I am looking at the Kriega tail packs. Can anyone on here share their thoughts, good or bad on them. The one thing I was thinking was how well they fit on the pillion seat of an FZ1.

Cheers

Hi all, i have recently purchased a FZS1000 as a step up from my 600.
My initial thought was to keep it but the Mrs says no so it must go.

Bike Make : Yamaha
Bike Model : FZS600
Year : 2003

Price : £2100 ono

MOT:  28Th Oct 2012
TAX:  31st Jan 2013
Mileage : 18134 (may go up slightly)

Colour : Blue
Extras :  Meta M357T alarm/immobiliser, Hyperpro fork and shock spring upgrade (best mod i ever did but will supply originals if wanted), Chrome Crash bars, body colour rear hugger, light smoked screen (will include original blue one with sale if wanted), pipercross air filter.

Overall Bike Condition : condition of the bike is fairly good. a few scratches to bodywork but expected with the age of the bike i guess. mechanically very sound. normally starts without any choke and runs sweet.

Tyre/Chain/Sprocket Condition : Tyres replaced 300 miles ago to a set of Bridgestone BT023's, Chain and sprocket plenty of life left.
Service History/Receipts/Recent Service work : service stamps until 2007/14000 miles but receipts to show has been serviced. Has been sat in a local dealer for over 18 months and then in someones garage for about a year before that i believe.  serviced 400 miles ago with quality oil and oil filter. iridium plugs and did a Carb balance while i was there.

Bike Location : Milton Keynes
Any Other Relevant Info :  All in all a nice bike, it will be a shame to see her go but i cannot justify (to the Mrs) keeping both bikes. The bike is currently insured so would be willing to deliver if not too far given i have to get home again  :lol

I will get some pictures up shortly and add them to the thread.
Thanks for looking

A mate of mine is trying for a driving job but we need a covering letter. I've started but the old insperational juices have dried up...

so far we have:

Quote:I am a mature profession driver who has worked in a wide variety of driving situations during my career - from high speed ambulance driving to transporting spinal injury patients in as gentle a mannor as possible.

I have a relaxed and friendly mannor and I am able to stay calm in high stress enviroments.

Keeping it for now.

Abba superbike stand with the standard kit and the adapter kit for GSXR750 (think it fits quite a few sports bikes but other adapter kits are available, Ducati etc)

This product is still made by Abba and apart from some cracking on the rubber handle this stand is unused and in as new condition.

The stand can be seen on Abba stands site here http://www.abbastands.co.uk/product_details.asp?id=1

It retails at £91.25 so I'll accept £50 with free delivery up to 5 miles from RM8 area or Buyer collects.

Adapter kits are available from Abba stands

The front lift can be seen here http://www.abbastands.co.uk/product_details.asp?id=2

It retails at £56 and is in as new condition so I'll acccept £25 same delivery/collection terms as above.

Having a clear out and found the original can and link pipe wrapped up in bubble wrap at the back of the shed. It was only on the bike for a week and then the race can went on.

It was sprayed with WD40 wrapped up and tucked away along with the original chain guard in the race can box which it's still in.

I've still got my Fazer with about a million miles on her and still user her daily, I doubt I'll ever need the original exhaust though and as I'm moving house I need to de-clutter.

Make me an offer...

There's also a scratched alternator cover which I replaced after a drop and the chain guard, which can go with the exhaust for free if you want them.

Test rode a Cross Tourer at the weekend.
Lovely bike, silly prices, got back on my Fazer 1000 and thought.....  how stupid would I be to part with my Fazer - luvvin' it!  (even after blowin' a fork seal too!)

Are you out there?

The spring in my left foot peg has broken which I'm assuming I can't fix so has anyone got one lying around? Doesn't need to have the rubber on it as I can swap that over from the old one.

hi all
just need a bit of advise on poss clutch. i have noticed over the past couple of months, i have a wirring noise from engine? first thought it was the chain and sprockets. but these look ok. then i have noticed that while riding if i pull clutch in it stops? release the clutch its there straight away.. the biting point is spot on, changes gear great, and no slipping of clutch??  its just the wirring noise thats annoying me..  could it be a bearing that needs replacing???
