Hi guys, bit of help needed please, gen 1 fazer.
There was play in the forks which started last year on tour. No problem thought I, headstock bearings could do with replacement. Just replaced them but still there is play. Anyone that's done this before got ideas what it could be?
Tried messing with the bearing preload, tighter or looser it makes no difference. Pinch bolts all tight. It makes me think it could be something else but for the life of me can't see anything else it can be!
Still, at least it's not booked in for mot tomorrow morning ?
Any help and suggestions greatly appreciated.

picked my fzs1000 up weekend and now having to move across the forum from fzs600 to thou. 2 issues i've discovered, the left hand lower fork adjusting screw is proper mullard and seized, so has anyone tried drilling these out and what lies behind, as in will the fork oil pour out, currently soaking it every day with oil but hold out no hope. Other issue is handling not to my liking, have played with rear shock and bottom adjuster was 43 clicks out?? , so have it currently set on 10 out which improved things but still not right for me, so on checking it has rear tyre of 190, looking at specs its meant to be 180, also they are metzeler sportac. so, any ideas why someone would change to 190, as that may account for it seemingly dropping into corners. also are these tyres any good as i've never really been a fan of metzelers, will be used all year round , so whats more important to me is a good rain tyre

| TPS woes….. |

TPS sensor woes….
So, my taco was giving me the 0-3000 rpm TPS sensor issue reading. I purchased a jarg one from Korea, it didn’t seem to work. I then bit the bullet and have purchased an official brand new one from yambits (£100 quid).
I have followed the instruction to put the bike into the mode for TPS calibration/adjustment but am still only getting the 0-3000 reading as if it’s not connected or it’s faulty.
The bike is a 2000 FZS600 and am now wondering what the likelihood is the instrument cluster is goosed.
Does anyone know where the connection from the sensor goes? Is it connected via the wiring loom to the instrument cluster or does it connect to somewhere else on the engine?
This is my first bike and am going through learning to maintain and fix it myself, but this is tipping me over the edge!
Any advice welcome! Thanks in advance.
