Hi all,


I just signed up for this forum.
I am Dutch and moved to Norway in 2015.
In Norway I could not find a Fazer forum but fortunately I found this forum 


Just now I have bought a used Fazer FZS600, 2001.
In the Netherlands I have had several motor bikes, most recently the Yamaha FJR1300.
I never expected to buy a motorcycle again ( I am 61 and thought “next life” )
But, blood creeps where it can not go 


I have found the Fazer 600 to restart.
Movie made by seller https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMaUTzzDNnI). 
As already mentioned, my previous bike in the Netherlands was a Yamaha FJR1300 and they run like a sewing machine.
[color=-apple-system-label]This Fazer has much more mechanical noise.[/color]
At first I had doubts that there was something wrong with the timing chain or clutch but the seller assured me that it is in perfect condition.
And, I have 2 months warranty.


What do you think?.

I've just returned to the Fazer fold after buying a 2002 reg FZS600s and it has a factory fitted belly pan. Is it possible to fit crash bars and the belly pan at the same time. Thanks in advance.

Looking for some ride suggestions around The Wirral area / North Wales with a good mix of roads and scenery.

Ok, well, my MOT is due in 2 months.

I will definitely be needing a new rear tyre... It got plenty of meat on it at this time, however I dont see it lasting as I am piling on the miles.

The thing is, that I have been out of the 2 wheelers scene for a good few years and I have been riding my trikes.

This is due to me having a nasty bump and so I am slightly paranoid about coming of again, and this has made the center of my tyre just a tad on the worn side, while the sides are meatier than a butchers bin, and this has made the tyre almost look like a car tyre.

I was thinking about these dual compound tyres that some people seem to mention.

What is the actual facts about them?

I am no racer, I am however a fat git.

I currently have mitchelins on both front and back, and the bike has a built-in magnet that seems to make it attracted to lines in the road, and so I plan on avoiding mitchelins.

My Honda ( another impulse buy ) has Dunlop and they are lovely and round, however, they are slippy as heck and I am terrified of  riding that in the wet.

I just want some input really, if anyoen can offer me a good long life tyre?

Hi, I used to be here years and years ago under this or a similar username. Couldn't remember the account details, so created this new one.
Still got the 2000 Fazer I've owned from new, suffering from a little gravel rash now though.

I was looking for a new Michelin Road 5 rear tyre yesterday, and while searching i stumbled on this must have bargain.  :eek

As per title.......Cheers.

My fuel pump runs for ages(and noisy)exactly 5 secs every time I turn on ignition, I thought once fuel is in bowls the pump wouldn't need to keep priming


itself every time.

I read on here to test fuel pump you can put a finger over the outlet of the pump and turn on ignition, see if pump stops or carries on (pressure check)..


Did that yesterday and pump keeps running (priming ?) for 5 sceonds with my finger on outlet ..(exactly same length of time as when I turn ignition on..)


Should it stop more or less straight away with my finger over it , or run for a few seconds before stopping ??


Cheers

Reminds me of how I used to ride as a courier. Also, not just the UK where everyone wants to be in the outside lane???
