Just bought a modded R6 shock off a fellow member, excited to test it out and compare the difference between a 40,000 mile unserviced standard shock and the r6 unit! il keep you posted

I hope it was a slow painful death!! never understood why he wasn't given a death sentence!

Hi folks,


Just bought a low mileage 2003 fzs and a new set of delkevic downpipes.
Before I put the pipes on I wanted to remove the black paint from the end can's link pipe and prime and paint it silver.


But it's actually come out quite well after the sanding down.
Do you guys reckon it'll be okay with a couple coats of clear vht paint on ie: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AUTOTEK-VHT-CL...3641.l6368


.. or will the metal be too weak?


Clueless about metals and paints!


Cheers

Looking for a rear caliper for my 2000 FZS 600. Need something working and ready to fit. To keep me going until I find a 1000 blue spot version.

Cheers

Looking for a nice Fazer 1000, sub 25k miles, well looked after and certainly NO tatty rubbish please

Hi Guys, Always had nice Hondas in the past and recently sold my cb1300 as I seem to have lost my passion for riding, am now looking for something cheaper to keep in the garage for the odd blast if the mood takes me, Thought a fazer 1000 would fit the bill perfectly for a blast or a more sedate long days riding so here I am!!

Since my radiator needs replaced I had another go at getting in touch with SFS about silicone hose kits.  I made a guess at the email address of the person in SFS that was helpful last time to see if they still have the patterns/tooling from last time and this is the important bit of the response I got back within 6 minutes!

[color=rgb(31, 73, 125)]I would suggest that you send me a set of original hoses. Upon receipt of the samples I can try and cross match them with existing tooling, and produce details kit costs for you.[/color]


I hope to get the hoses off my bike this weekend to send away and will let you know when I hear back from SFS and if there is a minimum quantity that has to be ordered.  SFS are selling other bike kits with 8 hoses for £125 to £135 so I would expect the FZS600 kits to be a similar price.


Post here if you are interested in a kit.

So the bike has developed a knocking-"feel" from the chain, and it gets worse whenever I turn hard left/right in slow speeds.


Could it be anything other than the need for a new chain?

Need to put my mind at rest as I got into a bit of a tet-a-tet regarding the enging on the fazer 600 yesterday.

So is a 2002 FZS600 a Carb engine or Fuel injected?
