Hi, quick intro 


My name is Michael and I am from Kent, I passed my test and brought a Kawasaki ER6 but I just couldn't seem to get on well with it so sold it and now own a 1999 Silver FZS600 and absolutely love it!!


Seems to be some great info on here and I look forward to reading some more!

How do chaps, in the near future, I'm hoping to buy some rearsets to fit on the bike, as I find the standard peg position is uncomfortable and I'm wanting something with a more sporty stance that suits my riding style.
Any one fitted them? What was the difference in riding position? Any recommendations?
Cheers

I'm a bit confused by the instructions for adjusting the steering bearing so I thought I'd check before I do anything with it. The manual seems to say slacken off the lower ring nut totally, then tighten it to 52NM, then slacken it off totally again and then tighten it to 18NM. Is that right? Page 3-36 of the 98 service manual. I guess the first 52NM tightening is just to pull everything together and make sure everything is lined up properly?

Please keep an eye out up that way.

Having an issue with one of my bikes.. In the morning when pressing starter the bike spins briefly then stops. When i press starter button there is a buzzing sound but the engine wont turn over. If i rock the bike back and forth in gear and press the starter it fires up. I tried shorting the solenoid this morning after it wouldnt turn over and it fired up? Question - is it starter or solenoid? it would appear starter 'rocking back and forth' and also solenoid 'shorting' 

Hi everyone,

Ok so I know that I have no posts but I was on the old forum http://pympster.u.yuku.com/

Finally getting around to selling my top sellerie gel seat (front and rear). These seats are amazing, I also have one on my GS now

Clearing out the cellar and realised I still had this!

Hi everyone. Just a quick introduction to everyone . I am just getting back on my 2002 Fazer600 after 1 1/2 years off it due to a spinal operation. It's running terribly at the moment and can't even kepp it on idle! Carbs are shot after the lay up! I've got it booked in next week to get the carbs cleaned if i can ride it there! ( it cut's out every time i stop ) Hopefully get it sorted as I'm due to do a 600 miler on the 10th! lol

I have won a Corbin seat for my fazer, but I believe it is the sergernt version so it only has the comfort part for the rider

I am preparing the bike for a euro tour next month. I noticed the other day that the 3rd exhaust bracket (sitting on the bike) that holds the down pipe to the cylinder head has snapped in two! Now both sections of the bracket are held onto the bike with their bolts, and the exhaust is securely fixed by the other three down pipes. Now I am wondering, do I take the whole system off and get the bracket welded before I go, or do I leave it as it is and keep my money for my holiday? I have a full Leo Vince 4-2-1 system with a carbon fibre can, so I have no intention of replacing any of it. It will be a repair. I won't be using the bike for another week or two anyway, so no worries there. It just whether its worth the hassle or not... Oh, and I can't get a decent picture of it as a result of its location.

Had an unfortunate incident where the Fazer got dropped and I ended in a ditch.  :o  Now I need parts to fix it up... :'(

Parts I need (all FZS600 BoxEye):
- Coolant pipes (The big one that goes across the front of the engine, and under the generator cover)
- Coolant pipe - the right angle bit of metal that attaches to the above coolant pipe, and bolts into the engine (behind the generator cover) FIXED
- A left hand stock mirror - BOUGHT OFF EBAY
- One cam cover


Hopefully the list won't grow...  :'(
