Morning all, one of my plastic fairing fasteners has gone walkies, the ones that secure the infill panel. I've done the usual search on ebay but can't find them, does anyone have a web link they can share or have one or two (always good to have a spare) knocking around that i could buy. Thanks in advance for any help  :thumbup

If anyone has a fully functioning non seized rear brake calliper for sale then message me please.

This is strange. Just got back from the Isle of Man, bike not missed a beat once. Pulled over for a break and after about 10 mins I noticed a brown oily petrol mix seeping out of carb no2 running down onto the generator cover. I rode another 300 odd miles since then, turning the fuel off every time I stopped (which was annoying). I've just taken the carbs off and found the float bowl rubber gasket split on no2 carb but, carbs are clean inside! So what was the brown stuff?? It felt like oil, so now confused!!

Not a whining sound... more a sort of washing machine cycle sound, more gutteral than high pitched? Started on the last part of the journey back from The Krazy Horse the other night so i has beeb wringing its neck. Bike starts and droves ok tbh, the sound is not present when sitting, just on the move, pulling the clutch in when rolling along the road does not stop it either. The bike was whining a little on the motorwats through the gears, but i noticed that stopped somewhat at least when this sound started? Also When stationary in the garage, engine running, if i hold the revs with the throttle ot seems like a larger chunk of the rev range is quite burbley now? Could be imagining it though.
Carb rebalance?
Cam Chain ?
Leak in the carb rubbers?
Any thoughts/advice would be great, apologies for the descriptions but without being here its difficult to capture the sound

MCN has a review of the boxeye in this weeks copy, as a secondhand bike, and mentions FOC-U as a source of info [as well as the yamaha owners forum {of which i am also a member}]

worth a read, but nothing we didnt already know.

Does any one know where this stand stop bracket would fit on a Gen1 [size=1em]when fitting an Akrapovic system?[/size]

I have the factory manual download and it's not clear to me how this is done. On my other bikes it was loosen lower fork clamp bolts then tighten up basically pulling the lower fork clamp up towards the top yoke.


Is it the same? Cos the manual isn't clear at all.

Hi guys


Recently put some Renthal 758's on my fzs600 and brought some tiny Oxford bar ends to make sure they didn't stick out to much.


Worked for about a month but sadly yesterday one of them fell out whilst riding and I didn't notice it  :rolleyes


So now I need some new bar ends that will fit Renthal 758's, looking for some that have a better securing to the handlebars than the Oxford one's, was wondering if there was any handlebar guards that fit the Renthal 758's?


Hope you guys can help me out.


Cheers
