Hey all,

Helping out a friend with this posting, mate's recently passed away after a brief battle with Cancer, and I am helping his wife sell his Fazer.

I know its a bit cheeky signing up for a forum just to sell a bike, but Steve would have been keen to see the bike go to an enthusiast!..

Any ooh details as follows.

MY-09
Blue Fazer S2 FZ6 - Bought as an ex-demo bike, so currently 2nd owner, however it was still in the shipping crate to the shop when it was registered to Steve.

In the 2.5 years of ownership, it's only done 4000 miles, and pretty much 99% of this has just been on local short ride out's with me..  He was fanatical about looking after it, therefore its never been ridden in the rain, and is kept in a spotless condition..

I don't know what else there is to say about it, it hasn't had its first MOT yet and its Tax runs out early next year, although its currently on SORN.

The bike is Essex based, and I am handling all inquiries on behalf of his wife, as you can imagine this is a difficult time.

She's asking £3750, not for the money but the principle that Steve loved this bike, and although there is some flexibility in the price she wouldn't want it to go too cheap.

Feel free to email me through here if interested or phone/text 07809 879982 (Alan)..

Ride safe!

I think I wrote about it in the old forum, but not sure.

Anyway I found that 170/60 is the recommended size for 5" width rims (like the ones of our fazers) by the tyre manufacturers charts. 160/60 are for 4,5" rims like the ones of SV650. So Fazers came standard with a flattened tyre!

I purchased a 3,5" front rim from a Yamaha TRX850, which will allow 120 front tyres (thanks to the mate HybridYZF for the advise). Soon it will be installed and I will report how it goes but the rear tyre is still quite fresh so it will took a while before I change it.

So I ask anybody to try a 170/60 and tell us how it goes

Thanks

Undoing suspension linkage bolts today to grease the bearings and swap out the shock for an R6 one (Ohlins needs a service) and I managed to wrench the bike off the centrestand.  :o

Heave-ho with a 17mm spanner on one of the dogbone bolts and before I knew it, bike had rotated over the fulcrum and down she went on the right side.  Good job in a way 'cos I was lying on the left ... mind you, I'd have taking a few bruises to save the Akra can.  Crash bungs prevented any damage to bodywork or tank but the can fell onto the shaft of a hammer.  Doh!  :\

I think I'll be able to do a cut 'n' shut job to take out the damaged section.  Hope so.  Meanwhile, I'm feeling mighty clumsy and dumb ... note to self, R1 forks shift the balance point of the centrestand and make it easier to throw the bike over.

Must... go... next... summer...  :b

Hi guys, recently bought a red & black 2000 fzs600. Very good condition apart from a scratch on the tank. Its too big to polish out and its down to bare metal. Only fix would be touch up paint or a respray. Does anyone know the paint code for the red half of the tank and where i'd be able to get it from.
Thanks.

the nuts are very corroded and most have nothing to get a socket on them,i have got off ebay a nut splitter http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130558280374?s...1439.l2649 so now i do not have an excuss as to why i cannot get them off,a couple of weeks a go i also bought a tap and die set from lidle cheap,so when the nuts are off i can clean the threads up and i have some nice stainless cap head nuts to go on so no more rust plus as the end of the nuts are sealed the studs wont rust on the threads

Hi All,
Have just taken delivery of a 2011 FZ8. Not had chance to take it out yet as it was chucking it down with rain when they dropped it off and I have been working the last couple of days.
Hopefully, if we get a break in the clouds tomorrow I'll give it a bit of a thrashing! 
Any advice about aftermarket pipes would be appreciated.
