  Cops doing a dangerous U Turn to catch a couple of bikes coming the other way
Posted by: Camshaft - 30-07-13, 10:44 AM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (8)

Going downhill (Sydney's Old Pacific Hwy,, Northern side of " Pie In The Sky " for any locals reading), if not Google Earth it, great piece of road.


One minute before the decent a cop pulled out well in front of me so I just kept riding behind him when we began descending which involves several medium corners. When rounding a left 2 guys coming up the other way lean't right over and absolutely flying came past us in the other direction, they were really flying!!! .........A couple of corners later the cop decided to do a U-Turn over the double yellows and in the process nearly took out a P plater coming up the other way. This poor bloke had his rear locked up and was leaving a trail of smoke.


I pulled over and spoke to a guy on a new looking Bandit 1250 who was stopped by the side of the road only metres uphill from this event.  I asked him "did you see that cop nearly take out the P plater" he didn't. If he was 10 metres downhill he would have a box seat.


I rode back up to the Pie In The Sky hoping to see the P plater to console him but could not see him.


Obviously some cops are above the law and want to put their foot down just as much as any bike rider wants to wind on that throttle. A onboard video could have made an arse of those cops. Tested my new tank mount for my  camera today. Works a treat ebay [size=78%]zahangzixing2008[/size] ( item number if works  [color=rgb(51, 51, 51)]180856042303)[/color][/size][size=78%] very cheap and very effective. No vibs very clear playback. Thick alumunium section for the FZS1000.[/size][size=small]

  GPR Ghost Exhaust
Posted by: Wardy2 - 29-07-13, 06:22 PM - Forum: General - Replies (7)

Thanks to the guys who replied to my last post, I'm now asking if anybody knows of or as these exhaust on their fazer (GPR Ghost). I have spoken to Beowulf and they cannot guarantee that their exhaust will not affect my throw over panniers, the Ghost exhaust allows me to retain the heat shield on my bike which as the under seat pipes by the way, or does any body know of other companies that do exhausts that allow you to keep the heat shields. As a second point I have seen online that some owners have drilled their stock exhaust to make it sound louder, that is the only issue I have with the bike is it sounds like an electric tram so I want more noise. Thanks.

  Sticking Throttle Cable
Posted by: adeejaysdelight - 29-07-13, 06:13 PM - Forum: General - Replies (12)

Advice please...


I have a 2000 model FZS 600. The throttle cable has been sticky for a while now, and on the last MOT the guy said to get it sorted before the next one.

When I open the throttle and let it go, it sticks. I stripped off the metal throttle cover and rubber goz and cleaned/lubricated the cable and all of the parts. I let the oil sit running down the cables since Saturday (till Monday) and they feel quite smooth. Soted, I thought. That is until I put the metal cover back on and tighten it. Then the problem comes back, possibly worse.

Obviously I can't leave these parts untightened, so where an I going wrong? Is this a common fault? And what can I do to resolve the issue, which I would like to do sooner rather than later as it is pretty dangerous.  :eek

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
