Anybody know anything about the US fazer site being down?


It’s been down for sometime now, wondering, hoping, it will come back online.

Hi all, i wanted to put some wider bars on my bike, i have allready put bar risers 1 up and  1 inch back on with std bars but want to fit some wider bars. i like the combined up and back and now wider.
my brother gave me some old wider bars to try and it all fits and feels good, exept the master cyclinder crashes in to the fairing preventing full lock.  its a big old master block on the FZS and i thought id get full lock with a smaller master particularly one that has a remote reservoir hosed to the lever assy ( as my triumph does ) then id have far more mounting flexibility.  however any replacement has to deliver same fluid displacement etc, so has anyone used a different master cyl lever on the fzs than the std one ? .


hoping to find something from a breaker but first need to find something with similar fluid pushing performance and with a small or remote master reservoir.
any thoughts ?


TIA 

The fazer is back on the road, and going like a fazer should and I'm like a dog with 2 dicks..


Had carbs on and off a few times, trying to sort out flat spot, getting annoyed,turns out it was the fuel pump all along.. :rolleyes

Juat gonna ride her everywhere and catch up on lost road craft.


What to do next ??? :rollin

Hi,
Just to check, will the piston seal in the master cylinder interchange with any of the 14mm OEM type? I would like to get any of those 14mm piston of other made and transfer the seal over due to cost and availability . Any one tried?

Good condition apart from a few marks and scratches on the side facing the bike. Comes with db killer, link pipe and all fittings. £150 in Cheltenham, could post at cost. Contact Ben on 07412156811

Hi all,


I just signed up for this forum.
I am Dutch and moved to Norway in 2015.
In Norway I could not find a Fazer forum but fortunately I found this forum 


Just now I have bought a used Fazer FZS600, 2001.
In the Netherlands I have had several motor bikes, most recently the Yamaha FJR1300.
I never expected to buy a motorcycle again ( I am 61 and thought “next life” )
But, blood creeps where it can not go 


I have found the Fazer 600 to restart.
Movie made by seller https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMaUTzzDNnI). 
As already mentioned, my previous bike in the Netherlands was a Yamaha FJR1300 and they run like a sewing machine.
[color=-apple-system-label]This Fazer has much more mechanical noise.[/color]
At first I had doubts that there was something wrong with the timing chain or clutch but the seller assured me that it is in perfect condition.
And, I have 2 months warranty.


What do you think?.

I've just returned to the Fazer fold after buying a 2002 reg FZS600s and it has a factory fitted belly pan. Is it possible to fit crash bars and the belly pan at the same time. Thanks in advance.

Looking for some ride suggestions around The Wirral area / North Wales with a good mix of roads and scenery.

Ok, well, my MOT is due in 2 months.

I will definitely be needing a new rear tyre... It got plenty of meat on it at this time, however I dont see it lasting as I am piling on the miles.

The thing is, that I have been out of the 2 wheelers scene for a good few years and I have been riding my trikes.

This is due to me having a nasty bump and so I am slightly paranoid about coming of again, and this has made the center of my tyre just a tad on the worn side, while the sides are meatier than a butchers bin, and this has made the tyre almost look like a car tyre.

I was thinking about these dual compound tyres that some people seem to mention.

What is the actual facts about them?

I am no racer, I am however a fat git.

I currently have mitchelins on both front and back, and the bike has a built-in magnet that seems to make it attracted to lines in the road, and so I plan on avoiding mitchelins.

My Honda ( another impulse buy ) has Dunlop and they are lovely and round, however, they are slippy as heck and I am terrified of  riding that in the wet.

I just want some input really, if anyoen can offer me a good long life tyre?

Hi, I used to be here years and years ago under this or a similar username. Couldn't remember the account details, so created this new one.
Still got the 2000 Fazer I've owned from new, suffering from a little gravel rash now though.
