what did you do with your fazer today ?

[brooker81]

Dyno'd her 151 at the rear wheel so happy it's untrue. Turns out the "custom" map I was running was a load of shit. Lean at the bottom end which was 10% advanced which was causing the engine to rattle like a 2 stroke and far too rich at the top end. No wonder I have been blizing through fuel came home and I had done 120 miles and the file light still had not come on. The bike feels more alive and responsive than it ever has. I'm wondering why I haven't done it before now. Picture videos and dyno read outs on there way in the morning and a copy of the custom map to whoever wants it. I'm a very happy chappy tonight.

I thought the FZ1 would be making more power than that with all the mods tbh. Just goes to show that the FZS isn't too bad with nearly 140rwhp with Full Monty. I guess the difference would seem like plenty though, the FZ1 being a much lighter bike.

Today I did clean an accumulation of flies off the front and other paintwork, just hot water and a soft sponge. Couldn't believe how many it picked up on just one short spin yesterday evening. Part of the process of getting to know the new bike; found some minor marks here and there, but you'd really have to be looking closely to see them.

My full monty fzs1000 only put out around the 135bhp at the wheel on the same dyno. suppose it depends on dyno/air temp etc etc... My fz1 whips the shit out of my mates gen1 0-100 helps having the quickshift as it makes reaction time even less. Its also miles better round the twisties as well that being said i miss the low end grunt of the fzs and the massive fuel range. That being said the hp is around 10bhp more buth the torque value is only 2/3 more per lb.

Got a new Oxford cover for it .

Well, seeing as the old girl has recently turned 50k miles, for peace of mind I had the valve clearances checked for the first time....All within tolerance.
Had the AIS system removed while it was there for ease of maintenance in the future.
Going to continue with my regular, quality oil changes and have them checked again at 100k.

Did you write down and keep the values?

Not me personally unfazed as I got my bike mechanic old school friend to do the work but all the inlet valves were between 0.13 and 0.16, exhaust were all around 0.22. Apparently tolerances should be between 0.11 and 0.2, exhaust, 0.2 and 0.25, so all well within tolerance.

unfazed....this is dazza were talking about    :rollin


dazzza....did you use one of the kits or diy to block the holes created by removing the AIS ?

[red98]

Fitted new front brake pads to the mighty thou, after a blown fork seal contaminated the old ones  :\

after a big tidy up in the garage at the weekend this job only took 10 mins

Red, I resemble that remark    and no, didn't use a kit, AIS was taken off whole so can be refitted if need be and was blocked off using old bubblegum and bogeys found under my bed.  :lol

[red98]

Ah......I see.........bodged then  :rolleyes........what else did you find under your bed ?

[dazza]

Your butt plug and gimp mask  :b

[bristol banger]

Fitted a new belly pan thanks to devilsyam
