i need to change my sump pan on my 51 plate fzs, seen one at a breakers online and it came off a 2000 plated fzs, is there any difference in sump pans between 2000 and 2001? i doubt it but im no expert? TIA
hi all anyone know the paint code for a 2003 Fazer 600 it’s the red colour possibly called vivid red, or where could I find the info possibly it may be on the data badge?

[size=1em]So this Summer I fitted my new Delkevic full exhaust and today the K&N air filter arrived along with a Colortune! (American spelling of colour of course :b )[/size]
[size=1em]Whilst the tank was off to fit the new air filter I figured I'd re-balance the carbs and hook up the Colortune. As for balancing I'm pretty sure I've got some air getting in at the connection points on the boots for the Vaccuum gauges. I have cheap Chinese boots and the balance gauge connection posts can easily be pulled out. But I digress.[/size]
[size=1em]I connected the colortune reasonably easily, fired it up and I couldn't see anything at all. Maybe my idle is too high or it was too bright out but it was a pretty dull and overcast day so I don't really know what's up. All the videos online seem to show a really clear burn on the colortune. Whats more, the colortune kept arcing to the head, this didn't seem too safe so I took a quick video, put the nromal plug back in and decied to retreat to ask you all once again for your sage advice.[/size]
[size=1em]I tried with the 45 degree mirror attachment thing but that didn't help either.[/size]
[size=1em]I have noticed before, when I was removing plug caps with the engine running, that it was very easy to receive a shock through the HT leads. Is this normal? surely it's all well insulated?[/size]
[size=1em]Also a couple of pics of my spark plugs directly after removing if the FOC-u gurus wouldn't mind casting your eyes over them. This is after warming up, in neutral only, going up to around 3500 revs.[/size]
been a biker for 1000's of years... :rolleyes ....have a blackbird with gravel rash...(winter project)
so to tide me over I bought a15k mile 04 F1, not knowing anything about them other than they were top of the recommendation list
compiled by friends..I'm pleasantly surprised.........it goes like stink...complete lunatic over 7k revs.
now I'm use to going like stink because the blackbird goes like stink but I suspect the F1 would be a little quicker to 100
before the xx took over all the way up to 180.. :eek ... think by now you may be getting a clue as to my user name :evil
thing is.. I don't know anyone else with an F1 so..if anyone would like to meet up sometime for a blast.. preferable over wales way
let me know and well sort out a meeting place..
Not sure on price but my FZS600 is getting in my way and is not being used, done only a few miles past 2 years.
Needs front brakes sorting as starting to bind, not got an MOT....
19K miles on engine, has had issue where i snapped an exhaust stud, ended up with the cylinder head off to re-drill a blank opposite to allow exhaust to clamp, no issue since...some may recall the thread, i will never forget it
Any one interested would need to pick up and collect with a van, what would people say its worth, bearing in mind what it needs sorting....
- Braided Lines Hel
- Scoprion Exhaust
- Clean rear caliper
- Good chain
- Little bits of rust creeping in...
Will get some pics on later...not got time right now.
Also have an R6 shock that i got off a member here with the dogbones, so someone might want that, not on the bike right now, stock one is on...
Fed up of fellows in France flashing me because of my lights and with me slowing thinking it might be the police or cameras, I decided to make up my own Beam deflectors before I headed of to France this time
Standard over the counter beam deflectors are not really any good on the Fazers as it is the reflector which deflects the beam not the lens.
They worked a treat as the only time I was flashed was by another biker to warn of a police car stopped about a kilometer ahead, when I was tipping along a 'little' over the limit :eek on a back road heading to see Merlins Tomb and the Fountain of Youth.
Backed off to 90K and saw the car with no one in it and then saw two officers inside in the middle of a field talking to a farmer on his tractor.
