Anyone have any idea of the size clamps I'd need to replace the ones on my Gen2? Or can point me in the direction of where I could find out?
Mine are getting rusty so need to overhaul them all.
Also is it worth buying the shiney steel ones with bolts or stick to the carbon steel pinch ones?
Thanks

Greetings all,


Might anyone have any recommendations Based on experience for a decent replacement engine bolt kit for the Gen1 please? 
Mine is DPBM in colour and would prefer something close to standard please in colour.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Everybody - New member here...I have a 2004 FZS1000 and need to replace the rear tail tidy / licence plate holder (that also holds the rear indictors on).Does anyone have a spare they are looking to get rid of... or alternatively has anyone replaced one and can recommend what to get?  I've searched the web for specific FZS1000 replacements but can't find one... so looking at universal ones but don't know which ones are good / will fit!ThanksDamo

Today 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Bergen Belsen concentration camp. My Dad went over in the D- Day piroid and was one of the liberators of Belson.   

I had the engine out for a repaint and took all the engine covers off at the end of last year and have put it all back together this week and put the gear selector on and it won't shift up or down, it just feels solid. Can't think of anything I have done for this to happen.
Your help would be much appreciated.

Since I'm trapped at home during this lockdown I've decided to do a full brake strip and service. I've ordered new brake lines, seals, bleed nipples etc and I'm going to paint the calipers again.
I'm also looking at painting the bottom part of the forks (where the calipers attach to... ive included a picture from google) as mine are quite damaged from stone chips and I'm just wondering if I will need VHT paint for that section Or will normal paint suffice?

Well, being a self employed builder aint the best idea at the moment. Ive had to flog a bike to keep myself in running things money. good news is i flogged it too a rich mate, whos garaged it, not altered the log book and will give me a few months grace to buy it back once things are normal again. essentially, hes lent me two grand with my bike as security. I kept the xjr and the Harley as i use them both for me 'essential shopping runs'. you can only get so much in the xjr1300's tank bag, or the one the harleys rack, so most days i have to ride out twice. it keeps me sane and kinda takes the sting out of not having the fazer in the garage, so every cloud huh...
