Hi, I noticed there were no breather hoses on my tank, so bought one off ebay which has a plate attached. Been looking in my manual and online, but can't find anywhere about where it attaches to and which of the 2 pipes it fits on.
Thanks in advance

Afternoon

So As Im looking at all the options when it comes to the forks on my FZ1, Gnasher reminded me that I could pontenially fit R1 forks on there.

So my question is, has any one done this? if so what model/year of R1 did they come off of? and were you able to use all the FZ1 running gear..? (mudguard, wheel, calipers, spacers, spindle etc.

I see 4th dimension are still upto thier useal tricks, I wonder how badly this owner got fleaced by them, as I cant see whats wrong with the bike -

So ive been having a look around online at fork refurb services, rechroming services, and before going to that route I thought I was ask on here if anyone has a set of forks in good contion that they want to sell.

Basically mine need new springs, new stanchions and news seals/bushes and all the refurbishing services I can find are getting of for being expensive. Even replacing just the parts myself isnt cheap. So hence looking for a good used set instead.

Hi All. I have the "tube" type grab rail on my gen1 and  was wondering if the alloy/colour coded grabrails seen on the later gen 1s will fit straight on?

Thanks in advance

So is me just being an old git? or does anyone else find the announcement/on-hold audio you get when you call most bike shops and dealers these days annoying and cringe worthy. Its like a DJ moonlighting as a cheap salesman, being over-exuberant, where 'Every Other Word Is Elevated In Pitch'. Which to me at least its disingenuous and fake, which is where the annoyance comes from. I'm calling a bike shop not a bloody radio station.

Bought a new Foxeye in 2003 and had it for 6 years. Bought a Tiger 1050 then a MT-09 Tracer (which I couldn’t get along with). Bought a BMW R1200RT which I still have. Yearned for another Fazer so bought a 2001 Boxeye and loving it.

I tightened my very loose head bearings

The castle nuts - bearing head and locknut with special washer don’t tighten down together tight

I guess it is the fork nuts and the yoke nut that keeps it all together?

Any one got an old double bubble screen for 2003 foxeye?

any condition, just want to mount camera etc to it, so scratched, or cracked etc I'm not worried.

Thanks

Clive

It seems that my last confession was in 2015 when I sold my 2009 fz6

After a triumph tiger 1050 and a Yamaha tracer 900 I am back

Just brought a very nice 2007 fz6 

Strangely I remembered my password to get in here - or maybe it is a too well used one and needs changing

Nice to be back
