FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - Dead Eye - 14-11-12

This is very much a long shot and just in case anyone can see anything of worth. My bike had a bit of an incident with fire whilst in a garage and it didn't survive :'(

I have no intention on claiming on the insurance since the excess is at least half of what they would pay out and I can't afford to add anything to that to replace it. So, if you want to pick the bike clean be my guest, I'm not charging anything but obviously if you want it posted then that's up to you to arrange. The bike is in Chelmsford so if anyone is local you are welcome to come round

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - Lawrence - 15-11-12

Hi mate, what sort of condition are the brake (front and rear) calipers in? Did the seals survive ok? Also how old were the sprockets?

Any idea what caused it? Sad

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - HarryHornby - 15-11-12

Could always speak to Deefer about plastic welding the fairing back together! :b

Did you narrow the fire down to the coke bath in the end?

I haven't really tried to get rid of it, just figured I'd give you guys a first crack it. You are more than welcome to come and take it away if you want Smile

Calipers weren't too bad before - I'd scrubbed them up less than a month before this happened. Not too sure on the seals, I'll try and get the callipers off and take some photos for you. The sprockets are about a year old and covered about 3 - 4k miles.

As for the cause, nothing confirmed but leading suspicion is still the ultrasonic bath. I don't think the house insurance company are bothering to investigate or anything

Well the rear tyre certainly didn't, but the front managed to - not sure if the plastic well come off though...

Shit that's not good, claiming on your house insurance?
Any chance I could have the little engine cover on the right hand side only down the road in Tiptree

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - Dead Eye - 22-11-12

The house insurance won't cover the bike and the contents insurance rejected the claim for everything else which is ridiculous, not impressed.

I'll see about getting the engine cover off for you and get some pictures for you Smile

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - bmseven - 22-11-12

No worries happy to come and remove it myself.
Why was the contents claim rejected?

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - Dead Eye - 23-11-12

Because the white goods don't belong to us, they belong to the landlord. Bloody stupid but there we are

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - Lawrence - 23-11-12

Just thought, could I get those four things off the ends of the cam covers and the things bolted onto the ends of the radiator too please? Smile

Previous owner decided to paint mine (along with the caliper and fuel flap, including lock :grumble ) with bright red gloss paint.

Re: FREE FZS 600 '99 - Fire Damage - Dead Eye - 23-11-12

Sure, they should whip off fairly easily Smile
