As above, in good but used condition (see pics). Some surface rust on the arms but nothing major. This was on my bike when I bought it but not needed by me.Two keys.
£130, Prefer collection from Co. Durham as I don't know how much postage would be.
Any questions drop me a PM. I don't know how to upload more pictures but can whatsapp if needed.
Thanks.

Hi All, me again! LOL
I'm of an age where varifocals are needed.
What would you guys who wear them recommend for riding? Use your varifocals or use normal glasses/contacts to keep peripheral vision?
Just trying to work out best options and where best to put my money.

Hey im currently restoring my fazer and i was putting petrol into my tank when i spilled some and it destroyed all the paintwork.. ive been looking online and it seems 2k clear coats are the way to go for petrol resistance. does anyone have any recommendations for my from their own experience? also do you think i should spray the frame with the same stuff as I assume some petrol with inevitably get onto it, but should I bother with any of the fairings or fenders etc? thanks

Hi all,
I've finally got round to fitting my Motad system. I had to remove the original system to get to the front of the engine to clean a repaint it while I had the radiator off for a respray cos it had start flaking paint off too. It was overdue a coolant change anyway. So I decided to swap the exhaust while it was off. The headers went straight on with no problem but the link pipe centre stand stop bracket is in the wrong place and the rubber bung misses it entirely. I've had to make a diy bodge to make it work. The silencer fitted okay but the hanging bracket is a PITA to fit. Has anyone else had this problem fitting a Motad? Can post pics if anyone's interested.
thanks

So, we are all here because of the Yamaha Fazer but which one is the best?
I have had several FZS600 and regret selling my first one but have also ridden the FZ1. The FZ1 didn't do anything for me. It just felt big and cumbersome. It was quick but was not the bike for me. I have sat on the FZ6 and the FZS1000 but never ridden them.
So which ones have you ridden, which was the better one and why?

So I have had to return 2 sets of ajustable levers from amazon because the pivot point on the cliutch lever is either to big or not big enough to take the spacer from oem lever.
So does anyone have a set of adjustable levers for the FZ1/FZS series or can recommend where I get some. Budget is below £75, Im not interested in anything that costs significatly more than stock (eg pazzo).
many thanks.

During the ride home from work this past Tuesday I noticed a rattling noise which only manifests when the clutch is fully disengaged, like when I'm on the brakes and downshifting multiple times before a red light stop. I didn't notice anything on the Tuesday morning ride in. There's nothing when the bike is idling (clutch in or out) or under power. I feel it's coming from the clutch or engine area but it's hard to isolate it as I have to be moving to hear it. Bike is an 08 FZ6 S2 model. I'll get it looked at in the next couple of weeks but thought I's see if you foccers had any ideas what it might be and how serious, as in, should I stop riding until it's sorted?

| Fuel Sensor\sender unit compatibility |

Hi - hoping someone can help.
Have an 2002 FZS 600, recently got back on the road after a (ahem) 9 year hiatus in the garage (kids, family stuff, life etc). Fixed various issues including new immobilser, rusty tank (thanks to some some interesting electrolysis videos on YouTube!), new fuel hose, added some Redex to the tank and balanced thr carbs... she runs really quite well coinsidering the neglect.
One thing I'm struggling to resolve is that the fuel sensor came to pieces during the project. Not a big issue, don't really need one as long as I remember a manual check regularly. However the ornage low fuel light is permanently on which is distracting and, while I could stick some tape over it, a new sensor would be preferable. Only they're like rocking horse manure and stupidly expensive.
Does anyone know whether the fuel sensor\sender unit from an FZS1000 would be compatible? They look to be similar and are available at far more reasonable prices!
Thanks in advance
Sqwim
