Hi foccers!

I'm trying to track down the new owner of my old 2004 FZ6 Fazer as I have a number of OE parts to pass on - the bike was fitted with aftermarket parts at time of trade in, and the oe parts are just taking up room in my garage.

The bike was an early 2004 Stone Blue FZ6 AE53 OVZ and was bought around August, last year (2016) possibly in Cambs or neighbouring counties (the Ducati dealer deals with a broker for non-Ducati part-exes)

If you own this bike - get in touch and I'd be glad to pass on the bits.

Cheers

Anyone have a skaggy seat they want rid of? I want a "resculpted" seat (ultra thin foam and hump on pillion section) and also want to keep my stock seat.

Ok guys so I've been lurking the forum a number ofor years and have rear some claiming their bikes have 80od thousand miles on with no gearbox issues.


So I'm wondering is there a way to prevent the gearbox going again ? My other bikes dont have the issue of missing 2nd gear. Which made me wonder about the factory pro shift star, I don't think they make one for the fzs but would replacing the spring wit has a new oe help?




Any info would be much appreciated

This may be of interest to you Gen.2 folk.....

Hi all new to the forum




Had the fazer for a while now though it's been sitting unused as the gearbox gave up about 9 months ago so yesterday I started pulling it apart.


Anyway I'm sure there is a bunch of stuff I could learn from you guys, might also do a video of the tear down


Cheers

Thanks

Bit of a long shot here, but I dropped my fazer in a muddy field on the dragon rally (huge embarrassment there but another story!!) bike came off ok, but the pannier not so much.

Limped home with a bit of duck tape plugging the 3" hole, but before fibre glassing it and making do, I wondered if anyone had an old style e34/36 pannier knocking around that may be surplus or even damaged that I could poach for spares.

Hi, riding home tonight on my 02 plate fzs600 and started to hear a strange pinking raspy kind of noise. When I open the throttle hard it sounds like a piece of tape is in the front wheel spokes/spars. Looked for something loose but there is nothing. When I got home and removed my lid I would say the engine is sounding way more clanky than normal. The oil is half way up the sight glass so ok from that point of view. Just might be an exhaust pinhole or manifold leak but also sounds like it maybe from the engine casing. I have had the bike over 3 years and it has not missed a beat. It has 26k on the clock and seems to be still pulling well. Any advice appreciated, thanks ?
