Hi,


I had the exup of the bike to clean and get unseized. Decided to get new Slinky cables too, as thats what looked to be on the bike already.


I thought i'd taken a picture to show what one was correct for upper and lower at both Servo and at valve, it would appear not or its missing.


Anyone know? Are the different lengths?

Hi ,just got back from  having  the fazer mot. The tester said  the chain was losse, and it is.The hand book says 45-55mm of play but I am sure some where  on this site I read that it is best to have the chain a bit slacker than the hand book says,  or was this some thing that I have mistaken?

As above, no damage, follows the line of the original can.£80 plus postage.
dunno how to post pics , not had much luck before, sorry.

Hi, has anyone fitted the Givi PLXR rack to their FZ1 that has a tail tidy on it ?

If yes, is there any butchering required ?


Many thanks.

Pretty much ever since my FZ6 has needed an MOT, I've had Advisories on the Headset Bearings (either loose or notchy).

The next MOT is coming up soon and I'm thinking it might be good to get them seen to (and replaced if needed) but I've heard that it can take around 4 hours and cost a couple of hundred quid or so for labour and given that I'm porbably going to need a new rear tyre as well, that's going to be very expensive

So can anyone confirm if that is how much it's likely to cost and if there's anything else I can do to get them sorted (or, at least, stop it failing the MOT)?

I'm changing back from renthals to OE bars and found out that the bar end weights are not standard ones and looking for a set if anyone got some good condition ones to sell ??

Ive being doing a search on here about gen 1 fork springs / fork upgrades and it all seems well confusing as to which way to go/ which brand etc, linear or progressive
Has anyone got any recommendations which would be a good way to go with them ? I've got an R6 shock from Devilsyam on it and now want to improve the front but the budget isn't unlimited.
Can I get a decent improvement for £200-£250 ? For that I'm assuming it'll be just springs ( fitted by mechanic not me)  and a change of fork oil which adds the question to what grade oil ??
Main use will be solo with a the odd touring trip with the mrs here and there and I'm no racer but like a bit of spirited riding every now and then.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi folks,
Just signed up after buying a yr2000 600 silver with 44k to get back into biking.
It had been parked up for over 2yrs but passed test after rear caliper was had new seals. Tyres are advisory but was going to change them anyways.

You seem like a friendly bunch so looking forward to looking and posting in next few weeks as I try to get it looking less Rat bike. :rollin
