  Fuel gauge accuracy
Posted by: alexanderfitu - 25-01-13, 06:38 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (16)

Hi all


When I fill up fuel (to the bottom of the filler neck) my gauge will read over full for about 25-30 miles, then slowly read down to about 3/4 until it reaches about 120 miles, then it plummets tto the last quarter and then the last 50 miles reads correctly.


Is this a fazer thing or is my sender faulty?


Thanks all.

  alternative levers?
Posted by: stevierst - 25-01-13, 05:51 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (2)

I know that some on here have fitted the zx9 clutch lever to their fzs6 to make it adjustable, which I'm sure is an improvement. I've just fitted a set of cheap shortys to my fz1, and they're superb. Is there an alternative lever as a direct replacement for The fazer, as I'd like a set of shortys, and I can't find any anywhere without parting with stupid money!

  Moby phone time again
Posted by: Tiberius Onklevaart - 25-01-13, 04:16 PM - Forum: General - Replies (36)

So that is now coming on 2 years since I got the desire.

Long term? Not amazing, but overall decent. Not sure ill be back to HTC in a hurry.

So next.

Galaxy Note II


Reasoning:
Big SAMOLED screen (for smut, of course), quad core, 2g RAM, BELLS....WHISTLES.....


But mainly, the stylus. It will be handy for work, as I'd rather carry that around than a folder when carrying out inspections. Just load up the form and write down there and then.
Tidier desk etc etc.

Does anyone have one then?
What's it like in practice?

  Brum Bike Shed Meet
Posted by: purplebear7 - 25-01-13, 09:16 AM - Forum: Events, Meets, Ride outs etc - Replies (149)

Hi Guys,

Having already had some rumbles in the jungles over on the (slightly more adult) side  Smile  at the Fazer 1000 Owners Club about this years gathering of the clans near (not in) Birmingham.

Following up on some early questions .. and as per normal service routine .. I have posted my annual blurb for the benefit of all the Newbies who have hooked into these Fazer Groups over the passed year.  The intention is to give the new guys a general idea about who does what to whom, where, when and why  :eek .

Have a read below if you are not all together familiar with this event .. then watch for the date(s) to be set later on in the year.  It'll be here before you know it so do your best to get there .. it is often seen as the start of the biking season for many  Big Grin 

Cheers Trev.              _________________##________________##____________________


Oh Yes indeed ... The Birmingham Bike Shed  (National Motorcycle Museum) Clan Gathering.

I'm not sure if there could every be a better location for any National Annual Group Meet in the UK?

Perfectly located bang in the Center of England  (The actual 'Middle England' marker cross is on a traffic island  just a couple of miles south .. in the village of Meridian)

Really easy to Find and Access .. Junction 6 of the M42 and A45 (right on the NEC Island) and therefore as fair as it gets for everyone wherever they live .. can't help your post code .. where we live is where we live  :\

Every required basic facility right there on site .. Parking, Toilets, Cafe, Long curved white line for Photo Shot line up  :b  and of course The National Bike Museum .. it's bit hard to find all that in any one other place .. and it's open on Sunday!

As for the date .. always some chat about the weather and holding the meet later in the year .. but there are some very valid traditional 'reasons' as to why it's normally held in April .. no need for me to do the history bit again here. 

Main snag with moving it is always the same .. people go away for their family holidays and long haul bike tours in the summer.  No way we will ever keep everyone happy .. so it's still held in April.

As for the UK's 'seasonal weather patterns' .. these days things are about as predictable as a Mad Spanish Bull standing in the middle of the main road.  So shifting things to June (for example) is no guarantee at all that it will be a nice day on the day!  For this reason we have normally kept a Plan-B dry day as a back up the next week-end.

As for distances to and from Brum .. I (we) used to give out 'prizes' for the Longest Ride, all the Biker Babes and Bike Police members [img alt=smiley: grin width=15 height=15]http://static.yuku.com/domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/grin.gif[/img] .. a big fat Mars Bar. Lots of guys have ridden to Brum from Scotland and Cornwall .. I've done it myself from the Costa Blanca (without a Mars Bar  :\ ) It's what your Bike was made for .. ride it! 

As I no longer have my wonderful Gen 1s  :'( and am now very happy thanks on The Spanish Dancer .. my big Honda CB1300s, EZS Sports Sidecar Outfit .. I don't feel quite right about attending. However all Riders on all and any other make of Bike have always been very welcome .. so you can bring your mates on mopeds too. 

Anyway .. my main plans are done for this year .. I'm already all Booked and Paid for a nice little ride-out or two. 

The 2013 main event is a 4.000 mile round trip from Denia (here down on the Med coast) up to South Harris in the Outer Hebrides / Western Isles and back via a loop of Bonny Scotland all on my own .. no matter what the weather girl comes up with .. once again I'll just be gritting my gums and going for it [img alt=smiley: wink width=15 height=15]http://static.yuku.com/domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif[/img]. 

These days .. I can't afford or justify the 'crazy cost' type finances of doing another UK run before that one .. but it's not so far for you .. is it ?  8)

There you go then .. that's my Annual Blurb on the Bike Shed topic done .. your move people .. any questions .. and as always I'm here if I can help [img alt=smiley: ohwell width=15 height=15]http://static.yuku.com/domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/ohwell.gif[/img]

I've not been on the board much over the last couple of years but had a wee look tonight to see what the word is. Had a look at my profile and it turns out that I stopped lurking and became a proper foccer 8 years ago to the day  Smile

My life has changed so much for the better over the years and I'm proud to say a whole stack of you foccers played a significant part in shaping it, and celebrating in it.

Fantastic and fond memories of so many brilliant people.

So here's to the foc-u, the foccers and the foccing good times.

Gawd bless yurs all!

Parp! :moon
