Ok, so I took off the servo motor for my Fazer 1000 gen 1 about 3 years ago and I cant remember where it went or in what orientation. Has anyone got a photo of the position of the thing.

Thanks.

  Electric troubleshooting help
Posted by: dudeco12 - 03-02-18, 12:43 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (7)

Greetings,


I have a strange issue with my '99 FZS600 where it starts, rides normally, everything works for a while after which it suddenly cuts out - any gear, any speed, throttling up or down, doesn't matter - the time just comes, engine cuts out and leaves me stranded for about 3-5 minutes, where if I press the starter button, the oil and fuel warning lights come up, as they would when starting with the kill switch in the off position. After 3-5 minutes it just starts up normally again like nothing happened and the process is repeated.


Does anyone have any idea what this may be? I suspect either the cutoff relay or perhaps the pickup coil by looking at the circuit diagram, but your input would be appreciated!

Sent for some lovely looking levers off ebay, cnc and made in the UK. The ad read that they were in stock and if not could be manufactured in two weeks, cool away goes my order. On the delivery day no levers so I contact the firm and ask if there is an issue. The reply was they have not yet made them, so I ask them why not as they have had a month from the order date to get them sorted and re read their ad back at them. This morning I get an email asking me to cancel my order. It's not like they don't do them any more as they are still advertising them I can only guess they threw the dummy out of the pram because I had the nerve to ask them what was going on. Rant over.

  Exhausts direct from china, what are your thoughts?
Posted by: bingo600 - 03-02-18, 01:23 AM - Forum: General - Replies (10)




Ok lads.. I hope this isnt too controversial, i know what some people might feel about ordering parts from china. but here goes


After a conversation with a mate, I was gonna fork out the guts of £300 for an exhaust, but he advised me that half of these "cheaper" makes you find on the internet are all made in china anyway even some expensive brands are, and these can be bought from china directly, and a few guys he knows have bought them from china and they are just the same as what you might find on some websites of some generic brands but not upto the standard of high end brands but still very acceptable quality. he has an rsv1000 running one which is basically a fake akrapovic to be truthful


he gave me some links..

  Idea for a jacking frame?
Posted by: matt7chunk - 01-02-18, 10:40 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (4)

This is my bad drawing of my idea to get the old girl up in the air:
Ask a friend to hold the bike stable and jack up from the middle plate then slip 4 axle stands on all corners of the frame ?

  Tyres- What age would you change tyre(s) at? AND....120 section on the front?
Posted by: hopefiendboy - 01-02-18, 01:41 PM - Forum: FZS600 Fazer - Replies (16)

Hi All


Back on the fazer bandwagon again- after 9 years since owning my last 1999 FZS600!



Just about to acquire a Y2K FZS600SA with only 20.5K miles on the clock. Now the tyres on the bike are a few years old (6+ easy) and I was wondering at what sort of age you would consider replacing tyres that have not had a lot of use?


I have a 120/60/17 PR3 front unused tyre in the garage that I could fit on, but i know this is a slightly wider profile than standard spec and will in theory fit. So, this is a possible option.


Your opinions would be gratefully received!


Paul

  A decent radio station?
Posted by: agricola - 31-01-18, 10:26 PM - Forum: General - Replies (28)

Struggling to find a decent station to listen too when Im in the cave. Classic FM ahs too many adverts now now and I cant stand it when they speak at 500 words a minute at the end of the advert, utterly incomprehensible. Used to listen a lot to Radio 4, but jeez its been taken over by campaign groups for Womens this that and the other. Cant get through the day without another female focus group being created for sufferers of vaginal warts etc
