These plugs were fitted new last July about three months after getting Ivanised. The bike has done about 3000 miles since then.

as above have you seen the new colour speed vans,  they look like british gas :eek

I had a set of knackered legs off an FZS1000 with totally seized compression adjusters. One unscrewed fine, other left all it's threads in the leg. Got my hacksaw to work so I could see where they seize.

Recently, when trying to get my FZ6 out of the shed, I found it very difficult to push and found that the front brakes were seeming to drag on the discs.

There's always been a bit of noise when pushing it because of the twin-pot floating caliper design, but this was worse than that.

I've squirted some brake cleaner behind the pads and pushed them back with a screwdriver between them which helped (it doesn't feel like it requires more than the usual effort to push), but I've got an MOT coming up pretty soon and I'm a bit concerned that the front wheel doesn't spin freely enough (if I give it a good shove with my hand it only makes about half a revolution before coming to a stop because of drag from the brakes).

I really don't want to have to disassemble the calipers if I don't have to, so does anyone have any useful suggestions or comments?

Hiya fellas,


As per title really. Got my eyes on a couple of nice modded VW T5/6 campervans and looking to drag a bike around with me on a towbar. Has anyone used/got one from Dave Cooper? They seem good value. Any others I've missed which are better. I know most take trailie bikes and can't locate one that would take the Fazer so advice as always appreciated  :thumbup

Hi

I have a pair of rear footrests, with the rubber covers on.
A pair of R&G bar end weights in perfect condition.

Pick up from Watton Norfolk.

Any one interested before I bung them on flea bay?

PM if you are

Doggy

anyone got a half decent set of forks ?
cheers

Okay I have found my new steed found it from a fellow FOCU member (missed my mint thou from the day I sold it on here!!). My uncle who had bikes for years now wants to come on ride outs bless him; he is retired and only has a budget of £1150. He isn't the tallest at 5,7 so anything from a 250 - 400 - 600 would be good for him; something that's not too heavy and good for medium distances.


We are based in South Wales so closer the better


Cheers

I've found a fairing just after some infill panels now

Hi Guys
