Hello,


I'm a new user here, my name is Julius and I'm from Munich, Germany. Been reading a lot here and really appreciate this place.


I just got my first gen1 FZS 1000 and since it's a bit cold to right at the moment, I'm thinking about what tinkering I'll be doing.


The first thing is the Ivan MB Kit (along with the other usual mods) and a post on Facebook caught my attention.


Basically, he recommended simply rejetting instead of the Ivan Kit and also claimed:


"Drilling slide lift holes and clipping spring gives fast throttle response but usually at the expense of driveability."


So, I was wondering if there was anybody who has made this experience, and maybe felt that relaxed cruising was not possible anymore or even went back from the Ivan Kit?


For those interested, these is his entire post:

Quote:The FZS1000 carburation can be adjusted to run well in a bike with standard airbox/filter and standard exhaust or slipon (I’m using Akrapovic) without resorting to jet kits. This bike is set to run lean low down and rich up top - found after I had a fuelling check done by a respected dyno operator.
To fix the lean issue I fitted one size larger pilot jets (#17.5) set Pilot screws to 3.1/4 turns out. It’s not ideal but the stock #15 pilot jets can be used with Pilot screws set to 4.3/4 turns out.
Set float height to the standard 13mm which make fuel level the standard 3 to 4mm
Standard needles in standard position 3rd groove from top with the std 3mm nylon needle spacers are fine. Fuelling air/fuel ratio is flat so needle tapers are about right.
I’ve heard that some bikes have 2.5mm spacers? so these may need raising 0.5mm.
Fit 2 size smaller main jets to fix rich top end Main Jets - 127.5 on the outsides cyls 1 and 4, 125 on inside cyls 2 and 3.
That’s it.

I recently got an ELS 4 degree timing advancer. It's awesome, I should have ordered one the day I bought the bike. But I'm wondering if I should run higher octane fuel. Where I live we have 87, 89 and 93. The factory recommends 87 but I always run 89. Should I be using 93 with the timing advanced or will it be fine? I've ran a couple of tanks already and it seems fine, I don't hear any knocking but I do wear earplugs.

I think I'm accepting that my Fazer thou, which has sat in the garage for 18 months + waiting for me to get the balls to take it apart and sort it out, isn't going to be fixed, well, by me anyway.


So, maybe it's time to part ways?


the question is, how much is it worth? Only as much as someone will pay obviously, but ballpark?


2002 black Fazer thou in average to good condition, 42k miles, no recent SH as it's been sat in the nice warm garage. Ivans fitted, some extras such as spare exhaust, givi rack.


But, the carbs are blocked, this is the main issue, I don't feel confident enough to take it apart and sort. I'm sure someone will have the get up to do it. The battery needs replacing, heated grips and horn don't work. No MOT and doesn't run at the moment due to the above.


I was thinking about £750-£900? Does this sound reasonable? Or am I way out. It's hard to value. Also, not sure where to advertise it? Fleabay? Gumtree?

Hello,
When driving on a 1st gear at about 5k rpms the engine is cutting out. On 2nd gear I think it was fine going over 5k rpms.
What could be the issue? TPS ? CDI ? or something else.
It's cutting out the engine at 5k and after it drops to 1k, it starts again with an exhaust backfire. Scared a few people by doing that


Will do a few more tests tomorrow.

I’m trying to work out if my water pump or thermostat are ok.
Took it out for a blast and left it running a while but the fan doesn’t kick in.
How often does the fan come on if left idle usually?
Cheers.
