Refitted the freshly painted downpipes, freshly painted horn, hopefully stopped it 'marking it's spot' and put her up for sale!

The bike was accelerating faster with less throttle with my old battered OEM filter. And the sound was louder with the old one, go figure?

Not sure what it is but I am really tempted to get back the old filter  :rolleyes

Is it possible the new filter just filters better?

Started the Fazer up today for the first time since about October last year after a failed attempt last week. It was an inconvenience for it to say the least but after a couple minutes it was running sweet as ever.


Has anyone had any experience with these downpipes? Tempted to get a set to go with the end can I put on last year, will they improve anything other than looks....acceleration, sound etc...?

Replaced the front wheel bearings, now steers and brakes much more predictably!

I got two set off them, both out of alignment the second set worse than the first and sent them back, I really think their jig is misaligned and the manager had the cheek to tell me I did not know how to fit a set of down pipes.
The left 2 would fit perfectly but right two would not line up properly. With all four lined up the collector was catching on the centre stand and would not line up the the mounting hole on the frame.
The girl on the reception desk actually emailed me apologising for their actions and I told her she had my deepest sympathy for having to work with an idiot of a manager who was not prepared to listen to a customer even though I had sent him good quality photographs of the problem.
Finally got hold of the so called manager on the phone and told him what I thought of him and his customer service after being refunded minus the cost of returning the pipes.  :grumble He hung up  :lol
I bought a set from Motad, no problem fitting them.

New can.

Delkevic 450mm Oval Stainless Steel Silencer to fit FZS600 FAZER (1997-2003)  KIT0604 - the reasons I've got this one: I like it, its shiny. Cheap £119. Comes as a compltely full kit: the oval can, link pipe, all brakets, inside seal on the link pipe, even red tube with red silicone. Quality kit.

450mm keeps the sound low hence I keep the baffle in too. Happy neighbours - probably :-)  and bonus no headache for me too LOL.

INB4 if you want low deep rumble sound get V twin bike. IL4s are for screaming...

Getting the old girl ready for no limits trackday on the 28 th Feb, fitted a reverse shift gear lever to see if that makes it any more racy ha ha.

Collected my Wilbers rear shock yesterday and installed today. All bolts torqued up. Rear wheel refitted, chain tension adjusted, rear calliper (rebuilt) refitted & bled. Tyre pressures adjusted, battery trickle charged. Fired up outside before the rain arrived & ran her up to temperature.
Next job will be to remove & repaint centrestand. Front forks need overhaul then ready for riding again!  :lol
