WANTED: 2001 FZS600 fork stanchion - Farmboy81 - 17-04-18

Hi Guys,


Just scraped through my Fazer's first MOT with a warning that my left fork is slightly bent (enough to pull under braking, but not enough to affect riding, hence scraping through).


Does anyone have a single (straight, naturally) stanchion that will fit a 2001 FZS 600?


Cheers.

Got the bottom sliders and all the internals but not the stanchion. Might get lucky and find a full leg on eBay for a£100 otherwise I think the chrome stanchion are about that much each.


Some, including myself might wonder why I commented as I'm no help....

Yep, everything but what I need!


Thanks for taking the time to reply though.

Have you considered getting it straightened? there are several companies who do it if you google fork straightening

Cheers Vinny, I did look into it but as the fazer's my only form of transport I can't have it off the road for more than a day.


Pricewise, looks about the same to get a new stanchion anyway, plus wouldn't a straightened one be weaker?
