hi, taken the back rack off my bike so i need a set of grab rails with the dampers if poss, not bothered about the colour i can get them sprayed.cheers breamcatcher

Never again will I use a dealer again!
Went to Jordans bikes for some new spark plugs , (ngk cr9e), for my gen1 1000 and they charged me £33.96 for 4.I am going to fit them tomorrow so I bought them even though I could get them off ebay for £10 less. I know dealers have overheads that ebay sellers don`t have but unless they start to compete more on price there won`t be any dealers in business in a few years.

Where's the chrimbo banner then?

I ride a '58 plate FZ1 Fazer and have had it for around 18 months during which it has beeen faultless. Last Tuesday, however, I went into town and found it had developed a weird misfire. When moving from a standing start or when filtering on a closed throttle, then opening up there was a severe miss as the engine virtually stopped then picked up, then stopped  and picked up again before flying off up the road. Disconcerting! If the revs are anything over closed throttle (ie 1800rpm) there is no problem. Had the fairings and tank off to see if a connector was making/breaking, especially the throttle position sensor, vac pipe adrift etc but couldn't see anything so opened them up sprayed with WD and reconnected all the ones I could see (except ECU) and went for a ride. Got to the end of the street, still the same. BTW plugs changed about 2k ago. Any ideas gratefully received before it goes to Mr Yamaha and my wallet takes a beating. No fault codes on the dash either. Baffled!


Ta very much in anticipation.

[font=]I have for sale my FZS600 Fazer, 99 T reg, Black, taxed and tested till March 2012, very low miles for year at just under14k, in really excellent condition for year. Sensible extras include fender extender, chrome rad cover and black crash bars all unmarked. [/font]

Full MOT and road tax history. Just put brand new Bridgestone 020 (£136) on the back and this has done just 60miles. Spent over £600 on a service, new fork seal and major carb clean out this year. Extremely rare to find an original one as good as this with ALL paperwork. [/font]
[font=]Dealers would love to have this on the forecourt at £1995/£2195 as they don't come up very often with this mileage and in such excellent condition. and they sell quickly. I would rather sell privately so a FOC member does not have to pay dealer mark up.[/font]
[font=]Recent August tour to Isle of Man- 1,000 incident free miles- didn’t miss a beat as always.[/font]

[font=]Why am I selling? Am 50 years old and want to buy a Gen 1 Fazer 1000 before I get too old![/font]

Hi Guys,

I am considering buying an electric chainsaw from Amazon .. including shipping to Spain (I need the instructions and stuff in English!)  The make and model is :-

RYOBI RC-S 1835 240v 1800w

We have a small wood burner stove and I need to cut logs not trees. 

Does anyone have experience of using this type of tool?  Does anyone have any advice or suggestions on the use of such tools (I am aware of the need for 100% safety).  Does anyone have any suggestions of an alternative make and model?


Cheers      Polar Bear

I've now got more or less everything I need to start fixing up the bike apart from the nose fairing, inner black surround and bracket to hold same.  Would prefer to put plastics back on the bike rather than a fiberglass fairing but don't to pay whats no doubt silly money for new ones.  On the off chance anyones done a street fighter mod and has the bits (maybe even the headlight aswell).  Its the 'fox eye' model in blue but any colour would do.

could be in trouble for this one,


got caught by a camera an on the 3rd of December on the A64 making a dash for the services with the wife as her IBS was playing up and she needed the toilet, don't have long when this happens didn't realise how fast i was going as the traffic was keeping up with me but was clocked at 100mph  :'(  so I think I am going to get a beating for this, all I can hope is that they take my previous record into account as I have never been done for speeding, or any other traffic offence before, we will see
