Thought I’d start a thread for my fazer modification. 

I’ve ridden my silver fazer around for a year and have decided to doing something with it. I want to shorten the seat, so it’s a single seat. Removing the rear pegs. Change the front to twin headlights with a small screen. Paint it all military green. So it looks like a streetfighter, chop, rat bike of some sort.

At the moment, I’ve jacked the rear by 25mm and removed the rear mudguard.

I want to changed the front next. Anyone done a good job of this with a picture?

Cheers guys.

Hello again,

as a new FZS owner, I have decided to try the Wurth Dry chain lube. Trouble is there are no useful instructions on it as to when to replenish the application. Does anyone have any information on this. 500miles, 1000 miles, after a downpour etc.

I have no prior experience of this stuff so all help gratefully received. Thanks.

Hi all, managed to purchase a brand new BMW S1000RR rear shock for my gen 1 thou, had a new top bush machined rather than go with the spacers & set every thing midway as a starting point. My question is how much thread on the preload should be showing? again, as a starting point. Cheers.

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.

ebay number 232571730498 taken from my bike before I sold it




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...
