  Hilltop motorcycles
Posted by: Dudeofrude - 31-05-18, 12:58 PM - Forum: General - Replies (14)

Just wondering if anyone has used them before?

I'm looking to get my ecu flashed so I can get rid of this pc3 and also to smooth out the throttle etc etc
I've been looking around the web (and I've asked here in the past) and they are the name that keeps popping up. It's a 3 hour ride from me and gonna cost £360 so I just want to make sure they are the best people for the job haha

And if not are there any other recommendations?

  Non starter
Posted by: shieldr - 31-05-18, 12:57 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (2)

Hi, A couple of weeks ago I took the bike out the garage as usual and she would not start.  Eventually she roared into life just as the juice was about out.  Since then no probs until this morning came out and turned her over until the battery was deid.  So turned the car round gave a her a jump and she started like a dream.  I stuck a yuasa battery in maybe 3.5 years ago and would not expect this to fail after such a short period.  Although the fact that she started with a  jump makes me think that the problem is not fuel related.  I have done nothing to the fuel system in 4/5 years.  I used to check alternators in cars by seeing whether the headlights were getting brighter when revving.  Might do that tonight.  I don't want to stick a new battery in then knacker it.

Any ideas?

  Touring - Loire Valley, France?
Posted by: Bretty - 31-05-18, 11:30 AM - Forum: General - Replies (1)

Hi All,

I'm planning a tour of the Loire Valley over a weekend with my other half. Has anyone done it before? I'm after recommendations for places to stay and things I must see.

I was planning to Ferry over to Caen, head down and pick up my missus at one of the airports (Tours, Angers or Nantes). Tour about for the weekend, then drop her at one of the other airports before cruising home.

I've never done the Loire Valley, but have previously enjoyed touring other rivers and valleys around Europe like the Mosel and Rheine.

Thanks,

Brett

  AIS removal and two water pipes
Posted by: bludclot - 30-05-18, 06:48 PM - Forum: Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner - Replies (7)




My Gen 1 is a little bit apart and the valve clearances have come in well within tolerance so I'm pleased. Two questions while it's open:


1 - is there any wisdom in removing the two water pipes that protrude from the valve cover? If they come out easily I'll renew them, if they are nothing but grief they can stay, it's purely a cosmetic thing for me. (Bike is absolutely mint, I am borderline obsessive regarding my vehicles.)


2 - can anyone point me towards an AIS deletion kit?


Any help appreciated thanks.

  So some fuck tried steeling my lever covers...
Posted by: b1k3rdude - 30-05-18, 06:16 PM - Forum: General - No Replies

So got back to the bike and found the one on my clutch lever almost all the way off and damaged, for what? a £5 fucking lever grip. Its most likely one of those little moped pricks, that has no respect adn deserves nothing more that to be kicked of his sorry excuse for a bike. I was so annoyed I did my usual 60min commute home in 45...

My only wish is that there is a camera pointed at that location...

I'm trying to login to this forum on a different browser.  I've tried all the different login boxes I can find, but they all go to page : http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php?action=login2  which shows message 'Your session timed out while posting. Please go back and try again.'

Anyone know how to get past this?

I just returned from Italy and saw a lot of Mivv exhaust cans, looked good. Didn't see one on a thou but lots of others.
Before I order one can any body tell me if they come with a main stand stop ?

  New MOT rules - HID conversion
Posted by: Adam2201 - 30-05-18, 11:38 AM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (9)

Hello foccers,


Not seen anyone post about this yet, sorry if I've missed it. 


I've booked by MOT for next week, and looking at the new rules ( https://www.mot-testing.service.gov.uk/d...ection_4.2 ) it seems that my Boxeye's HID headlight conversion will fail under the "[color=rgb(11, 12, 12)]Some motorcycles may be fitted with high intensity discharge (HID) headlamps. Existing halogen headlamp units shouldn’t be converted to be used with HID bulbs. If such a conversion has been done, you must fail the headlamp[/color][color=rgb(11, 12, 12)].[/color]".  Doesn't seem like there's much room for leeway.
[/size]
[/size]Has anyone been for an MOT since 20 May with an HID conversion fitted or am I going to be the guinea pig Smile [/size]
[/size]
[/size]Mine came with the conversion done when I bought it.... assuming it fails will it just be a case of snipping the wires and soldering an H1 connector in to put it back to original?


Ta,
