Hi everyone.  I'm new here and will be looking some help over the coming months to rebuild my beloved 2002 FZS600.  A couple of months ago now I lost an argument with a turning car and went from the proud owner of a lovely bike to the proud owner of bits of a bike.  OK the damage aint that bad its all front end.  Forks, nose fairing, lights, clock, handle bars, mud guard, radiator etc etc.  So my winter plan is to rebuild.  Will post pictures of the progress in the forums.

Old site to new, though not been on for a while. I'm 62 and live in Altrincham, Cheshire and I have an '08 FZ1 with full fairings, full Akrapovic, double bubble, Scottoiler etc and commute daily into Manchester. Like to get out to Cheshire, Wales and Yorkshire at weekends (not all at once!) Rivvy Barn, Squires and Devils Bridge. Had an FZ6 for quite a while and upgraded to the FZ1 about 2 years ago. Great all round bike, went 2 up with top box/panniers to the Ulster GP in August and the bike was brilliant.

Hi guys

Im putting my 99 fazer back together after a crash in july  :wall , doing a lot of mods, one of which i want blue samco hoses for the radiator.

I got in touch with samco, who put me over to Race bike bitz, as some of you may be aware, they dont make kits for the 600's but if i can drum up at least 10 people wanting kits, Samco will make the kit.

Having at least 10 orders covers the machining costs.

So if anybody is intrested, please send me a PM and we can hopefully get kits for our bikes!  :thumbup

They estimate the full kit will be £100-£110, as the kits for the Thou are £130.

Hi does anyone know if Alpinestars' boots generally come up wider than TCX or if they come up wide in general. If not anyone know any boots at all that I can get in a size 49 or 50 (EUR) that come up quite wide? Preferably sports tourer / sports style.

I'm having a lot of trouble getting anything that will fit me at the moment. Decided to go down the mail order route since no shops seem to have my sizes. First I got some Spada's in a 47 which were too small both in terms of length and width. Now I've just got some TCX S-Zero's and they feel a bit too tight width ways on one foot (just keeping them on for 30 minutes). Considering the amount of money I've paid for them I've prefer to send them back and pay a similar amount for some that are completely comfortable!

Eyup, have any of you fitted a ’99 R1 (4xv) full exhaust system to a Gen 1 Fazer 1000 ?

I’m thinking of going down the full-system route with my Gen 1, and I might be able to get my hands on a ‘99 R1 full Micron system.

Any help and advice appreciated.

Cheers, Fletch

we were out at the flics tonight (at Linwood for the locals), the easy way home by motorway was closed for repairs, the detour taking us round the arse end of Paisley and back towards the airport to rejoin the M8. trying to follow the detour we didn't spot a bit of pavement sticking out into the two lane road - like a reverse bus stop, so bang! both passenger side (near side? never did get the hang of that) wheels collided with the kerb. both stayed inflated, no wobbles or pulling on the move, but there is a bulge on the sidewall of the front tyre. about the size of a tangerine, but black ...obviously.

my question (at last I hear you cry) is this - does the bulge mean that the tyre is damaged and unsafe? (would be typical as they're not that old)

Hurrah for the internet - we can post it on here

Good evening,
I joined the wonderful world of foccers in 2002.
I used to visit daily but for the past couple of years I just visit every now and then. I guess it's a month or two since my last visit and I can't log in and my old ID seems to have disappeared so I've had to re-register.
I couldn't find a link for Chalky or Admin hence the general post. Has there been a clean up campaign and those with infrequent posts disappear?
Cheers
