On the spur of the moment I’ve decided to visit the Northwest 200 and wondered if anyone has been and could offer some advice to save me wasting valuable time?
I’m going with my two (adult) boys who have very little interest in bikes so don’t want to tie myself into the inner circuit.

Long shot but does anyone have a set pf pannier racks for a fox ye they want to part with for some cash ?


Out riding again after a long cruel winter and doing some trips soon.


Cheers!

Hi people, just wondering if anyone else has experienced high speed vibrations on a Gen 1 thou that start around 100 mph upwards (at the Isle of Man before anyone starts saying anything!) I’ve checked wheel bearings, head bearings, swing arm, replaced chain & sprockets, checked engine mounting bolts, tyre pressures, etc but all ok. I took the wheels to my local tyre fitters just to re check the balance and all is ok. I don’t think it’s an engine internal vibration as it pulls through all the revs to the red line no problem. I’m stumped for ideas now. I’ve checked the mirrors and fairing mounts too. The only change is new ish (400 miles ago) Michelin Road 5 tyres. Never really noticed it with the 4’s.

[size=0.7em]First time I checked the valves on a bike, today. Previous owner told me it had been done but didn't seem sure. As I was removing the AIS, it seemed like a good time to do it and DeWoody's video gave me the confidence to do it.[/size]

[size=0.7em]Three of the exhaust valves are very slightly out of spec:[/size]

[size=0.7em]Is this something which needs taking care of immediately or can I ride it like this maybe for another season?[/size]

Hi
Further to my post on another page about having my FZS600 Fazer stolen, it has since been recovered trashed, so thoughts turn to a replacement.
Thinking of a Fazer 8, but want to know what to look out for.
Things I've heard about so far are the rear shock being awful and the dip beam only acting on one light.
Suspension mods on 13 plate and later bikes.
Anything else I should know about.


I've read that they were unpopular when new as were quite expensive, but the second hand market shoul dhave ebvened things up by now.
Looking at getting around 13 plate

Hi Guys and Gals can you help me out please.. I am desperate for a set of Engine bars does anyone know where I can get a set please..  ?

Had my Fazer 600 lifted from outside my house last night sometime between 11pm and 1am.
Reg number is LF02ZFA, if anyone gets offered it or parts from it please inform the police or contact me direct.

Hey all, anyone know where I can source a single one? One of mine has been mullered solid in place, finally got it out and replaced with something that works ok but I’d like the correct one ideally.

I’ve messaged a firm called carbtech on eBay who I’ve dealt with before but not heard back as yet. Fowlers only list a set of four at 50 odd quid, which I’d rather not spend on three I don’t need.

Any pointers appreciated as always.

Cheers, Darren
