UPDATE - For Sale - 2002 Gen 1 Fazer 1000 Black with touring kit - rob_h - 26-02-17
Good afternoon guys,
Just a quick introduction. I used to frequent this amazing site, but have to admit I haven't been on here for probably 7/8 years. I cannot adduce my account details for love nor money, and the fact that the site allowed me to register with my age-old email address suggests my account was removed due to inactivity.
I have owned this bike for nearly 12 years. It has taken me to Rome, Barcelona, Milan, San Marino, Paris, and an array of places in between. It is an amazing bike, but quite simply it has hardly left my garage for 5 years. Looking back at the MOT history, I can see it's done about 1000 miles in the last 5 years. Two reasons for this; firstly I have a 5 year old little girl and don't have the spare time to go touring, and secondly I have an R1 track bike that I use for my adrenaline hit.
I have been making excuses for years not to sell it - maybe I will go touring again, or maybe my car will break down and I need to use it for work etc. The time has finally come to part ways. I'm going to be very honest in my advert below so as not to waste anyone's time.
UPDATED to show new MOT expiry date and new brake piston seals
Bike Make : Yamaha
Bike Model : FZS 1000
Year : 2002
Price : £2,000 - no offers now it has a new MOT
MOT/Tax : MOT expires 18/04/2018.
Mileage : 26,712
Colour : Black
THE GOOD
- New front caliper piston seals a couple of weeks ago with fluid change
- Fork and rear shock overhaul by Revs racing about 2k miles ago. Forks were powder coated satin black at the same time
- Coolant change a few weeks ago
- Official Givi top box and pannier rack. 42 litre Givi top box and two 36 litre Givi panniers
- Double bubble touring screen
- Renthal touring bars
- HEL braided hoses front and rear
- Rear hugger
- New brake pads all round, oil change, filter etc about 200 miles ago
- New front tyre about 80 miles old
- 3.5mm tread on the centre of the rear tyre
- Stage 1 Ivans jet kit
- Working exup valve
- Loads of nice little extra details, like titanium bolts, wheel rim stickers, custom footpegs, black levers, indicators. All the usual stuff people do when they love a bike
- Pearlescent black paint in great condition. I had a low speed accident about 6/7 years ago. No major damage, but required a respray. Repaired myself for about £400 and no MIAFTR registration
THE BAD
- Engine paint is flaking
- This is a 15 year old bike. It's been garaged, but it is starting to look tired. I was tempted to overhaul it over the winter, but I spent the time on the track bike instead. It would look amazing again if someone was to spend some time on it
- Neutral light doesn't work
- Sat Nav cradle not included
Bike Location : Sutton Coldfield, near Birmingham, West Midlands
Any Other Relevant Info : There's a whole box full of extras which will go with the bike. Screen, indicators, bolts, levers. I think there is even a set of heated grips in there. Lots of stuff.
Contact details: 07709496495. I get a lot of PPI and cold calls, so please don't get offended if I don't answer. Please leave a voicemail or drop me a text and I will give you a call back. Please don't PM me on here as I will probably not check for messages.

Lovely looking bike that you've got there and good value IMHO with the extras and luggage included. Might be worth stating whether the low speed spill resulted in a cat C / D listing?
Best of luck with the sale.

Ah! Thanks for the tip. No MIAFTR registration - just repaired it myself for about £400. Will update the listing

Tis indeed a good looking example, so is there still visible damage after the spill? was it before or after the Renthal bars?
and how much life is left in the rear tyre?
Regards
Alex

Hey Alex - thanks for your interest.
Vernier caliper says 3.5mm tread left in the centre of the rear tyre. Only visible damage is a scrape mark on the rear caliper.

Self repair should be no listing.

Oops sorry about last reply I responded before reading all of the thread :thumbup
Re: For Sale - 2002 Gen 1 Fazer 1000 Black with touring kit - tommyardin - 27-02-17
Very tidy looking bike. Same price as I paid for my 2003 FZS 600, same mileage to, but that was 4 years or so ago. Tons of luggage space for a commuter or tourer that's for sure.
The earlier Fazer 1K in good condition like that are becoming as rare as hens teeth.
Good luck with the sale, seems like you have interest already

Post updated to confirm MOT passed today and new brake seals installed in front calipers.
I had two weeks holiday and then I was sent the wrong piston seals, hence the delay in arranging the MOT. It all passed okay - no advisories.
Had a coolant change a few weeks ago.
I just want to add that nobody has wasted my time on this. It was my own fault it hasn't sold due to the delay in doing the work and getting the MOT
