Hello everyone,
It's my first post on here so after a little assistance if possible.
Having recently had a slight mishap with my beloved FZ6s (2005 model with 6k on it) some daft bugger thought it was a good idea to drive a JCB with no rear lights down the A19 on a wet very dark morning. Seeing the JCB at the last moment I ditched the bike on the floor not wanting to hit the JCB now I am trying to source quite a few bits and I am struggling to find reasonably priced components to repair the bike. Looking on eBay is very hit and miss although I have found the price of new OEM components on US web sites better priced than here in the UK or in Europe.
Can any one point me in the right direction of where to buy here in the uk?
I'm after a main front cowling, screen, RH inner panel, RH outer panel, foot pegs rider and pillion, indicators, RH mirror, fuel tank, break leaver, RH bar end, headlight to name but a few of the parts.
Thanks in advance.

sold my gen 1 after a fz1n now  :rolleyes

So...my rear shock is done.
I did kebab's front forks modification (emulators) and now the front end is like new, but it highlighted the problem I've been suspecting - the rear shock needs to be changed.
All I'm finding on the internet is the YSS Z-series monoshock: http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/yamaha/fzs_6...monoshock/ which is not particularly cheap (can be found on ebay for less).


Are there any other worthy options to consider ?


Thanks

HI there! Must be the time of year or something...


Anyhoo, it's time to let my Fazer 600[smg id=3048 type=preview align=center caption="Faz2"][smg id=3049 type=preview align=center caption="Faz1"] go, it's had an exciting life, commuting from home to London every day for the last 6 years and the occasional track day, advanced rider test thrown in!


It's got about 82,000 miles on the clock, engine is sound as a pound, regular oil and filter changes carried out by yours truly since 2011. It was in the shop at 60,000 miles and had the valve clearances done, no adjustment required. The bottom of the rear shock bearing has been changed as it was getting worn, new front wheel bearings fitted also. It's got heated grips and a data tool alarm. Back tyre's good, front has a 1000 miles or so left in it.


What it needs: The front brake discs are getting a bit worn and will also need new pads.


MOT's till January. Other then the discs it will pass another MOT (IMO)


Anyway, £500 or nearest offer, buyer collects, I'll give it a wash...

Hi guys my fazer is up forsale,  sadly my wife won't let me keep both.
If any one on here wants it I'll knock some money off the price. 
Cheers Adam

Nuther daft question as i dont have my fzs600 anymore to compare --recently aquired a yzf600 tcat forks arent great so looking to change --do the fzs600 forks fit the tcat as cat ones are few and far between thanks--

who's gonna buy this  a 17 year old kid? at 6 or 7 grand.
a kid isn't going to hang around so 75 miles at 60mph  isn't going to last.

Hi Foccers,

The front right foot peg on my 98 Boxeye is loose, i.e. it rotates rather than wobbles up and down.

I’m sure I read somewhere that this is quite common. Is it ? Is it an easy fix if not ... or a likely MOT failure ?

Thanks in advance,

Matt

R6 shock in silver good condition. posted 110 to you.

What am I missing? How do you get the airbox out of the way on a gen1 to work on the carbs??????? I've got tank (including rear bracket) off, side covers off, airbox sides off, airbox lid off, battery out, as many screws and bolts and hoses as I can find undone. I've the airbox loose off the carbs but can't see how to remove it completely from the bike. Do you have to separate the front and rear parts of the airbox, if so how do you get at the screws? Shop manual says drain the coolant; why???
