20-08-20, 12:01 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (3)

Hi grey matter of the Forum,

I'd like to ask a question. Maybe more then one. Ok, this is the scenario -

I have a FZ1 S 2011 ABS with Healtech SpeedoHealer v4 installed to correct my sprockets ratio 16T / 46T  (520). I'm planning to install the DynoJet Power Commander V.

My question is, Could it goes in conflict? Could I control the sprockets ratio with PC? Could I keep both? Anyone had any experience about this scenario?

Thank you Guys
Cheers
Oscar

  Head gasket busted?
Posted by: orion kid - 19-08-20, 06:14 PM - Forum: General - Replies (13)


I dropped my 08 FZ6/S2 into a local shop near work last week for a stuck brake light and got him to do the fluids as it'd been over a year since anyone looked at it. I mentioned that I'd had a bit of coolant hiss and spill about 6 months ago but had put it down to an air bubble. He topped it up. A couple of days later the bike dumped a load of the new coolant in a big hissy fit, out top and bottom of hoses when it was switched off.


When I rang my guy to tell him this and get advice he's saying the head gasket is most likely busted, that it would cost upwards of 5-600 quid to repair possibly more because there could be further damage in the heads and that he thinks it might be better to get a new engine !


This is a pretty huge shock given that 5 days ago I thought I was the proud owner of a mint condition bike with only 20K miles on. Now I might have scrap on my hands. Actually he questioned the mileage also and said he thinks it's probably clocked, and that these engines shouldn't blow gaskets until 100K.


What do you guys think. Is this the only possible reason for the coolant dumping incidents ? What would you do ?
