silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Deefer666 - 08-02-15
Yamaha Fzs1000, 52 Plate, 37,000 miles, New tyres, new brake pads, Full Givi luggage, tank cover, bellypan, acumen gear indicator, belly pan etc etc. Being sold by a mate of mine for £1600!!!! I would have it myself but its the wrong time of year for me.
Bad points are little split in the fairing by the LHS mirror, and the seat has a split in it but its a ridiculously cheap bike for someone with the cash, there is no haggling, no p/x, no swaps it needs to be £1600
I don't think it'll hang around long at that price, PM me your details and I will pass them on. Bike is located in Kettering

Bugger, I'd have swapped it for my mint Thundercat if he was after a 600
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Deefer666 - 08-02-15
No swaps... I am seriously thinking about borrowing the money so that I can buy it as its a serious investment

Hold the fecking bus! Is this still available? I'm at work at the moment so I can't mess about on here. Let me know ASAP and I will get on line later.
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Deefer666 - 11-02-15
Just PMed the guys number, it was available on Sunday. Give him a ring, just don't mess him about
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Deefer666 - 12-02-15
Did you ring him? I cannot vouch for the bike as I don't know its history, but it looked good on the once over I gave it and I can vouch for the guy selling it.
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Billy Balthorpe - 12-02-15
Yes, phoned him this morning, and as long as it doesn't get sold from underneath me I will be the proud owner of a 26k mile Fazer by Saturday afternoon.
Anyone want to buy a 25k mile CBF1000?
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - old son - 12-02-15
I thought it was 37K miles??
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Billy Balthorpe - 12-02-15
He said 26K, I said that I thought it was 37K, but he said no, 26K. Ive organised a trailer for Saturday and we are off to pick it up early doors. I cant wait!
He did tell me that there may be a problem with the alignment of the lights, probably due to the damage that also caused the crack in the faring? But at 16 ton with 26K on it, if I have to buy another top faring frame, its still worth it!
Now then, R6 shock, Maxton re valve front forks, seat cover, sort the lights and find out how I'm going to get it "Ivanised"(?). Oh, and an MOT.

Sounds like a plan. Have fun and post some pictures.
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Deefer666 - 12-02-15
I had a quick look at the top fairing it didn't appear out of line although he says he thinks it is..... I think he is worrying about nothing. If anything take the fairing in-fills out, undo the bolts at the rear of the fairing and put a bar into the side of the headlight cage where it joins the headstock and give it a tweek.
He rang me earlier to say that your having it.

I take it that you are happy with your purchase then
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - Deefer666 - 13-02-15
If I had the money to hand it would have been mine, but I didn't so I'm glad that its gone to a foccer

At the moment I'm just very excited, I will report back tomorrow on my happiness level when I have the bike and have given it the once over. But I have the feeling that it will be a good Saturday.
By the way, how is this Mk1 Gen Fazer engine for oil consumption? The Genesis/EXUP motors used to use quite a lot under normal circumstances, is the Mk1 R1 motor in these bikes the same?
Re: silly cheap FZS1000 - selling on behalf of a friend - slappy - 13-02-15
When I had my gen1 1000 I changed oil and filter every 2000 miles and in between never had to top it once in 6 years of ownership, but every engine is different so just check the oil level on a regular basis.
