NOW SOLD For sale is my 2001 600 fazer.


MOT'd early march 2018, mileage is 31k, rear tyre has less than 1000 mile on it, same with chain and sprocket. This spring I did kebabs front fork mod, new dust and oil seals, yss emulators and öhlins springs rated at 85nm. I've got the original damper rods and springs so it can be reverted back. Carb inlet rubbers replaced about two years ago and are in great condition. Carb balance done last month and the engine starts and runs extremely well. I had the seat made around three years ago and it is slightly lowered with a gel insert. Headlight mod also done. LED indicators, LED tail light.

Fairly sure it's been covered before but I just wanted to say that I've recently changed out the front brake master cylinder and the difference is substantial.
Horrified by the price of Brembo aftermarket units, I fitted a 16mm R1 radial master cylinder from the 2004-06 model. I believe the R6 master cylinder from 2008 onwards are virtually the same and are also a relatively straight fit. Costs around the ton and worth considering if your bike is soon due for a master cylinder rebuild / refurb.
Braking is always a subjective thing but I have to say that there's a lot less effort required to build stopping power towards max....yet somehow the sensitivity is still there, certainly enough to avoid overloading the forks / locking the front up.

Hi guys have been sorting my old gal out today, recharged my K&N filter, cleaned crankcase breather, I even found a filter on my airbox breather pipe I never knew about so yep, I even cleaned that too! whilst cleaning the plugs I started thinking.. hmmm how could I get more air to the box cos the intake opening faces backwards?
I've had a look on the links and the comments on the site but not much really in the way of ideas so..
I was wondering how about some kind of ram air system? I was thinking I could place a cover or 'scoop' looking shroud over the air intake entrance, like I said due to the fact it faces backwards maybe lead a hose to the front of the bike with another scoop facing front collecting shed loads of air when going forward.
What's your thoughts on would it work, I would love to know if it would be of any benefit from all you mechanical minded people out there.
Cheers in advance for your thoughts 

Took exup cables off bike as part of a major re-furb... Thinking I'd remember where everything went when I put it back together...

Does the 'silver' cable at the top of the pulley on the exhaust go to the top of the servo motor wheel?

That's right isn't it? The 'black' cable at the bottom of the pulley routes to the bottom of the servo wheel...?

And... When the switch the ignition on should the servo go through a push and pull cycle? Mine seems only to pull the top ('silver') cable - there's no 7k error on the clocks..

And can someone tell me why, after 10 years of ownership, I seem to have forgotten all this... Haahaa!

Cheers,
Steve

10 years ago tomorrow I PX'd my Fazer 600 against a CB1000R, something I've regreted ever since!


The Honda lasted 3 years before it was exchanged for a Fazer 1000 which I've still got, the longest I've ever kept a bike, taking over from the 600.


I'd love to know what's happened to my old 600, it looks like it's been on SORN since last summer, anyone on here got it?

Thinking of a trip up there today and will be coming up from the south M1 any recommendations or tips as to the best route. 

EDIT to say I went and my report is here http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,24310.0.html

Can't wait for the England game. Bikes fuelled up, tyres checked, oil checked, 2/3 hours empty roads aaaaaahhhhh bliss, won't see a kick of the ball or a penalty taken or many cages trying to make scrap out of my bike and me. 

Hey guys.
Strange issue here today. I was out on holidays for a couple weeks and my bike was idle during this time. Before i went on holidays my rad was leaking so i removed the radiator and prepared the bike for the new one that i ordered.
Today i managed to get the new radiator on the bike. But when i tried to start the bike it would not start. Even with the choke on. 
I managed to get the bike started, but noticed that the fuel pump was priming even with the bike running.
Eventually it died. after that it starts but after a few minutes it dies.
Please note that i have just recently service the bike  -  clean the carbs, sync it, change the HT leads and plugs, oil, filter, air filter etc.


Not sure if this is related to the replacement of the radiator. I would not think so.


Thanks for your help
