  New Bike :)
Posted by: deanflyer - 04-07-20, 04:03 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (12)

Not sure of the wheel colour, but it has had a ground up restoration and is immaculate. Better than the Gold one I was looking at Smile


Only issue is the odometer is buggered, LCD is damaged.

  Major mod query: FZ1-N to FZ1S front fairing conversion
Posted by: b1k3rdude - 04-07-20, 01:22 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (6)

So someone suggested this to me and I was like, as I have done an front-fairing conversion on an FZS600 in the past Im thinking the N-to-S should also be possible.
So parts off the top of my head -

  • Front fairing - 3C3-Y283G-0P-P4 (black metalic)
  • Windscreen - 3C3-28381-00
  • Mirrors - 3C3-26290-10/3C3-26280-10
  • Sub-frame - 5D0-28356-00
  • Headlight - 3C3-84310-10
  • subloom - 5D0-84359-00
  • Infills - 3C3-2836L-00/3C3-2836K-00
  • infill brackets - (left-3C3-2836A-00/3C3-2834F-00) & (right-3C3-2836A-00/3C3-2835U-00)
The clocks look identical (FZ1-S - 2D18350050, FZ1-N - 22C-83500-10), so I will assume can be retained and mounted to the FZ1-S sub-frame with the relevant hardware.

  FZ6 won't start
Posted by: Grahamm - 03-07-20, 06:01 PM - Forum: FZ6 / Fazer - Replies (32)

After doing a bunch of work on my FZ6, yesterday I took it for a ride around the block and everything was working.


I got home, picked up some stuff, tried to start it and... nothing Sad


I switch on the ignition, press the starter and I can hear the relay click, but it won't turn over. I have had this problem before and usually if I put the side stand down and flick it back up so it gives the bike a jolt, that sorts it out (or, switching it off and switching it back on again...!)


But none of these are working now, however if I bump start it, it runs fine.


The side stand switch and clutch switch seem fine and the neutral light on the instruments comes on.


I wanted to check the neutral switch as well, but I can't actually find it! The Haynes manual says it's "on the back of the engine", but the accompanying picture is useless and I can't identify any of the components in it to figure out where the switch is supposed to be Sad


Can anyone suggest a solution or, at least, tell me where the neutral switch actually is (preferably with a useful picture!) so I can eliminate that? If the problem is none of the above, I may have to try removing the starter motor and checking that out... Sad

  Chainmate
Posted by: Rob R - 02-07-20, 08:57 PM - Forum: General - Replies (3)

Read a review of the Chainmate (http://www.chainmate.co.uk) in August's Ride Mag. and decided to give a go.  No overspray, no bits of greasy cardboard- does exactly as it says on the tin. I think I should recover the £23 in savings on chain lube, but it may take some time!Great piece of kit & highly recommended.Rob

  FZS600 Update
Posted by: deanflyer - 02-07-20, 12:23 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (12)

So I posted a few months ago about getting an FZS600. Coronavirus has got in the way of everything including my bike test, but I do have an update on the bike.


Due to lockdown I haven't seen the bike yet. Off to view it tomorrow. It was finally MOTd yesterday with no advisories. It has had a service including ultrasonic carb clean/new rubbers. Friend paid £350 for this, so he is now asking £1400 for the bike (was £1150 originally).


I'll get some better photos taken tomorrow, but here is an old one of it.

  Renthall 758 ultra low bars
Posted by: steve65 - 01-07-20, 04:28 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (11)

I’ve researched replacement bars as I’m used to a wider slightly straighter bar on my Guzzi Griso and I Had Ultra Lows on my old ZRX1200R so that’s the direction I’m going in.  I won’t be near my bike for a couple of weeks but want to order the bars.  As they are a little straighter can anyone who’s done this swap tell me if there’s any possibility with a fairing clash or is there plenty of space.


Ta much.

  Foccer font of all knowledge - Sticking acrylic
Posted by: Grahamm - 30-06-20, 09:12 PM - Forum: General - Replies (7)

I want to create a watertight case made from clear acrylic (about 2 foot long by 2" wide by 4" high), but I'm after some advice on how to seal it.

Yes, I can buy acrylic glue,but it's ludicrously expensive (about £20 for a small container) and that would cost twice as much as the materials Sad

Given the size of it, using some form of caulk or sealant wouldn't really be feasible because it would be very difficult to get it into the interior.


So can anyone recommend an alternative that would work?
