  Disconnecting the alarm on my 2001
Posted by: fordlatch41 - 31-03-20, 02:51 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (6)

has anyone managed to disconnect the alarm on a 2001 model,and got it running without,  took my alarm off today(meta, so non original Yamaha) but then I was left with 7 black wires all with a silver band on them, one of the wires comes out of the ecu, the others come out of the main harness, 3 are live with ignition on and 3 are not live. Question is what wires need connecting/ taping up to get it running again.

  COVID MOT extension - clarification
Posted by: Farmboy81 - 30-03-20, 10:07 AM - Forum: General - Replies (11)

Good morning all, hope you're all ok.


I was just wondering if anyone knew any more about the 6 month extension to MOTS (as below)? Mine's due May 2nd, so will be extended to November 2nd, but does this mean that when I get my MOT done (e.g. in October) it will run from November 2020 to November 2021, or will it be that no matter when it's done it resets to May 2nd? Not the biggest issue I know, but I can't seem to find any information on this.

Hope that makes sense!

  Hand sanitiser - alcahol free
Posted by: Captain Haddock - 29-03-20, 08:48 PM - Forum: General - Replies (8)

  We got a load of hand sanitiser delivered at work the other day, it seems there's a lot about that is alcahol free using benzalkonium chloride as it's active ingredient.
As soon as I heard alcahol free alarm bells started ringing so I got round to looking the stuff up today, it seems that although it claims to kill coronavirus and cites european centre for disease prevention and control the only mention I can find is relating to canine coronavirus, a related but different strain that is of no threat to us whatsoever, the american centre for disease control states the active ingredient as unreliable for covid19.
If you are using this stuff check the ingredients and don't let it lull you into a false sense of security, it 'may' work on covid19 but there is no evidence that it will and washing your hands with soap will likely be far more effective, a little knowledge is indeed a dangerous thing!
I can see a lot of folk using this stuff in place of washing hands, DON'T!
And no your 80% proof vodka won't do it either as it's only 40% alcahol, you need at LEAST 60% to be effective.

  Rear Brake refurb
Posted by: fazersharp - 29-03-20, 03:26 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (127)

I was going to change pads and fluid and line after my MOT in April - after the MOT in case I potatoed the caliper. I now have anextra 6 months so am doing now.  I have read the various posts and advice but thought I would start my own as I have a few questions.I will be using a hel line and on the website it mentions black stealth heat shrink on the ends as an option. I actually think it looks a bit messy and my new line will be clear stainless steel but on the rear is there any reason to have the "stealth heat shrink.

  • what is peoples opinion on hel stainless steel bleed nipples and what size do I need.
  • Will 500ml of fluid be enough to do the job - even if I have to struggle with bleeding.
  • What fluid to get - any make better than other.
  • Pads SBS ceramic I see have been mentioned. I don't want anything too sharp on the rear
  • seals webmoto Ebay or fowlers.I read it can be hit and miss with pattern ones but is that still the case.
A reminder for those that do not know. I have had the bike for 19 years 23k on clock and the last 19k of them have been dry ones only. Bike garaged. The rear calaper was last serviced at 8k in 2002 pads fluid and seals ( so the receipt says )
