Hi!


Any ideas what could be wrong? It happens only at about 2000rpms. I cant notice it in neutral (when just revving), but in all gears when driving.


Sound like "DRRRRRRRR" and you can both hear and feel the "knockering vibration" in those low revs, and just when touching maybe 2500/3000 rpms everything floats like a boat again...


It is fitted with a sport exhaust, and I dont think it is retuned in that regard. Could it "just" be in need of retune or maybe carburators need syncing? Im pretty new in motorcyckling so i dont really know what to look for. I have just checked the front sprocket and everything seems ok there. There is new chain and sprockets all over...


I might mention that i feel there is a lot (to much?) slack when going on/off throttle/shifting, but chain and all seems to be within limits. I have not checked the cush drive rubbers.. (my thought).


Any ideas?

In ancient Greece (469 - 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom. One day an acquaintance ran up to him excitedly and said, "Socrates, do you know what I just heard about Diogenes?"

"Wait a moment," Socrates replied, "Before you tell me I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."

"Triple filter?" asked the acquaintance.

"That's right," Socrates continued, "Before you talk to me about Diogenes let's take a moment to filter what you're going to say. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"

"No," the man said, "Actually I just heard about it."

"All right," said Socrates, "So you don't really know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about Diogenes something good?"

"No, on the contrary..."

"So," Socrates continued, "You want to tell me something about Diogenes that may be bad, even though you're not certain it's true?"

The man shrugged, a little embarrassed. Socrates continued, "You may still pass the test though, because there is a third filter, the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about Diogenes going to be useful to me?"

"No, not really."

"Well," concluded Socrates, "If what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me or anyone at all?"

The man was bewildered and ashamed. This is an example of why Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem.

It also explains why Socrates never found out that Diogenes was shagging his wife.

lo' everyone. I'm Ollie.

Just picked up a tatty (well used..!) old FZS600 last week that I'm going to restore back to her former glory! Riding on the restricted license at the minute sadly but looking forward to getting out and about on the Fazer nonetheless.

Looking forward to getting involved in the Foccer community 

I'm going on our darts team day out to Ayr races tomorrow. 9am start, vodka for breakfast etc etc then the minibus driver phones Beth to come and pick me up sometime between 10pm and midnight  :z :\ :o .

Is there anyone in 'the know' who can advise me on a winner please.

Cheers, Russ

Anybody on here going ?

as i play in a brass band, i'd love to be able to go to rehearsal on my bike (fortunately i play the cornet not bass!)
does anyone know of a tail pack or similar that would hold my cornet ?
needs to be 400x350x170mm minimum.
i'm tempted by the hard luggage (givi, etc.) but i can't justify the expense.
any help would be appreciated

In a moment of drunken ebayery a couple of us bought a Soundracer V8
Like the one seen here:
Shonky and the SoundRacer V8

It was a laugh for a few trips in the VW Polo - sitting with the stereo on 10 and watching the looks of people as th V8 burbled away. The downside is I will probably knacker the ancient engine driving around in the lowest gear possible.
We paid £30 posted - so who wants it next? £20 posted sound fair? Its in perfect knick so grab a silly bargain.
