Just got me a Black 99 600 on a cat D, after a stolen/recovered.
Replaced locks, sorting a few bent bits after they threw it in a ditch. No great timescale to fix, as have a Virago to ride! Posted a wanted for headlamp frame. Was considering streetfighter, but have found HID's installed, so keeping the lot. I have the original fairing, replaced screen and will do some plastic crack fixing in due course.
Has nice stainless downpipes, but yet to try and start as waiting for replacement clocks to arrive.
I took this off my '03 Fazer bought recently as I manage well enough on my commute with a daysack.
It's all in good order, the box has no scuffs or marks of any note, and the metalwork is in good order too. inevitably the "pin" at the rear that locks into the box has lost it's paintwork, otherwise it's all good. All fixings, two keys and the original manual included.
Given that this lot, new, is close to £200 on t'bay, £100 gets it. Not keen to split this (unless I get interested parties for box and rails obvs)
I'd prefer you collected, though we can maybe negotiate a meet if not too far, I'm in Ilkley (LS29) but work in Elland (HX5) and sometimes Ripon (HG4). O[/size]therwise I'll work out a rate for postage. [/size]
Photos on request if you're interested (meanwhile I'll try and figure how to upload some...)
Hi
just thought i would mention that a FZ1 rider and me a FZS rider are going to be doing a ride from John-o groats to lands end on 12th july to try and raise money for the lincolnshire blood bikes and the lincs and notts air ambi, we will be setting up a go fund me page i will post on here when it's up and running, please sponsor us if at all possible it is for a very good cause, thank you regards.
I've bought a Yamaha rack for the fazer 8. Has anyone fitted one before? Just trying to figure out how much of the plastic to cut out and what's the best way of doing it. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Looking at an 05 thou for sale with FZ1 on the fairing, not Fazer. I'm sure that I read somewhere that this was the American model, does that mean it is restricted or different in any way other than cosmetics ?
Cheers

Got this on Saturday morning, just had a bit of time to wheel out for a quick pic. 2004, nice condition, loads of service history, 2 previous owners, looks bog standard but have a receipt for a change of fork oil & the forks dropped 5mm. I have the previous owners old V5C so i'm going to drop him a line to see if there are any less obvious mods that have been done.
looking at selling the old girl on within the next couple of weeks, i'm leaving the country soon and will buying another bike when i'm settled and steady, plus bikes are cheap where i'm going (Guernsey) so i can pick up a low mileage example of something for not much outlay.
so,, she's a 1998 model on an S plate, just coming up to 30,000 miles. she has a rad guard, fender extender, tribo seat cover, stainless down pipes and carbon effect end can, she also has headlamp shields that are not currently fitted.
the top fairing has been cut down due to too many cracks ( she was a cat D a few years back and had cosmetic damage and the original fairing was repaired/glassed up but had cracked over the years) so I trimmed it back and secured it firmly.
she has 8 months MOT and has just had a new battery, all tyres and consumables are in top notch condition ( the rear tyre has about 300 miles on it BT010 Battlax) and she will also come with original mirrors and bars plus the fairing brackets etc.
I know that some people expect the world for their bikes and refuse to shift on a price that they have in mind, i have no clue of its worth and trust you guys to give me an honest opinion of its value.
so , what price should i be looking for guys? it's going to be listed on here when i have no more need of it :'(
