Seen this and its very much what i had planned but cant afford to do right now.
I have the doner fazer arm and the doner r1 arm ready to play with but thats it for the moment.
Anyone know who did this? i notice its bristol so thought it might be devilsyam but i think he choped his r1 brace and it wouldnt take the hugger section affter.
also welding on his stuff is normaly neater to

might drop seller a mesage and see if he wants to swap my 2 arms for his 1

In the beginning there was a fizzy. Then came 17 and a CB100n, i still don't know why but it got me through my test. Then came a z500, great fun but still don't know how i didn't kill myself on it. Then Thatcher's Briton didn't suit me and years of no money and bodging together crap bikes ensued. Eventually back on me feet, family, mortgage etc and enough cash to bye something worth riding led me to a 99 600 fazer, best fun I've ever had on two wheels. So there you have it my biking life story in a nut shell.
Bike's done a fare few miles, engine is sweet but handles like a pig now so I'm currently replacing head stock, wheel and swing arm bearings, rear shock is good and I've replaced the pitted leaking forks for some immaculate later ones, some new tyres and show me the sunshine.
So i will probably needing some help soon, if that's ok.

Hi guys, Im new to the Forum, I've had my 2000 FZS600 Fazer for around a year or so just having the occasional ride, its standard apart from an end can. It has been a Cat C right off in the past so i just repaired the seat panel and got it on the road. I'm just Starting to clean it up and gonna add some after market parts and pimp it up a bit so thought I'd do a topic and get your opinions as i go.
I have ordered some braided hoses and have some wavy discs in mind. Have also got all my service items including some iridium NGK plugs. Want to raise the rear end up and put a tail tidy on. There will be an overhaul of  the forks and there's some work to do with the bodywork as i have a dent in the tank and hole in the fairing then it will get a nice respray. I'll be using the bike to go to the Isle of Man in June so want it completing by then, If you have any comments or ideas please feel free to give me your input.  Thanks guys.

Am considering starting a small mail order business, running from home. I've got plenty of room for stock etc, but had a feeling there was a covenant on the property... Dug the deeds out, and sure enough there's one about not running a trade manufacture or business.

I've also heard that covenants can sometimes be easily removed - does anybody know if this is likely to be such a case? And if not, is there likely to be any real hassle over a small mail order business?

any got just the casing for the above clocks mine are cosmeticaly damaged but work fine just need surround

....what type of checks do you guys do, what and how do you look for things? (i normally do basic bearing checks)

Do you take a multimeter?torch?...how far do you go to check stuff out?

I ask as I'm looking at getting another bike soonish (keeping the Thou of course) and I'm going with a mate on Sunday as he intends on getting a FZ6. (anyone know about FZ6s? posted in the section but to no great avail)

Not used the bike in a month so flat battery.  I suspect terminal as i limped it through last winter by disconnecting the battery when it wasn't being used (the clock drains the battery). 


So how much is a new one for the FZS600 these days?  Any deals available that people can recommend?

I'm going with a friend to look at an 04 600 fazer as he is interested in buying it (I'm a thou man myself)

Details are :
Yamaha Fazer 600 (FZ6) 04 plate (2004)
16 valves 6 speed.
2 owners from new.
Liquid cooled.
Fuel injection
1479 miles from new.
After market electronic immobilizer.
Electronic display.
Electronic start.
Belly Pan.
Twin Exhausts under the seat above the rear brake light.
Never been rode in the wet.

Anything we should look out for? any tips,tricks or tests? (don't really know anything about these bikes)

actually...not some one on here selling it is it?  :lol

A quick one for the font of knowledge, I have the complete front off the bike to respray the clock brackets and fit a new fairing, whilst I,m in this far I am planning to change the fork oil, I use the bike for the odd Sunday blast but mostly just puttling about at the weekend, (nothing too spirited) question is what is the best grade of oil to fill the forks with. Is there some makes of oil better quality than others, all inputs welcome, thanks.
