Just removed from the FZS 1000 I just bought.
Good condition a few minor marks from use.
One key, but it looks a standard blank you could get cut from most places.
Picture of it on the bike and of each part.
Live in the Midlands (CV9) for collection.

Just bought a Silver 2004 FZS 1000 having just sold my Red/White 1998 R1.


Before this other sports bikes like GSXR-1000, TL1000R and a KR1S track bike.
Now I am approaching 60 so thought better slow down a little.... only a little 
Thus the name called myself for this club.

Hi,

Noticed last night arriving back home, a smell of burning coolant....

Checked this morning and the bottom seal between the rubber and metal pipes feeding into the bottom of the engine block (oil cooler?) looks like it's gone.

Is this something a novice mechanic could handle? Looks like you'd have to get the pipes off (?) and my 03 Fazer 1000 header bolts look like they're rusted solid. I presume the part would be cheap-ish, but the rest of the work looks frightening. Trouble is I can't drive it anywhere, I'd lose all the coolant in 10 minutes. Is this a squealer job?

Thanks,
Chris.

Would you buy a Yamaha Niken?


For me it is a big no, £13500 for a 263 kilo MT09 with an extra wheel, I don't care how much confidence you get in pushing the front end, its not a motorcycle, its a tricycle.

ive done a search and can’t find a guide to removing ais on my 2004 fzs1000


Can I do it With stock pipe on ? Will be getting a slip on and Ivan’s jet kit in due course


Are all the common mods stickied somewhere?

Hi,


I am building a custom Fazer, is anyone using a lithium ion batter they can send me a link to?


Thanks,


James

so I’m the proud new owner of a stock 2004 thou with 44k up it 


This will be my second bike after passing my test in 2016. First bike was a my09 tracer that I did 13k on in 18 months


I’m expecting a totally different experience with this older inline 4, with no abs or traction control, so I’m going to have to learn to respect the power and the brakes very quickly  :eek


I pick her up next Saturday  :lol

Good second hand ones, no spanner rash or rust.

Its that time for new chain and sprockets, still have the originals so that includes the 9mm nut, kept an eye on it due to known problems but all was well.
Sooo ordered a new nut and locking washer from my dealer and a new 9mm nut turns up. Apparently its all up to date, but why a 9mm nut and not the 12mm nut if there are known problems.
Shall I get a 12mm nut from wemoto?


Cheers
