A few days ago, the right footpeg on my FZ6 sheared off. I've got a replacement, but I'm unable to remove the old pin. 

I've used a Dremel to cut off the head of the old securing split pin, but, despite the application of lots of WD 40 and 3-in-1 penetrating oil and tapping it with a rubber headed mallet, the old pivot pin just doesn't want to shift.

I don't have access to a blow-torch etc and I don't think a cigarette lighter is up to the job to heat it and help it move.

Anyone got any useful suggestions for how to shift it?

I use this stuff once a year, and have found it to be one of the only liquids that actually does a good job.
Plus it makes a change to get a good deal out of Halfords for once.


Just been pointed out that it's 50% off in store.

I got a set of these

They bolt on to the end of the handlebar weights no problem but I am having problems with how to attach to the handle bar at the other end. The metal attachment strip provided is too short to reach the mirror mount on my handlebars/brake/clutch lever assembly.

But even if it did, I don't know what size bolt fits the mirror mount! any suggestions on how else I can attach the hand guard on that side of it as I am stuck on how to proceed.

Hi All,


Just wondering if it's possible to do a day trip to the TT as foot passengers?  I know it would be a mega long day, getting to Liverpool, ferry, racing, ferry, home but can it be done?


If on foot, where would you get to watch the racing from that's walkable from the ferry>


Has anyone done it?


Desperate to go one year but can't stay overnight because we have young children who still need to go to school, I reckon we could farm them out for a day though 

Argh!
Got it done but that valve clearance check is pure:evil !

Hours of work to find out that something is actually fine!  :\
Oh well, at least it's only every 25K!

Not sure why he's having a dig at the car driver, it wasn't his fault he was being held up, although i didn't see any brake lights when it flew up to the other car.
Maybe he just didn't appreciate the joy ride.

Hey foccers, need a little advice, started the bike and its running lumpy as shit (sounds like its only running on 3 cylinders) once warmed up it runs OK and sounds OK. However only 3 of the four header pipes seem to be getting hot. The one on the right in the picture doesn't get anywhere near as hot. Would a new set of plugs sort this?

Hi guys


Looking for a 2001 FZS600 rear hugger in either red, black or carbon fibre.


Please leave a reply if selling one.


Thanks guys

As some of you may know I have been having trouble with a burning smell on my bike. I was getting quite worried as I was thinking something was burning up BUT after another soggy ride this morning I was wiping her down and found staines on my link pipe.
After closer inspection I've found a more or less completely shredded pipe. I'm assuming it's some kind of breather pipe as it runs down behind the brake pedal and doesn't have an end on it?
As you can see by the pics I've got it is an absolute mess? Looks like wolverines been at it haha
The troubling thing now is A. Why is it spewing so much stuff out? Seems to be like white lardy looking stuff
And B. How hard is it going to be to replace ??
