  Help fitting chain
Posted by: Ian - 26-12-11, 12:55 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (10)

Hope everyone had a good Xmas.


Had a bit of trouble riveting the "soft link" on my new chain. After hours of using what muscles I have I broke my chain riveter and although I caused an indentation on the ends of the soft links it was not enough to stop me being able to push the link straight back through.


The link is not hollow and I really can't see how any tool could cause it to flare enough to be safe. Has anyone else had this problem? I am thinking of buying a different soft link that is easier to flare.


Any tips appreciated.


Cheers
Ian


Photo shows the unflared pins!

Ayup chaps, ive about finished my little project till the new year ! its minta than mint, did i tell ya all i have a OCD  :o  and taking into account its condition and what id have to pay to get something in this spec, its alot of bike for not alot of money.

[Image: fazernearlyfinished002.jpg]


I brought some oberone heavy stainless bar ends and had em powder coated black no more vibs,i removed the stock fairing decals but it looked to plain so the decals you see, the fazer is from the fz8 and the red 1000-exup decals from ebay.
[Image: fazernearlyfinished007.jpg]


I cant make my mind up if i like the NRC engine covers! and the colour is a very slight shade different than the rocker so they may go back on ebay! or ill get the spare rocker i have colour matched, oh yeah i have some billet covers also coming from the states, i also had the front engine/frame brace powder coated black and all the little brackets that cant be seen in the pics.
[Image: fazernearlyfinished003.jpg]


Timing cover needs re-powdercoating as i did not clean the bolt holes enough  :\  and so when i put the bolts in i got a hairline crack in the powder so only fitted for pics, and i removed the genuine yam crash bungs and replaced with the moto ones and whilst i had everything in bits i polished all the stainless bolts.

Carbon rad covers now fitted.

  Which Hugger (Gen 1)
Posted by: PieEater - 25-12-11, 12:22 AM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (12)

Want to get a hugger (black) for my 2001 Blue Gen1 have had a look at the following but none of them really float my boat in terms of looks but it's hard to imagine them on the bike from the limited photo's I've seen;

  • SkidMarx
  • Pyramid
  • Puig
  • Powerbronze
Any reccomendations or ones to avoid? Skidmarx are having a 20% off sale which makes their Carbon Fibre offering more affordable though I'd rather have something understated than flash.

  Motorcycles in bus lanes - be careful what you believe!
Posted by: Farjo - 24-12-11, 06:56 PM - Forum: General - Replies (5)

TfL say that from 23 Jan 2012 motorcycles can use more of London's bus lanes: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/redroutes/10151.aspx.

The way they've written it - "motorcycles will be given permanent access to bus lanes on the majority of the Capital's red routes" - makes it sounds like we're allowed in most bus lanes, but if you look at the maps you'll see that this isn't the case.

Therefore you should be careful to check the sign at the start of the bus lane for the bike.
[Image: motorcycles-in-bus-lanes.png]

The maps also show that some bus lanes switch between being bike-allowed and disallowed at different points, so if you're riding along that road you will need to be vigilant to the signs so you don't get caught riding in a non-bike stretch of the bus lane.
