will the bigger 22 litre tanks fit on a 98 model bike?

mine has the 18 litre tank, and that extra gallon would come in massively useful when im doing min. 400 miles a week!

Alright troops...new member here.....I have a 2004 FZS1000.....just about to put on an Ivan Jet Kit, any one there done this and what results did you get....Cheers BBB

Contract is up later this month so am thinking of upgrading to a smart phone, which may cause confusion as I have been using a Nokia 6230i for the last 6 or so years  :lol
So, which one to go for? Once I have a good idea of phones then it's search the best tariff time. Currently with o2.
Are they all much of a muchnesss, or are iPhones the one to have?

I've been lucky enough to have been selected to work in London for the olympics as part of the Military security team.

not sure where I will be based and we are been taken there by bus. I intend to pick my bike up and then ride it home to Cornwall, or thats the aspiration however I have never riden in London. I have driven cars & mini buses so know that you have to have your wits around you.. are there any tips or words of wisdom that anyone can impart?

Hi,

I’m new to the site and new to Fazer ownership. I’ve just got a black one on a ’98 plate. I like this bike alot! I was late into biking passing my test at 47 that was nearly 4 years ago (I’ll let you do the maths). Previous bike was a Ducati Monster M900. I've already found some good helpful stuff on Fazer ownership on here.

Anyone tried  the Metzeler Roadtec Z8's on a Fazer Gen 1 yet.
Read some good reviews.
Thought I might try them as my 023's are now shot.

Stainless steel. Not for road use. Good sound but not excessively loud. Used but in good condition and has a few scratches but no dents.

Looking for replacement exhaust end & protector for a Fz1n 06.  There currently silver, not a big fan of those silver parts or the exhaust so trying to tone it down or maybe carbon it.  In fact l'm trying to get rid of all silver from the bike.

Well thats me survived the first week of fazer ownership and im happy with it. So far so good  .
Stuck a new pair of tyres on yesterday went for pirelli angel st in the end and have done just over 100 miles will have to see how they go but seem pretty good so far.
Also fitted a powertech can and link pipe with the baffle fitted its not much louder than stock and hasnt affected the running any. Pulled the plugs and they look the same colour as with the standard can. The baffle is riveted so need to break out the drill before i can see what its like with it removed. The can itself seems pretty well made especially at the price £125 including link pipe and clamps.
Cheers Allan

After no luck with Yamaha seeming to know anything about 9mm/12mm sproket nuts I've been and bought one from my dealer who I'm quite impressed with, as they also coudn't seem to find any info on it but 30mins after I'd left the shop they rang me to say they'd been on the net and found the part No on a forum??? They also had one in stock.      So I'm planning to swap nuts this weekend and if I'm correct old one was tightened to 70Nm and the new one is 90Nm but why if they both do the same job do I need to tighten the new one more? I understand why it's capable of more but not why it needs to be tighter. Do any of you who have changed this nut before have any suggestions.

Cheers Andy
