[size=1em]Hey peepz[/size]

[size=1em]Im replacing the oil, seals and bushings in the forks of my '02 1000, i have done seal replacements and rebuilds [/size]more times than I ever should have had too (wheelies can get expensive) with all my bikes over the years without many issues [shadow=red,left]UNTILL NOW![/shadow]

[size=1em]when putting the forks back together and driving the seals home, the outter/upper fork guide bushing[/size] is not going into its recess in the fork lower properly, which obviously stops me from setting the seal properly and installing the retaining clip. :wall  Everything seems straight and square it just will not fit. The bushing was even put in the freezer the help with installation.

[size=1em]The bushes were ordered from brook suspention (NOX brand), far as im aware the parts are correct and are the new spec bushes that supersede yamahas original spec. [/size]

[size=1em]Lower/Inner/slide BUSHING[/size]
[size=1em]Thickness 1.00mm [/size]
[size=1em]Outer diameter 43.70mm[/size]
[size=1em]Inner diameter 41.70mm[/size]
[size=1em]Hight 20.00m[/size]

[size=1em]Upper/Outter/guide BUSHING[/size]
[size=1em]Thickness 2.00mm[/size]
[size=1em]Outter diameter 43.00mm[/size]
[size=1em]Inner diameter 47.00mm[/size]
[size=1em]Height 12.00mm[/size]

[size=1em]Anyone had an issue with these sizes or brand. [/size]

Evening All,


I just sold my Aprilia and now looking for later model FZ1. I've had a good read through the forum-lot's of great information but can't find an answer to my question.


Am I right in thinking the last ones were produced in 2012? I'm looking for a blue/ white one but seen them up to 2014- old dealer stock?


Also engine colours- did earlier ones have silver ones or was it an option? I found a post about exhaust end can colours so that's a great help.


Thanks!

Now sold.

Hello All,
I forgot to take photos while disassembled the bike, now I don't know where went the two rubber hoses, which comes from the fuel tank. I know theres a black rubber funnel on the later bikes, but mines is the old one, with two longish, separate hoses plugged into the bottom of the tank, and they go towards the ground...somewhere. So, anybody has some photos, or can explain it, where to route these, please? Left, right, between the carbs, or? Also, I'm not sure about the two overflow hoses of the carbs, too... these are too short, to reach below the swingarm.... any ideas?
Thank you in advance!

WANTED:


Gen1 EXUP Valve with bushes & face plate.


Pm with pics / price / location.


Cheers

Hi all
Bike failed mot on throttle sticking, replaced the cables ,W.D the spring on the carbs
Still sticking.


any ideas amigos ?

To anyone thinking of going down the BoosterPlug route....read on.


I watched AndyManCam's YouTube video where he installed one on his FZ1 and thought I'd try and find one for the FZ6. Well, it turns out that they are £129 a go brand new.....but the internal gubbins on all models appears to be the same. Just the plugs at the ends are different for each motorcycle model.


So, my solution isn't quite plug'n'play but very close.


I picked up a BoosterPlug off Marketplace for £60 and then grabbed some no-strip wire connectors off Amazon for £8 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07DK7HBKR


It is as simple as it sounds - cut the female plug off the BoosterPlug (with a good 8cm of wire attached) and attach a connector at each cut end. Cut the female plug off the AIT sensor and swap 'em over whilst keeping the wire colours in the right orientation.


Works a treat! Much smoother acceleration and less jerkiness when opening up the throttle from idle in 2nd gear.


Still got half a tank of fuel so I'll fill up at some point and log the mileage for that full tank on Fuelly and see if mpg changes. By all accounts it doesn't change at all, but I'll find out for myself.

This topic has been moved to FZS600 Fazer.

Hi all


An Seat for sale - this has been modified by someone prior to me buying it. It is probably 1/2 to 3/4" lower than standard, some of the foam has been removed which has got rid of the angled edges of the original seat. Whoever did it made a good job of it.


Purchased for my wife to ride the Fazer, she never did, but I used the seat all the time as I found it more comfortable and preferred it to the standard.


£90 including postage


Best wishes


Timbo
