  Polishing rims
Posted by: Fazer Jake - 23-04-12, 06:16 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (12)

  as my fazer rims are looking abit tatty i was thinking of polishing the rims only and keeping the 3 spokes black, luckily theres some markers to follow on the wheels 

I was planning to do it myself with sandpaper and goodold polish.

Is it a massive job with poor results?

  Any electronics boffins?
Posted by: Andy Clap - 23-04-12, 04:17 PM - Forum: General - Replies (14)

I have a flat screen monitor with a burned out component on the PCB at the power input.
It's so badly charred I can't identify what it is yet alone rating.  I'm guessing a resistor.
A long shot I know, but can anybody confirm from the pic if it would be a resistor on the power input, and guess at a typical value and wattage?  The input is 12V dc, the component appears to bo on the input to a rectifier which I guess is dropping to 5V.

  K TECH shock - SHOCK !
Posted by: pitternator - 23-04-12, 07:04 AM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (79)

I still cant quite believe this has happened, especially after all my glowing tributes to K Tech.....but the shock which was refurbished in march has failed !  :eek ...after just 3 hours on the road!
I only had the bike back together late  last sunday , didnt want to try it in the  evening rain, so only rode it first time on saturday, a quick 50 mile run, albeit at road legal pace , where it felt fine if a tad firm...now the rebound damping has gone, oil is leaking from the shock, and it makes a funny sheeshing noise when the back of the bike is bounced.The bike just bounces straight back up, not retardation at all of the movement... I still am gobsmacked at this.
You know I am even now suspicious if my forks have had the full treatment too. I was a bit unhappy at how firm they were yesterday,kicking off bumps, pretty much how they felt before the work....I backed off all damping , to see how the forks feel  , but the forks dont compress and rebound very fast at all...so much so I now wonder if they are still full of old oil !! Just how do I check if it has been done ?....at the moment I feel like insisting they open up the forks so I can see the oil is fresh ...at least that will prove somethinghas been done.
The real pisser is the time I have wasted stripping out the bike, taking the units to Ktech etc...at the moment , all for nothing. Luckily I have a spare OE ( refurbished ) shock which I can put on to keep the bike on the road, but I feel totally pissed orf !
