Andy.

Hey all


After an absence of a few years from the world of Fazer after selling my wee 600 I am happy to report that I am once again a Fazer owner in the shape of a 2003 Gen 1 Fazer 1000!!


Pics to follow when I work out how. Higher milage at 57k but in really good condition and has had a lot of time and effort spent on her by the previous owner including the full monty ivans kit, uprated suspension, luggage, comfort seat, elcetrical amp gauge and gear indicator thingy (dead technical me) and much more


look forward to seeing the Scottish contingent out and about


Cheers
Mark

Morning,


I went to my sisters on Saturday, 30 Motorway miles with no problems.  Came out about 5 hours later and the rear was totally flat, I had a repair kit and a pump with me so pumped it back up and threw on some some soapy water...no bubbles at all on the tyre, the bead or the valve.  What's stranger is that the tyre then held 38 psi until the next morning when I left.  No problems on the way home either....it's a bit of a mystery and has left me wondering if it's going to happen again.


Now I lost the dust cap a few weeks ago and haven't got round to getting another one, the bike had also been standing for a few weeks out on the street and I used the pump to add about 5psi before I left for my sisters.  The problem HAS to be with the valve I guess, do you think it could have stayed slightly open when I first pumped the tyre then closed properly when I checked for a leak?  I've never seen or heard of this problem before, anyone had the same?


Cheers...Buzz

Just got a 1999 600 Fazer, it's a gold one like I 1st saw 20 years ago. I'm 55 and it's my 1st bike with more than 2 pistons . I thought I better join up here to for the words of wisdom, but don't expect any in return.

Had my Foxeye for 4 years now,and it's been great.However, I'm thinking of swapping it for a Thundercat.Does anyone think I shouldn't,and why?

Mine have sheared bolts on exup valve, need new set cannot be fussed with drilling out etc.


I know whats on ebay, want to see if anyone on here has a reasonable set

Don't think this has been mentioned on this forum before...

Any vehicle that is 40 or more years old and which hasn't been substantially altered is now exempt from requiring an MOT test.

Thanks for the acceptance. New kid on the block here. Well maybe not so new.


Back in 2008, I had a Fazer 1000 and the Mrs had the Fazer 600 foxeye. We both chopped and changed over the years but since emigrating from the U.K., in 2014, I've been on a 2009 Tenere but she hasn't ridden since moving which was down to money and the other usuals. It's her 40th soon so I've bought an 03 foxeye 600 for her, so thought I'd sign up here for some hints and tips and many thanks in advance.


All the very best guys and girls.

FZS 1000 07 reg but 2005 model lava red, one of the last registered if not the last FZS1000, 23660 miles.

I bought the bike on 7/1/13 as a completely mint stock bike.

I then decided to have her professionally built with a list of improvements and top quality parts and create my dream Fazer...

Blue Spots removed & anodised Red with new caliper seals & SBS sintered brake pads

Crash bungs
M R A vario screen ......That's around £4000 worth of extras not including the labour cost of the build...

It has a fully stamped up service history also it has new Dunlop RoadSmarts 3's BrandNew Yuasa Battery put on this week, new heated grips ready to be fitted.

At 23.000miles during this Winter she had new coolant, NGK spark plugs, new oil & filter, brake fluid flush front & rear brakes, Carbs balanced, valve clearances checked (all ok) new K&N air filter and the EXUP valve stripped greased & set up - this and all the above work was carried out by Russ @Bolton Motorcycle Workshop - I wheeled in a completely stock 2005 Fazer and during every winter I had more work carried out until we decided that there wasn't much more we could do to my bike that wasn't either distasteful or that would spoil the bikes amazing performance...

Russ is more than happy to verify the bike to any perspective owners as he built it from the ground up & he knows it inside and out.

Also the bike can be viewed at his workshop during working hours;

The bike is as close to mint as I can get it, viewing essential to truly appreciate it, the top box does not come with the bike.
