Hi guys,
Sad times but I've barely used my '02 Fazer 600 in the past year so time to sell. The problem is the Fazer has been stood in a mate's garage since last autumn and now isn't running properly. It's ridable, but doesn't accelerate cleanly (it kinda 'chugs'). I've been told the carbs are probably blocked cos it's been stood so long. I'm no good at mechanical stuff myself, so would have to pay to get it fixed.


So my dilemma is: is it best to try and sell it cheap as it is, or pay possibly £200+ to get it in tip top condition and then sell?


I've no idea what the market is like for old gen 2 Fazers these days. I've looked at prices on eBay but they seem to vary hugely. A local bike dealer has offered me £750 for it. I don't mind letting it go cheap to avoid the faff of having the work done and selling it privately, but £750 seems ridiculously low!


Thoughts??

Hi has anyone got a FZ1S rack they no longer need ? Would consider buying box and all, but specifically looking for just the arms at the moment.

Hi If anyone is looking for a new TPS don't waste money on a second hand part. It's for a cheap bike but it's the same part as made by Mikuni of Japan!
part No (Mikuni A2) Hyosung No. 13580HP9301 it fits the Fazer

Bloody taxi driver stopped at junction, looked at me and waited... Obvs I was still cautious and dropped to about 20mph, then he crawled out and headed straight at me!!!My flipping balls are crushed and my beautiful T-Reg fzs600 with just 36000 miles, is now going to get written off.
Happy i've only got crushed nuts, broken finger and some hip damage but my bike. 12yrs we've been together.Just thought i'd share  :'(

The mighty thou has had a bit of a lumpy tickover recently , iam planning to ride down to poole bike night this evening so with that in mind I got up early with the intention of balancing the carbs , started the bike up to get it up to temperature and I get the 7000 rpm code , exup , not serviced for I while so I strip it down to find the cable holding /guide bracket has rusted through  :eek


managed to weld It up  although not the best job it has made the bike useable , anyone else had this problem or is it my lazy maintenance    :o

Hey All.
Went for a ride yesterday and today just noticed that my radiator is leaking. Any one have or know a place where I can get a second hand one?


cheers

A few weeks back whilst out riding with mates I missed a gear and hit the limiter on a false neutral. All seemed ok and a mile or so later stopped for a brew. Once I started up the bike again It did a massive clunk into 1st and then started to creep forward. Adjusting the cable either had the clutch slipping badly or creeping forward, nowhere in between. Anyways, today i took the clutch cover off and the plates out and found the shaft plug had fallen out. After reading about this on the American FZ01A site where other guys had the same feeling and experience as me and a few other guys had the same problem after false neutrals I thought I would share with you guys too.
Funnily enough I'm sure I have read about this problem on here or on the Fazer 1000 owners club many moons ago.

Hi all
I’ve developed a fault on my fzs 1000
It’s done 13000 ish miles and standard
Apart from a can
It’s a 52 reg
My problem is it’s like the clutch never fully
Disengages
Pulling always fine the biting point is and always has been fine
It’s when you change down




If your in second and dip the clutch whilst rolling
And rev the throttle you can feel the clutch
Trying to spin the gearbox
But when stationary first gear clutch in
No problem

Guys...thoughts on this would be appreciated....
My DD has a two year old astra 1 litre petrol, about 35k on the clock. It's started showing engine management light and after scanning with Bluetooth sensor and torque app shows code p0303 which is engine misfire on cylinder 3. I have swapped plug and coil pack with cylinder 1 but fault code remains unchanged so I'm thinking possible injector issue??
Is it likely that redex would clear it or is there something better? I know she uses supermarket fuel and does run the tank low
Any other thoughts??
