Where do I buy replacement main jets? |

I've just pulled the airbox out. No way that bad boy is going back in a hurry.
So maybe pod filters and a rejet.
The carbs are minging anyway so I'm happy to pull them to bits and clean them.
I've read 2 125s and two 127.5 main jets and a four click needle lift should sort some fluffiness if I fit pods. Where can I source the jets I need? It's been a while. Thanks.

Like many of the original parts for our sublime machines, these brackets are now NLA from Yamaha, anyone know of dealers or a seller that specializes in new old stock parts? This is the situation that eventually put me off my misguided obsession with old, large two strokes. :'( But, ? I suppose they have been out of production nearly 20 years!

Hello hello,
First of all best forum name ever.
Been a long time since using forums but this looks worth it. Especially since I'm loving my Fazer 1000.
Previous bike was a Grom, was planning on an MT07 or GSXR 600. The insurance quotes were dumb, so though I'll try insuring that 1000cc... £200!?
Bought it. I assume it'll be recognised perhaps? Due to being custom painted in a very nice green.
South Wales based and nice to meet you all.

front suspension upgrade |

Hello Guys,
I am almost only riding road on weekends but I do like to push myself and I find the bike sometimes gives me an unstable feel, I would like to upgrade it, also I am in love with the bike and I will be keeping it and I only want to improve it, starting with suspension.
So I was checking all the threads about R6/R1 forks and started considering it, but then I came across the thread about upgrading the stock suspension so I am leaning towards the upgrade. My question is: between the following variants:
1. Race Tech Gold Valve Cartridge Fork Emulators or other fork valves like these: https://www.wemoto.com/bike/yamaha/fzs/6...ork-valves
and
2. Andreani Misano Evo Fork Cartridge Kit: https://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/fork-i...?switch=BG or this one: Fork upgrade kit Yamaha FZS 600 Matris FSE: https://www.officine08.com/p81259_fork-u...s-fse.html
Would the 1st variant be half assed or is it a proper upgrade in your opinion? Should I consider it, or just move onto the full upgrade?
Also, if variant 1 is a proper upgrade, should I consider the cheaper options like these fork valves: https://www.wemoto.com/bike/yamaha/fzs/6...ork-valves or rule them out and go with gold ones?
FInal question, I cannot find gold valves for the exact fzs600 2000y so I am wondering would I want 41mm ones or some other diameter?
I know the price is very different, and I would always want to spend less, but the more important thing is quality of the upgrade so for my bike I am willing to spend if the fork valves variant is not a proper option.
Thanks a lot in advance for your opinions.
Best Regards

Service: Carburetor Refurbishment - FZS600 & 1000 |

As per the title really, I've started refurbing carburettors for guys in the Facebook forums for fazers and other bikes so thought I'd post on here too.
£100 starting price which includes the stripping and ultrasonic cleaning of the carbs as well as the rebuild.
All parts required are + the cost above and can be discussed prior to refurb if you already know what you want/require or wait until they have been stripped to see where any problems are hiding.
I'm also going to look at the possibility of ivanising (1000 only) the carbs too if there is enough interest?
Send me a message on here or WhatsApp me - 07940 160902 - Richard Tindall on Facebook.
