Well my old 2003 fazer 1000 has just crept over 24500 miles so i suppose i will have to check the valve clearances very soon (not bad for an old girl )
Anything you guys/girls can suggest i get before i start ?
Once i have done them i will have to re balance the carbs i presume ?

Gears/Revs and Advanced Training |

Evening folks,
I know similar questions have been asked, but I'm currently doing the advanced training with IAM and wanted to check as I'm not entirely comfortable.
What revs or gears do you use at different speeds on the FZS600? General revs in any gear when out on a ride?
Before this, I'd normally run at around 4k comfortably, so 3rd at 30mph, 4th or 5th at 40, up to 6th somewhere over 50. I've been pulled up on this & told to be in a lower gear. They recommended I look up a power graph and tried to keep it within peak power, but I didn't find anything definitive. As a rough idea they said at least halfway to redline.
On my last run I tried that, running around 6k, meaning I was in 2nd at 30, almost up to 40. I forget the rest, maybe 3rd up to 50. It felt horrible revving like that, especially in built up areas.
Am I being overly sensitive about my engine, do other folks run at 6k in anything below top gear?

Hi all!
First bike was a Honda CB400. Haven't ridden since 2020 but finally back on two wheels now, with a 2011 FZ6. When the weather's really shit I'm in my Fiesta ST.
I'm based in Manchester (but from down south). If you want to go for a ride around the Peaks/Lakes/N. Wales etc feel free to message me or reply here!

Hey smart folks
As per the title, I want to old-bastardify my fazer and part of that is raising , pulling back the bars.
Anyone know if stanards 30mm risers won't foul the fairing, or do need to fit offset risers upside down to fit ?
Thanks in advance people.

Hi guys.
Im going to change the brake lines front and back and it looks like the original line from the front master cylinder to the front wheel splitter has been changed before.
Does anyone know the original pipes length as the one on there seems a but long?
I like the bike to be as standard as possible but new brake pipes wont be the same, but would like to keep the same lengths of pipe
Cheers
Darren
