I removed my baffle earlier just to see what it sounded like and decided to leave it out for the day but while out riding I seemed to notice signs of lean running again? Pops on deceleration, revs hanging slightly and smells rather hot around the downpipes?
I'm just wondering if removing the baffle can make that much difference or is it just a more noticeable underlying condition?

It's a 2007 fz1n with all the mods except flies (they are still standard)

I was planning to re-paint the rear subframe on the Fazer that I bought in August, due to a bit of rust around the footrest hangers.


Because the chain was right on the wear limit I thought I'd fit a new chain and sprockets at the same time, and I've just found out that SOME F*CKER HAS WELDED THE FRONT SPROCKET NUT ON.  :eek


The sprocket's lose on the shaft and the nut has a bloody great lump of weld all over the end of it.


Either way, looks like the engine's going to have to come out a year earlier than I'd planned. What the hell is wrong with some people?


Going to the shop now to buy beer.

An article in this months Vintage Motorcycle Club book drew my attention to this.

Apparently France has introduced a new law making it compulsory to wear gloves when riding a motorcycle.

Police are investigating Mick Hucknall regarding claims of sexual bestiality involving rabbits.

A police spokesman says that they were tipped off by the lyrics of his songs........................................wait for it.......................


"Bunny's too tight to mention" and "Holding back the ears"

so I have the fazer 600 and fazer 1000 and between the two I actually prefer riding the 600.
Am I weird, if so please help!

on my way to work last night ( on my fazer thou ), ( blue, the fastest colour ) I stopped in a petrol station near me, it was 9pm.
They wouldn't let me have petrol until I paid them up front.
They showed me a laminated notice allegedly by the the met police which said bikes must pay for fuel after 9pm.
I told them to go f*ck themselves and that it was a discriminatory practice.
What like it's only bikes that steal fuel and only after 9pm. WTF. Poxy BP corporate dictator muthaf*ckers.
Anyone else had this shit.

Just looking at doing up FZS600 51 plate

Even though I have devileyam R6 shock fitted I am getting a wobble from the handle bars while accelerating at high speed.

Is there a relatively simple way to reduce or better, cure this without going down the steering damper route..?
