split crank case

Think, clockwise to tighten , anti-clockwise slacken,unless lefthand thread and I would be suprised if there are any on a Fazer???. Not a mechanic on the planet has made a similar mistake at sometime or other. Hope you get it sorted.

righty tighty.....lefty loosley    :thumbup .........the down pipes only being on for 12 mths is going to help,to make things a little easier soak the studs with gt85 or similar every day for a few days before hand,reduce the risk of anything going wrong,when undoing the bolts/nuts, a little at a time , dont force things, ease them off loosening ,tighten a bit at a time.......loads of threads on downpipe removal on here well worth taking a few minutes reading through before you start  .....best tip of all.......take your time and plenty of tea  :thumbup    ....good luck and keep us posted

I take it there isn't a removable oil pressure relief valve mounted in the sump pan? My brother replaced the pan on his Z650 many moons ago, forgot to take the valve from the old pan and fit it to the new one, then ran the engine  :eek
The damage this does, does not bear thinking about  :lol

Nick, nothing but the oil level switch, most secondhand come with them attached.

King1 forgot to tell you  :rolleyes the oil level switch connector is behind the sprocket cover. It only has one wire as it is earthed off the engine.

I would suggest the use of a torque wrench when reassembling the bits, it could save you learning the right touch with out further damage. We are all learning.

I would suggest getting someone else to do it!  :rolleyes
