Going to work the other day about 60mph and suddenly the bike started struggling to climb the revs, thought it might have been a fueling issue but then the front wriggled a bit so I pulled off the mway and realised I had no front braking power :eek They were working up to this point as normal and noticed nothing irregular. The lines were changed to Hel braided lines in Jan and new pads were also fitted too. Anyone got any ideas they can throw my way? Had a look over them and saw no leaks or anything so I assume its master cylinder related? Cheers.

Just dropped the kids off at the local sports club this morning in Huddersfield. Waiting at the junction to pull out when along came 6 Lambrettas/Vespas with riders in full Mod gear AND in the middle of this 60s timewarp an FZ1 ridden by someone dressed in 'normal' bike gear.


I hope he wasn't going too far with them. 90 miles to Scarborough at 60mph and plenty of stops to let the engines cool down won't be much fun. Still, be good for fuel economy: might even get 200  miles before having to refuel

OK I know its not a Fazer but .......
I quite like the look of these bikes.
has any one ridden one.
I've ridden the old model and I have to say that they were gutless/bland.
but the new model I've read that its capable of 140mph not that I'll ever get to that speed but at least it indicate a much stronger bike than the old one..
the fastest I went on my old Fazer 600 was 120mph and that was a bit to fast for me.
I dont suppose it share the same engine as the Fazer?
anyway any comment ,info would be appreciated. john

Looking for a set of Fox Eye 600 mirrors to go on a Square eye because they will stick out further, am i correct?


any details on what I need to look for would be great, thanks.

its been awhile since I was on here,
can't remember what was my original forum name was?? maybe johnny or johnnyuk?
it was on the old blue coloured forum.
I used to own a FAZER 600 03 model bought it new.
I traded it in for a new er6f  yes a big mistake and regretted it since.
I've bought an old thundercat till I decide what to do as regard getting another bike.
anyway I'll leave at that so hello to you guys.

Im after a worn or damaged seat for a fazer 1000 for a recovering/reprofiling project on another seat i have.

Hi again peeps,


What it is I've spotted a smoked LED tail light for the fazer 98-03 And I'm just wondering if anyone has bought one and fitted and weather they could give me their opinion as to what it looks like and possible upload a picture so I can see for myself. I'm considering getting it bust as it costs £50 I want to try and see what it looks like first but surely it's got to look better than the standard tail light..


Also just one more thing, I'm currently and the beginning of the revamp of my Fazer for the summer. Managed to get me a 2002 engine with only 9,000 miles on for a great price as my engine suffered from the what looks progressively famous the more I read about it slipping second gear!! But I'm in need of a chain and sprocket set and don't really know where to start... What's the best you would all recommend??


Cheers guyss Will look forward to hearing from you  :b [size=78%] [/size][size=78%]  [/size]

I'm sure this has been asked many many times before but I thought I would ask again in an attempt to gain some recent feedback.
I have used the search feature on this forum & the general opinion seems to be the Bridgestone BT023 is favourite. Not bothered about wet grip as I tend to stay home when it rains but decent mileage would be nice. My Continental road attack has squared off after only 2K miles but I will admit to being very heavy handed with the throttle so can't blame the tyre entirely. I have a Sport attack on the front & never had an issue with grip from either. My wheels are due back from powder coating on Wednesday so could do with ordering some sharpish as the chap who is coating them has offered to fit my new tyres if I take them when I collect the wheels.
Can anyone recommend a good on line supplier of the Bridgestones please?
