Why commuting by motorcycle is good for everyone.

Quote:Motorcycle riders don’t just save themselves time and money, they do the same for car drivers, and they also help to reduce the emissions of cars.


Well, this is a surprise, isn't it, boys and girls? Commuting by bike takes up less space, uses less fuel, causes less congestion and means you get there quicker! Who would have thunk it?

Of course there's a need to use the proper safety gear (and, preferably, get yourself some Advanced Training too Wink ) but this is just saying what every two-wheel user has known pretty much since traffic levels started increasing.

Now all we need to do is get the bureaucrats (and Eurocrats) to stop playing silly buggers and make it *easier* for people to switch from four wheels to two, stop introducing petty (and useless) regulations on what you not allowed to do to your bike and requirements for Hi-Viz and, most importantly, recognise the benefits of bikes and consider them for VED exemption since they are even better for reducing congestion and pollution than sub-1 litre cars.

  Charging Issues, help!
Posted by: benji - 23-05-12, 12:51 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (5)

Hi all, new to the site, only been a FZS 600 owner for a short time, 9 months in fact. Bike is a mint Y reg, 10k mileage and no problems up to now.

I have no idea how long the battery has been on the bike and sort of guessed it may be shot after the winter. I charged it up and the bike ran fine but then it went flat again after standing for a fortnight. It was then charged up and I went to the local battery expert shop who has all the testing gear, although I was a bit dubious he was more car expert than bike! He reckons the battery is okay but after riding for 1 mile and doing the ten minute test (starting the bike around 5 /6 times, it would then not turn the starter and I had to jump it?!

I am a bit confused really at how quickly the battery power was lost. My old FZR 1000 would still turn over and start if I didn`t use it for months and could easily start up for numerous times in a ten minute period. Here are my questions I hope I can get answers to.

1, The bike is fitted with a immobiliser, how long would it take for this to drain the battery if not used?
2, If the battery is okay, will it be the generator or how do I know if the regulator/rectifier is also okay?
3, I have heard the charging system on the earlier bikes is not too clever anyway , is this correct?

I would really appreciate any help experienced owners could give. I`ll happily spend money to sort it, just don`t want to get the wrong replacement parts :rolleyes .

  MOT pass or fail?
Posted by: chaz - 23-05-12, 12:34 AM - Forum: General - Replies (6)

Well my bike passed the mot test this week, in fact I haven't had a bike fail (although I do check them over) unlike cars I've had maybe only 50% to 75% pass rate, the car failed on emissions this time due to exhaust leaking.

What is your pass rate????????

  Jack up kit fitted. Can YOU spot the difference?
Posted by: know your limitations - 22-05-12, 08:29 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (11)

Ordered a 25mm jack up kit and just finished fitting it.
Wasn't sure if it was wise to do it after work as I could have buggered it up and left myself without wheels for the morning.
Anyway, all went well with no dramas and I quite enjoyed doing it. Even cleaned and re-greased bolts, bushes and bearings.
Old dog bones centre of hole to centre of hole were 144mm. New ones c2c were 140mm.
Just sitting on the bike, suspension feels a touch firmer (good) but not ridden it yet.


If I'm honest, I'm a little underwhelmed as I can't see any real difference to the profile of the bike and my feet seem to touch the ground to the same degree as before, so can you guys spot the difference?


Before and after shots below (not necessarily in the right order). Didn't replicate camera angle very well though, sorry.
