My FZS600 was knocked over the other day but the only obvious damage was the throttle grip was loose, as that's what hit the road. Tightening those two allen key bolts on the housing just to the left of the grip, seemed to make it tight. However, I was on the motorway and suddenly the the grip became loose, this time not from side to side as previously but rather as you turned it. So you had to turn it much further than normal to get power. Managed to get home thankfully
I've taken a very short video that hopefully illustrates the issue. Would be grateful for any advice about how to tighten it up.
Nb those 2 allen key bolts to the left of the grip are tight. Also, the outer plastic around the cable (as it meets the grip) is cracked and looks terrible admittedly, but has been that way for a long time, so I don't think is the cause here.

I've just treated myself to a Cardo Scala Rider Smart H Bluetooth headset to match my HJC helmet. Great bit of kit but now I'm after a cheap secondary unit for my daughters helmet so she can speak to me on the odd occasion she comes out on rides.
Does anyone have any idea if you can buy just a passenger unit or will I have to get another one the same as mine?
Or is it worth picking up one of the cheap Chinese bluetooth comms units?? Have any of you used one of them? Or can recommend one

| Gen 1 Fazer Forks Compression Damper Adjusters Seized? |

Seen a lot of reports of these seizing up, I guess more than regular lube would prevent this. I bought my first Fazer only to find that both were seized. Given that in many ways this bike has been described as a very good package/collection of parts most of which works very well, I was very surprised how difficult it was to locate other bikes that might be suitable donors given that Yamaha does not list these adjusters as separate parts - you want new, purchase a complete lower fork leg!
If you are lucky you might be able de-seize them, hours of fun. One day trawling internet/e-bay spotted forks from FZR1000 and it looked very much like they had same adjusters - bit the bullet bought second hand lower leg with working adjuster - same dimensions, it fits........
I guess just in case buy and fit a pair of these - winner.
If somebody already has discovered and reported this then no harm done but if not, great, hope it helps somebody.
