After a tank cover. Bike is red, so red or black preferably - hopefully not too much of a wee smell either  :rollin


Got, one so no longer looking.

Thinking of putting a tail tidy on my FZ1 and wanted to get everyone's opinion on which one to get. I would also like to fit LED indicators too. It's a 2007 model.


Any recommendations?

Just brought a 2003 accident damaged Gen1 Fazer 1000 as I needed various bits for my bike and this seemed the cheapest option.
Fairing is beyond repair and I've taken the front brake calipers and exup valve for mine so far.


Headlight is all intact and appears in good condition as does switch gear, engine, carbs, etc.
So if anyone is after anything in particular drop me a message and I'll give you a price on what ever parts your looking for ?


For going to be stripping it over the next week or two and then list the bits on Ebay.
Obviously happy to offer you guys first refusal and a much cheaper rate than what will be going on Ebay.

Can anyone clarify the correct torque settings for the rear disk bolts? The service manual has contradictory information on this (not for the first time). On page 4-11 it shows 18 Nm, but on p 2-22 it says 23 Nm. I've just put new disks on and torqued to 18 Nm but am now worried they may not be tight enough. Rear bolts are M8 and front bolts are M6, so makes sense that the rear should be tighter.


Really don't want to have to take the bolts out and do it again - they are loctited in.  :'(

As my Fazer 1000 is up for sale, the rare Akrapovic titanium end can and link pipe are up for sale.  The link pipe is impossible to buy from Akrapovic these days as they discontinued the line some years ago.


Supplied with Akrapovic retention springs, carbon clamp and stainless bolt. 


Accepts all end cans with 60mm internal diameter.

Total weight of the can and link pipe is less than 2 1/2 kgs, lighter than any other option on the market.  Both are in excellent condition.


£230 plus £15 P&P.

Hi.  I originally joined FOCU around 2006 and went on Aberdare and Spring Meets a couple of times plus track days at Llandow.  I kept that well loved FZS600 until a year or so ago, having taken to an FZS1000.  These days I do less riding and more local stuff and the FZS1000 is a bit big for that. 


I've now come across a great condition FZ6 which I pick up tomorrow.  Yes, a 16 year old bike and I'm quite excited about it!  I do go to the Bike Show at Birmingham NEC, but there is nothing newer I really fancy owning.  I've ridden a few things but still love Fazer 600s.  So, I shall be looking forward to looking more on the site.  No big mods planned, but a good service, headlamps and exhaust (less of it!) will be the priorities!  All the best, Clive.


Not sure if it is possible or how to add photos so here is a link to me and the bikes:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/LDpPCvAHroir5mCe6

Hi,
hope someone can help me, I got a real good deal on a pair K-tech 8.0 springs.
I understand the usual recommendation is 8.5, but Im not going on track and Im old and slow...


Anyone who have any experience with K-teck fork springs?
Im 95kg in gear but old and slow on the street, what is the number on the original spring ?


Cheers
Roger
