Hi guys


I need your help my 2002 fazer 1000 has a indercators has stopped working I've changed the handle bar switch cleaned every connection with contact spray I'm at my wits end with it now. It has a Meta alarm system on it and the indercators work with that. Any one any insight..  :'(

Hi all,

I'm sure this has been asked before and at the risk of repeating a previous post here goes:

I'm about to start a project, first thing to do is to swap my clock (1st gen FZ1) for an 5JJ R1 (00-01) clock.

First:
Does anyone have a pin layout for the connector plug for both machines please, I understand it's only a case of swapping some pins - but which pins?
I understand that after rewiring the pins, everything should display correctly on the replacement speedo (except for the fuel level because the R1 doesn't have a gauge).

Next:
The R1 cluster doesn't have a fuel gauge, but I'd still like to have one, is it possible to fit an aftermarket gauge by connecting it to the fuel level wire from the loom?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

I'm a returning old foccer, I used to belong many years ago, but I recently acquired a 1st Gen 04 plate with 18K on the clock - I forgot how much fun they are!!!!

I am looking at upgrading the rear shock absorber on a mk1 fazer 600 and believe a R6 one will fit, but what year R6 shock absorber am I looking to buy, that will fit?


Cheers,


Richard

okay just changed me front wheel and it feels a little tight... if you give it a spin rotates about two turns and stops is that okay or do you think it needs to spin more??

Hi one and all.
New to the club and sorry to be starting with a problem. I ended up here after doing a google search of my issue so here I am.
I have a 2003 Foxeye 600, it is used as my commuter and does 70 miles a day 4 or 5 days a week. In November last year I upgraded the headlight bulbs but they are the 60/55 versions so no probs there. I always have my headlights on even in the day time so the headlight switch is always in the on position.

On the way to work on Friday, I noticed near the end of my journey that I could not see the reflection of my lights in the car in front. Got to work and sure enough no headlights.  Turned the bike off, checked the fuse and all good. Took one of the bulbs out and all good, refitted the bulb and put the ignition on and all was well. At the end of the day, turned the ignition on and lights came on nd started to ride home. Again, when I was nearly home it was clear no headlights were on, got home and checked and sure enough they were off and have not come back on at all.
Did a bit of a google and came up with a couple of threads on here about high powered bulbs and the 2 relays behind the clocks.Took the screen off and found the relays, no click from either of them when I turn the ignition on. I checked everything and no sidelights, headlights, tail light, full beam off the toggle switch, brake light or horn. The lights come on if you press the pass light ok and if you put the key in the park light position of the ignition the side lights and the rear tail lights come on so no issue with the wiring to either.Today I took the 4 pin relay out and looped the 2 power connectiors that go into it and the headlights came on (but no side lights or rear lights still).
So I am thinking there is definitely a problem with the 4 pin relay, the question is, would this effect the tail light, brake light and horn?
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Anybody had any issues with pipercross filters?
I bought mine a few years ago.  Don’t do many miles.  I figured it had been in there for a few years now and it was about time I dug it out and cleaned it.
As you can see the paint has been flaking off. (photos to follow)  This is it after I’ve set about it with the kitchen vegetable brush.  I’ve cleaned and washed it as per pipercross instructions using their cleaning kit and it’s in my conservatory drying overnight.
But this paint is on the clean side, some of it must have already passed through the carbs.
So dunno what to do.
1.        1.  Stick it in and stop worrying – the bike has already consumed a good bit of the paint.
2.      2.  Throw it in the bin and get a paper one – sod fancy filters.
3.      3.  Contact pipercross and see what they have to say.


Anybody else had this issue?
