Hi guys
Just came back from riding to, around and back from ireland, did 1236 miles in total, over those miles some oil seem to disappear and i needed to top it up with 10w40 semi synthetic oil (not happy about this) and also my chain kept getting slack.
Therefore I now need to do an oil change and want to know flat out what is the best oil for my 2001 Yamaha FZS 600 Fazer?
And what is the best chain and sprocket set as well please?
Hope you guys can help.

New clutch woes - help! |

Just swapped on some new EPC clutch plates and heavy duty springs; soaked plates for an hour, refitted all plates as original, judder spring on 2nd plate, pressure plate in the single position where it sits flush, torques all up as per Haynes book (8Nm spring bolts), put everything back together, fresh oil (Castrol Power1 bike oil, 10w40 semi), adjusted clutch cable at sprocket cover and lever, just a spot of free play at lever. But now I'm having a lot of trouble with the clutch action:
The clutch lever is really stiff, really hard to pull all the way in.
When I engage 1st, the bike starts to pull forward immediately before I've let any clutch out, I have to hold the front brake to keep it stationary.
When I pull the lever all the way back, I still can't get it into neutral again, I have to hit the kill switch.
I've been trying to adjust the cable cable/lever this way and that, but still can't improve matters.
Help! What have I done wrong?!

Big hello to all current members.
Has the bike a wk, a[size=78%]lready started stripping to tidy a few areas up.[/size]
Surprising what you inherit from previous ownership.
Just had to plastic weld the fairing infill panels up, some rough arse has had a go but made a pigs ear of it.
My body shop yrs have paid off, panels repaired & in primer.
Just gorra unpick old alarm loom, new tyres on this wk, tax end of mth then I can play with suspension setup, looks like an R6 shock is on the cards asap, rides ok, front end is terrible tho, new tyres will help, then out with the tools.
