Not sure on price but my FZS600 is getting in my way and is not being used, done only a few miles past 2 years.
Needs front brakes sorting as starting to bind, not got an MOT....
19K miles on engine, has had issue where i snapped an exhaust stud, ended up with the cylinder head off to re-drill a blank opposite to allow exhaust to clamp, no issue since...some may recall the thread, i will never forget it
Any one interested would need to pick up and collect with a van, what would people say its worth, bearing in mind what it needs sorting....
- Braided Lines Hel
- Scoprion Exhaust
- Clean rear caliper
- Good chain
- Little bits of rust creeping in...
Will get some pics on later...not got time right now.
Also have an R6 shock that i got off a member here with the dogbones, so someone might want that, not on the bike right now, stock one is on...
Fed up of fellows in France flashing me because of my lights and with me slowing thinking it might be the police or cameras, I decided to make up my own Beam deflectors before I headed of to France this time
Standard over the counter beam deflectors are not really any good on the Fazers as it is the reflector which deflects the beam not the lens.
They worked a treat as the only time I was flashed was by another biker to warn of a police car stopped about a kilometer ahead, when I was tipping along a 'little' over the limit :eek on a back road heading to see Merlins Tomb and the Fountain of Youth.
Backed off to 90K and saw the car with no one in it and then saw two officers inside in the middle of a field talking to a farmer on his tractor.
Am I missing something?
I do not seem able to add/attach a photo to a personal message. If this feature is available to use, Please could somebody explain to me how.
I appreciate any help offered with this.
Thanks in advance.

clutch pull on the mighty 1000 is fatiguing for my weak man hands so I sourced one of these and just fitted it up. Took a bit of messing about as it reduces the throw of the main clutch cable so you need to remove as much slack as possible, anyway I did a video of it, 2 parts as my neighbour walked past as I was recording. Been on test and it selects gears and neutral ok , 1st attempt without taking all slack up at the clutch case end resulted in clutch not fully disengaging with lever pulled in.
I realise this isn’t an issue for most riders but could be for those like me who ain’t getting any stronger. I considered an hydraulic option but for £15 this is as light as I think you will get. My Ducati 996 hydraulic clutch was so heavy it needed 2 hands. https://youtu.be/-pcF8zS1ZTE https://youtu.be/5bv60-ElrHM
Bike has been laid up for a while. I had the carb's ultrasonic cleaned because the throttle valves were stuck in the closed position . They had previously been full monty Ivanised by Mike and all was well up until I had to stop riding the bike. Now has 7k error code which is obviously the EXUP faulty after a period of non-running. I will sort this out but...….
Bike started up fine but settled to a very fast idle, well over 2000rpm and fiddling with the idle adjuster does nothing. Is this likely to be due to the EXUP before I check the throttle cables and, if needed, tear the carb's back off - which I'm loathe to do yet again? Could the fast idle be due to incorrect float heights when reassembled by the ultrasonic guys at Ragged Moto?
