It is with deep regret that I having to part with my FZS1.

Unfortunately health issues are forcing me to stop riding, so I am selling my 04 FZS1 Silver with Black engine, It has only 24.700 on the clock. I have owned it for 9 years, I have all its MOT's, it is currently MOT'd until 23.6.2019.

As you can see by the list it has had a lot spent on it and If I get the asking price I will leave all the extras on.
There is a small mark on the R/H Fairing, but all in all it is very good condition, I have always had it garaged.

I bought my lovely FZS 600 Fazer in February this year after finding myself looking for a new (older) bike. I've loved the look of the original Fazer ever since it first came out and when I saw this one for sale in Kent I'm glad to say that I decided that now was my time to own one.


A few 'tasteful' extra's later and In have my perfect do it all bike! This one is definitely a keeper and am looking forward to many years of ownership with the help and advice available on this site to make it all the more enjoyable. I used the info provided by one of the members a while back to re-wire the front lights on dipped to improve what is one of the few flaws that this bike has. For a 20 year old bike it goes and handles superbly and I'm plenty happy with my choice.

afternoon guys

just got myself a fazer 1000 05 plate , hoping to gain your knowledge on the old girl , been looking for something modern as i have only been riding old 70's bike since i sold my sports bike . It was nice to ride it home before the rain came down hope to still get some rides out on it with the wife before the winter is here , then plan to tidy it up over the winter ready for next year .
all the best to you all
thanks

hi all
Due to a change of direction I’m selling my fazer
The bike is in as new condition
Always garaged
It has Scott oiler
Datatool alarm with two working fobs
Gear indicator
Crash bobbins
Full service history
Very recent chain sprockets and tyres
Completely stock with a micron can
Has the original can as new
Mileage is 13000 and won’t be going up
As I’m using other bikes now

Well I have notived something odd or faulty!?!?
Filled my 06 to the brim the other day, reset the trip. I have done just iver 40 miles and allready down to 3 bars in the digital guage?!
Is this normal or a known problem or what!? I'm confused ??

I know that this has been a topic that has been discussed multiple times on this forum but......

last night I managed to snap off one of the bleed nipples on the rear caliper :'(.  I'm hoping that I should able to remove the portion of the nipple left in the caliper.  It snapped off level with the body of the caliper.
I also know that getting hold of a second hand caliper is next to impossible as is getting one for an early fzs1000 it seems.....and I don't really want to pay £400 for a new one.

SO my question in 2 parts is :
Are there any other options when it comes to calipers that will fit? (from other bikes/years)

Any tips for getting this broken one out.  I'm hoping that an extractor in the hollow bolt and maybe a bit of heat will work, I have been applying oil to the tread hoping to break the tension.  I don't really want to have to re-thread the hole as I'm not very good at it.

So I now own an 06 FZ1. Yay me!! Now as far as I am aware, and will soon get time to delve in amongst it all to confirm, the bike appears to be standard apart from a remus end can ( I believe cat removed)and black screen!!


Ive allready noticed the on/throttle snatch amongst a few other things.


But I am wondering weather the mods I've been reading about ie for the Air-box chopping and smaller butterfly valves etc. Are they all absolutly proven to help, as i have seen a few opinions to the contrary?? And can you do all or only some without the need for a power commander?


Tia.

As per title who's the people to go to for custom seats? I know of Tony Archer and Digger but is there another? I seem to remember having one made for 600 ( now looking for my thou) which I don't think was either one of these guys but I can't remember! :wall

Hi guys

I have been trying to post my bike on the sales & wanted page, following all obvious instructions plus attatchments from my hard drive but with no success. Help would be appreciated as it is bad enough having to post my bike for sale once never mind having to keep repeating.

thanks
