Hoping sometime this month to get back on my Fazer after a shoulder opp looking out of the window its snowing and blowing a Gale.Last wk lovely bike weather.Just have to wait. :'(

hi
i think its time to change the fork oil on my fz6 as im  a large man (92kg) what weight would you recomend??

My Gen 1 ha developed a problem. It won't take throttle at about 2k revs. Feels like a misfire, but slipping the clutch gets it through and away.


Is this likely to be Exup or TPS?


Goes fine otherwise.

Just took the sprocket cover off for a bit of cleaning/inspection.  Found that the sprocket is only being held on by the tab washer.  I was a little surprised as although I knew of others having the problem it never happened on my previous Fazer.


Quick Google search found this excellent site and article...

Within 5 minutes I'd phoned the local stealer, they'd taken my details and submitted something to Yamaha.  Waiting to hear back to get it booked in and fixed.


Many thanks to John Silva for the topic.

Hello. New to the forum, looking to buy an FZ1S very soon. I'm between the UK and the Mosel Valley in Germany, where I run a bikers accommodation business.

Hello - new to the forum and looking to buy a 2006 FZ1s, 20,000 miles, standard other than a Power Commander. Before I commit to buying, just wondered what things I need to ask/check that are specific to the model? I'll do all the 'any bike' checks of course.
- does this model have the exup like the first gen? presumably I should ask if it has been regularly maintained?
- is it likely that the Power Commander is there to help sort the fuelling issues assocaited with the early FZ1S?
- any areas of specific issues I need to ask about?
Thanks

Had a thought this morning while eating my Cornflakes.
My old FZS6 has adjustable front forks and my new(er) FZ6S does not
While I am quite happy with the suspension of the FZ6, I was wondering whether the fork tops from an FZS6 would fit on the top of the FZ6S forks... I have sonfused myself now with all these FZ's :o
