Hey guys.
It's that sad time of life when you have to say goodbye to your Fazer.
I had a bad year with her last year, two accidents and a spill, but I kept her going despite having a new daughter on the way.
Unfortunately, it's coming up to MOT time, and I cant afford to do the necessary to get her up to scratch.
I'm still using it as a run-around, and the engine still pulls well. She's got about 45-50,000 on the clock (i think) and has some cosmetic damage (including a dented tank).
I had to have the front sprocket welded on after the nut threaded it, and it probably needs changing.
I fitted some stainless downpipes and a beowulf can, but the can has a small dent and scuff, and the downpipes need a good polish.
The front right fork seal cover has now gone, and to be honest, I feel sad every time I look at her.
I want her gone. I'm not a mechanic, so I cant validate if the parts are sound, but I know how to use a spanner, and I've had the engine out before so I could check and replace the valve shims (with the help of a friend).
So i'm looking for about £400 (so i can embarrassingly buy a scooter to get to work) or I will break if there is enough interest.
Cheers for stopping by.

| Suspension upgrade advice |

Looking for some advice in regards to my 2000 Fazer's suspension, hope you can help. It has 34k on the clock and although it's actually not too bad yet, I think a suspension upgrade maybe on the cards this year.
I'm a light fella at around 10 stone or 65kg. Mostly solo riding on the road, though I take a pillion regularly. Not looking for a rock hard ride, just a refresh of the suspension so it's confidence inspiring when I push a bit harder.
So, for the rear - first of all, am I correct in thinking that NONE of the oem fzs600 shocks are rebuildable? Assuming it's not, I think my first choice is the basic Wilbers through MCT or Revsracing who'd fit it and set it up for me. An alternative is buying the basic Nitron, though I think I'd like them to set it up and fit it for me also.
As for the forks - I think I want to get them rebuilt & set-up by MCT or Revsracing. Is it worth spending another £100 on new springs or is a rebuild & a set-up by a pro enough?
This is all going to be pretty expensive! :'( Do you think it's worth spending £500+ and do you have any recommendations or suggestions? I'd be really grateful to hear them. Cheers!
