Anyone know where I can buy "just" a head gasket for my gen1 ? Don't fancy buying a whole set if I can avoid.  :eek

This is probably a bit late but I've been busy.

Fazer Line Up.
In the past we've had some nice line ups usualy organised by either Trev (Polorbear) or me (KK). Last year was a bit of a shambles mainly because I got there a bit late and others had parked left right and centre and I couldn't be arsed to go round chasing people, and we certainly felt the wrath of Trev... Even though he was in Spain.

So lets make a bit of an effort this year because it does look good in the photos and I'm sure you'll agree. Be prepared to move your bikes - please.

I don't know if Paul has told the Museum we're coming (I hope you have hint hint) so hopefully they'll have a car park set aside for us. If there is no car park I'll see if I can get permission to put bikes on the front concorse as I have done in the past.

C U all there. Shiney side up. And I'm bringing one Mars bar for me.

Noticed there are a few new Scottish/white settler    members on here now.
Was thinking about a wee meet for fish suppers somewhere for old and new members that is handy for an afterwork run/meet/head home.

Any thoughts on this or possible meeting place ?

hi, got the bike out of storage for the first time this year today and found some cracking in what i think are the carburetor manifolds. i've tried to put i link to a photograph of them below but if that doesn't work i'll try and give a description. between the carburetors and the back of the engine there are four horizontal pipes about an inch or so long, they're rubberised and have a slight kink built into the design. what i want to know is if anybody has any experience of these. is it a protective layer cracking or is it more serious? do they need replacing asap and if so is it a big job? and could it be a sign of some other problems with the fueling perhaps? sorry for not being more technical but i'm still learning bikes and still have limited experience. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1...db75b8b2ad

Hi


Picked up my 02 bike on saturday and am having problems already.



Shifting up is incredibly difficult and i often have to re-engage the clutch and try again with quite a bit of force to get it to click into place.


This obviously isn't normal - should i take it back to the dealer or are there some quick fixes i could try? It's done 34000 miles and has some service history but not much.


Any advice would be really appreciated.

Hi all


Picked up an 02 FZS1000 on saturday and love it - not riden for 3 years after my VFR800 got nicked but within minutes i felt completely at home on the thou.


Very happy.


Appart form some gearbox problems which i will post about in the right place.

Hi all, I have just got a gen 1 1000 that has had ohlins fork springs fitted, problem is the preload is locking out at three rings from hard(both legs), I checked with ohlins and they are the correct springs, so any ideas why I cant screw out the adjustors to the 6th line?
