Should the side stand have a wavy washer to take up free play?  mine seems to have a lot of movement although bolt is tight

Help!! has anyone had problems removing the flywheel on an FZS1000? I've tightened it as much as I can and been hitting it with a hammer, I have even bought the Yamaha puller but it won't budge.
Am I missing something? Has anyone got any tips?
I only need it off to split the casings and change a bearing.

Hello,


There are 2 holes in front of the carb, is there a screw or jet that could be blocked? As the 3rd cylinder is cold at idle, but it's fine when going above 5000rpm.
I did rebuild the carbs, but not sure if I've seen a screw in one of those holes. Will have to take the carbs out again  :rolleyes

Just found a video and looks like that could be the issue.
Thanks

You ask how much for this once in a year extravaganza and what do you get for your wonga.


Well let me tell you for a small amount of £120
You get a bunk for the weekend
You get ALL THE BLOODY FOOD YOU CAN EAT
You get ALL THE BLOODY ALCHOL YOU CAN DRINK
You get a great band
And the most important part you get FIRE LOTS OF FIRE


Now if your camp and fancy camping that’s great you can do that for a small cost of £80
Which also gets the above STUFF

Hi all, looking to upgrade the screen on my fiancée’s Mk1 600. Before someone helpfully suggests I use the search function I realise there are topics on this already but I have a bit of a more specific question so apologies for that.

In my experience the MRA screens are generally the best choice so I’ve been looking at them. Now there’s the touring screen and the touring screen with the adjustable spoiler thing - she’s around 5’7 so I don’t know if the spoiler thing is necessary or just adding more wind noise unnecessarily? We have an intercom to talk to each other and with the standard screen it’s largely useless over about 60 with the wind noise round her helmet, particularly on the left side where the intercom module thing is mounted. She doesn’t want to have to ‘look through’ the screen to ride.

Does anyone have experience with these screens for a rider at this sort of height.

The other options are ‘double bubble’ type screens but I’ve always felt these are better for racing crouch type riding? She’s not long had her licence and as such more of a sit up/touring style rider.

Any help or suggestions appreciated as I’m looking to get it ordered for her upcoming birthday.

Cheers all, Darren

Hi guys,


I'm genuinely gutted to be posting my beloved FZ1 for sale but sadly it must go. I've had the bike since 2011 and I've loved and cared for it for my entire ownership. I've used it less and less over the last few years and this year I don't think it'll even come out of the garage due to having such a busy year planned. I'd always said that I'd keep it regardless unless I needed the money for something and there are now a few things that the money could be useful for so keeping this in the garage not being used just isn't sustainable. Besides - this is a bike that needs to be on the road giving someone else some smiles!


So, the bike...it's a Red/Black FZ1-SA which is the ABS model and it's a completely sorted machine in every way. It's in beautiful condition and I've always kept this pristine regardless of cost....she's my leisure bike that's always clean and ridden for fun. I'm posting it here before I post anywhere else to give you Foccers 1st dibs, especially as you'll know the in's and out's of these machines and appreciate that any issues such as fuelling have been addressed when you read these specs.

I'll put a new MOT on it before purchase btw

Here we go then, specs/mods...

• Power Commander 3 with custom fuel map (custom map file will be provided)

• Uprated stator flywheel - Preventative measure to replace well documented risk of failure from Yamaha design.
  
• vSystem ScottOiler
  
• USB Power Outlet
  
• Motech Tank bag with lock in system
  
• Motech rear panniers
  
• Fully integrated alarm system.
