Any one got any Renthal bars (ultra lows) seem to be a favourite.
Silver or Black prefered.
Just bought the Fazer 1000 & it's on standard bars, I'm not loving the shape, bit keen on the old wrists.


Yorkshire area if poss.

Hiya fellas,

Anyone up for a cheap Fazer ?


Bike has MOT until August 14th, need to find paper ticket but shows on the government website.


Has done 53,000 but still runs as sweet as. Does sound a bit tappety due to waiting for camchain tensioner to click up.

Silver in colour.


Has good PR3's fitted.


Braided hoses fitted front and back.


EBC pads front and back.


Topbox and Givi rack.


Has 2 keys for bike and one for topbox.


Hugger fitted. All the rest is standard.


Oxford heated grips fitted.


LED spot lights fitted. Headlight mod done.


Done around 500 miles since recent C&S replacement and service.


Has a bit of damage to offside fairing and small tank dent.


Even if not for you then you may know someone.


Bike is in Wokingham, Berkshire (will post pics as soon as)


Cheers


Jeff

Hi Peeps.


Not long since joined FOCU.
Some interesting reading on here.
Upgraded from a very modified & tuned Kawy ZRX 1136R.


In it's place is a Silver 53 plate bog standard Fazer 1000.
Way better bike IMHO.


My question is, which year R6 shock works best on a Fazer 1000 & what's the correct length of the dog bones required? As I've heard R6 shocks are a tad shorter, so I assume different length dog bones will be required to bring ride height back to original.
I may fabricate my own? but if anyone can recommend a supplier I'll try that option if the price is right.


Thanks in advance, any info is mucho appreciated..

Pulled the swingarm from the ZZR and surprise surprise the needle rollers are shot

A kit is about £50 inc new seals etc but the seals are servicable so really just need a set of bearings

Anyone out there used non stock bearings and if so how did you get on and where did you buy them from (I know its not the same bike)

Well now, after 9 solid years of Fazer ownership the old girl has gone  :'( hopefully she'll carry on for a further 50,000 miles & the new owner will register on the site.
As for me, I've decided to give another Yamaha - the sports tourer FJR1300 a go.  Thought I'd try something completely different...might need to start weight training tho  :lol

Will still be on the forum, probably still keep a couple of R6 shocks in reserve for latecomers and might try & get another batch of front fork emulators from the States.
Thanks all, it's been a great experience

Hi all, long shot but has anyone got a Baglux/Bagster tank cover for sale, ideally in grey? There are a couple on jizzbay at the moment but thought i'd ask all you Foccers first. Cheers. D.

I know plenty of foccers do MT09 nowadays.

There has been a recent MT09 handlebars recall.

FYI you can check your MT09 here:

https://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/services/...index.aspx

You can get there all recall letters in pdf. Useful if yours is used like mine and you can't receive letters from Yamaha.

The nice bit is you will see there all recalls for your specific VIN.

There has been some shift and transmission issues, and headlight recalls with some VINs too.
