Hi guys just a quick one which I bet you've all heard before, which brake pads are best to use GG or HH? Or can anyone recommend a good brand to someone who doesn't hang around on a bike but not a nutter! Lol

Last few months i have been having a on and off starting problem,sometimes turns over ok then all of a sudden i just get a click coming from the battery area,if i put in gear and slightly bump in gear it will start when i hit the button.Not sure if it is starter motor,battery or some electrical issue, anyone had this or similar.

Battery charges ok and sits at 12.6 on the optimate but its over 10 years old?
Clicking sounds like it is coming from fusebox area down by battery.
Oh and its a 98 fazer 600

Hi guys


Just had a full service on my FZS600 and she is running perfectly, however tyres were a little flat, the garage bumped them up but I forgot to ask what they should be (Front and back)


I've heard it depends on the rider though so I thought I'd ask you lot what psi I should have in front and rear tyres


I'm 6 foot 2 and weigh 72kg (11.3 stone) (158lbs) What tyre pressure should I be riding on the front and back?


Hope you guys can help, thanks in advance

Hello,


A few months back having grown tired of my old VFR, I swapped it for a 2004 FZR 1000 with rethnal bars. Loved it but like my wife after a bit its started to drive me mad.....only kidding dear!!.


When I go to start it (the bike not the wife) all is good, it makes all the correct clicks and fires into life on all 4 cylinders. It then just dies and won't start again. It turns over but it just refuses to fire up.


If I leave it for a few hours it will start again but then just dies as before. I've replaced the plugs and checked the carbs are getting fuel which they are. It's got 40,000 on the clock and an unknown history, however it looks in great condition so someone has looked after it at some point.


I would be greatful for any ideas on how to resolve the issue


Cheers


Ross

Anyone else going?

Hi Folks, can anyone suggest what method they have used to remove front wheel and forks from my 600.
I need to repolish the fork bottoms and change the fork oil but i cant jack the front up under the engine due to the down pipes being in the way. Any ideas gladly welcomed, ta.

Hello Peeps


So, after 15 years the original downpipes are finally holed.


What's the current thinking on the best stainless replacements, in terms of fitment and value?


I've read in back-posts that Delkevic can be slightly misaligned.  Anybody back this up or otherwise?


Motad seem to fit very well, but have gone bonkers with pricing; £300 !!


Anybody used Black Widow? 


Cheers,
Andy

Hi,


I have had the Exup valve dismantled for servicing, turned out to be a pig of a job as bolts were seized. I have managed to get them out with help of a friend. I am now looking at building back up, but the plate seems like a really tight fit, like i would need to tap back on?


How loose should the valve plate be?

Hi can anyone help me with finding out the paint code.
The bike is fz6 (05 plate)  red in colour,  looking at spraying seat cowl and rear hugger. Or do I powder coat the wheels red instead.
