Ok so picked up my 04 gen one with 30k up yesterday, had a brief test ride before I put it in the van and it's lively enough, taxed and insured so first proper ride now through the Wye valley, about forty miles round trip. Did notice yesterday ex ups a little rattly and clutch bites a bit high and quick, hopefully nuffin problematic, gonna strip the exup out later in the week, but service record shows it was last stripped out, cleaned and greased  3,000 miles ago in 2014. Just to refresh my memory, should it check itself out when you turn the ignition on? Feels good to have a fazer thou again, even before I've ridden it...

Now forgive this question but never had a Fazer before my last bike was a Blackbird, but do you need to remove the tank on the fazer to get the plugs out to check them

and /or change the air filter

still waiting for my Haynes to come in the post

Thanks guys

Paul

You can model your body position on a range of bikes, I've put my values in on a boxeye, it's an accurate representation.

well that's it, in 7 days we emigrate to Australia, hence why ive not been on here... we have a list that each time we tick off it gets longer.
anyway the bike goes in the crate on Tuesday and wont see the light until some time in January.. that's if some pirate aint buzzing around on it.


are there any aussie members on here in the Perth area??


its been fun biking in the uk for the last 32 years on and off...now to do it in sunny climes.

This is going to cost a few bob to put right. On the owners own admission he has had the ECU reflashed to enhance performance. So is not going anywhere fast now is it!!! Well fucked.

My mates fazer 1000 gen 1 sometimes when stationary at lights and the engine is getting hot, some of the lights start to flash, it stops when pulling away.... Any ideas before I pull it apart.

Can anyone remember off hand what colour the live is on the coil,  thanks

I ordered four float bowl rubber gaskets for my FZS600 from Wemoto yesterday morning.
They arrived lunchtime today. Good service !!
