hi all
just thought id say hi as I'm a new member
just brought my first fazer 1ooo gen 1
I collect it tomorrow  bit nervous tbh

So showing my mrs the fzs600 she's wondering how comfy it is on the back. As she's wanting to come out with me now and again. How many of you have been on the back or had your mrs on the back. Did they have any complaint about comfort or anything ?


Any reviews or opinions from your other halfs welcome

Looking for a rack and plate needed to fit a Givi top box on the back of my 2003 FZS600...

Hi All,


Had an FZ6 S2 for three or four weeks now, first bike. Very pleased so far.


Nice to meet you all and looking forward to chatting.

Just bought a Fazer thou a few days ago and Rosen it home 200 miles no problems and was great. Problem now is it has developed a noise today when I started it, I had taken off the downpipes to clean and serviced the exup then started it and I can hear this ticking noise, is it the cam chain? Here's a video of the noise

Apologies if this question sounds a little dull  :z  but having just become the proud owner of a lovely 2003 FZS600 i'm currently trawling the 'inter-web' for a simple response to what it is I need to fit a top box from scratch... any recommendations for racks/plates/boxes etc... Ideally want to be able to pack a lid and a goretex/armoured jacket in it... or is that too ambitious? :rolleyes

Hi all!


Recently became the proud owner of a beautifully looked after 2003 FZS600 for my prospective commute from Essex into London from Sept. Having previously owned a Bandit, CBR 600F, GSXR600 and Daytona 600 - for for the money I've just payed, the overall condition and the ride-ability I couldn't be happier 


Looking for general tips, but initially trying to establish what I need to secure a Top Box on the back...

Evening all!

I have developed a Miss fire on cylinder 3 under 3k -3.5k.

The exhaust pipe on cylinder 3 is cold untill above 3k.

I have changed all the plugs and checked the ht leads, all seem to be sparking fine. But this is as far as I have got, as not sure what to check next!!

Thanks in advance

Anyone about Sunday ?  Going to have a run to Headcorn, then possibly down to Rye and Camber. Who's up for a run out ?

Hi Guys and Gals.

I've had my gen 1 Fazer thou for about 3 years now, and I think it's the best bike I have had. The problem is that I am getting on a bit, and I have bad osteo-arthritis in my knees, as well as a double slipped disc. Being sat on a bike is one of the most comfy places for me to be - but off the bike (i.e. pushing/parking and getting on/off it) is something of a nightmare, even though it's the only bike I've had that I haven't dropped when getting off it.

So I will very reluctantly soon be advertising it here for sale - or exchange. The problem is, I don't know what to replace it with. Preferably a bit lighter, or weight a bit lower. Lower seat would be good. I'm into retro stuff - loved my old Zephyr 750 and do like the old Bandits, but I have zero idea about recent bikes - i.e. the last ten year's worth. I really dislike the styling of modern bikes, with stubby rear ends and poxy pillion pads.

I can't think of anything that would be a good replacement, so I was wondering if anyone would have any ideas. I don't know about a 600 Fazer - looks like the weight is quite high on them. I would really prefer a larger engine - 750 or up. I like to slot it in gear and be able to leave it there for long periods (a la Zephyr - or Fazer thou,   ). It can't be too new - cos I don't have much cash. I can go investigating any suggestions and maybe we can come up with a suitable alternative together

Thanks
