Have a 2003 Fazer 1000

To add to my other two Fazers, I bought this last week. It is to use throughout the winter months.2000 model, 30,000 miles on the clock, cosmetic damage, has fallen on the left side. Runs well enough. Done about 300 miles so far.

Well worth a look.
The book and video 'A Twist of the Wrist 11' deals with this at some length.

Hi guys,


Im a new member here and I've been reading post and comments.
just got my Fazer 1000 big and planning for bigger bike shed.


Any ideas? Im trying to look for threads but cannot find any.

having ridden in a heavy downpour last night along the M3 my J&S trousers have developed a leak which meant I had an uncomfortable ride from Basingstoke to Portsmouth!!

I was going to buy a can of fabsil and spray that on but before I do has anyone got any other recommendations?

Cheers

Someone might know the answer to this.

I'm looking at a 2014 model of the above online with a pillion seat cowl and no pillion foot rests/hangers.

Would that have been a factory option when the bike was ordered new, or would the foot pegs/hangers have been removed at a later date?.

Ta. YFF.

Sorry folks threads probably been done before but I want to change my exhaust on my gen 2, I want views and opinions on what to avoid and whats the dogs bollocks in terms of quality, sound ( se how I didn't put noise, sweet ) and price. whats the craic with the EXUP aswell, Take the piss im up for it, just a newbie wanting the gain some knoll. Also quick on planning on ACF 50 treatment guess before the gritters hit the roads any view and comments welcome

torn between adding to another thread and not wanting to hijack,
I'm having some strange noises coming from the bike.
It's only present in 6th gear and only on accelerating.
If I let off the throttle it stops. If I clutch it it stops even while twisting the throttle.
Drop down a gear it goes away right away.


It's not having any effect on performance. Bike pulls hard. But the chattering is fairly loud.
Sounds like I'd imagine the bike would sound if the clutch pack was hitting off the arms of the clutch basket.
I know the xjr has a common issue with te pin on the back of the basket causin it to rattle but I don't think it's the same on the fazer.


Any ideas? Could it be the clutch basket?
