anyone going tonight  :b

tried everything, dremel slot, chisel/ punch, heat gun, hammering, got a little bit of it off, but by now if it was normal it should have peeled off, so it must be welded to the hub, any ideas to remove it ?

thanks

It passed on the Re-test


Took the cone out. The MOT testing guy didn't know what function they served. He reckoned that light beam patterns were usually negatively affected without them in. But obviously not with the Fazer. The adjusters worked. It was only the cone falling in front of the light beam that meant the beam pattern couldn't be adjusted properly. Saved  minimum of £95 for a second hand replacement unit. New price is obscene. Thanks for everyone's advice.

Has anyone seen this http://www.realrider.com/  thoughts about how handy it could be!  :eek

After winter storage my fazer doesnt seem to be running properly.

at low range going up hills etc when i lay the power on it coughs and splutters with a backfire.

i'm hoping a carb balance and clean will resolve the issue but i'm thinking it may be an electrical fault as my shed had a leak in it.

the bike idle fine and doesnt appear to jump too much.
i dont believe its had its carbs balanced in a few years and since then i've had new downpipes, new moto gp zorst and a k&n.

I didnt start the bike for a few weeks and when i did fire it i heard the fuel pump pumping for what seemed like an age would this knock the carbs out?

Hi Chaps, Just recently bought a FZS 600 (1998) S reg, done a few miles but is reasonable clean, in need of quite a bit of TLC though. Started with sorting the rear brake caliper, a right bugger (common problem I hear), getting new pistons and seals fitted.


This is my second one, recently I had a 1999 model, paint was a bit scruffy (DIY spray job by previous owner), but after I overhaulled all the brakes, fitted a Nitron Shock, Hyperpro fork springs & decent tyres (Dunlop road smarts) it handled reallly well.
Unfortunately I got a fantastic trade-in for a new Triumph Speed Triple R, so it had (Sadly) to go.

Got this one now for commuting etc, and am enjoying sorting it, as per the previous one (luckily I kept most of the goodies when I traded the first one in).


I have owned a lot of bikes over the years, and I must say that the Fazer is right up there with the best, I love em.


Cheers

When the fuel needle is deep into the red section, fill up the fuel tank before you end up pushing it to a garage!

Does any have the (or link to) parts list for the Mk1 Fazer (I used to have a PDF, but can't find it now)?

I may be going from Leominster, so if anyone going up form mid ,south Wales give us a shout.

I've got to take my bike home to Cornwall from Portsmout area on a trailer, some freinds of ours are kindly lending me a 3 bike trailer so i'll put it in the middle slot.

the question is, after hearing on here about damage caused when recovery people have fastened bikes down and bee a total novice, any advice of where to attach the straps to will be very gratefully recieved.

thanks
