2004 Fazer 1000. now sold

[ghostbiker]

Well i have had my fazer for almost 9 years now, much of that time i have spent on and off this site (mostly off for last few years) but it is time to sell. will be very sad to see it go, still belive its the best all rounder ever made but cant afford to run 2 bikes and my truck so something has to go. as i want to focus on track days for a bit the ZX9r will be staying and the fazer needs a new home.


most on here will know the fazer so i will skip to the important bits lol.


Fazer 1000 2004 in silver with black engine (best colour combo )
will post pics later when i get a chance but no doubt there are old ones knocking around here till then if your interested or just search Gumtree for it as its listed there in TA81QJ area
bike is mechanicly perfect, Exup serviced at least once a year and often 2-3 times for luck lol. new chain and sprockets last year and recent tyres to. battery is the Gel type (holds charge trough winter better).


Only real marks are on nose cone a scuff (cosmetic write off with scuff and broken mudguard) and a slight tear in seat where the join is at the front.
everything else is just age related , but it is in pretty good nic 


mods.... the list is long and i am sure i will forget some. most have been recommended here anyway lol


Full monty fitted by Mike with Air box mod
Blue Flame exhaust (twin port oval)
4 deg ignition advancer (plus original if wanted)
front forks had a full Ktec workover on internals
rear shock is currently full spec Nitron track but will be coming with the OE shock fitted not the Nitron as i will be selling that speratlely. the OE shock is very low miles as i put the Nitron on at the start of my ownership and has been serviced by nitron 3 times since then (i normally fully service it every 3 years)
new exup cables last year
fuzzy mirror mod
AIS removed
rear hugger fitted
yamaha belly pan and crash bungs

i'm sure i have some spare knocking around to like oil filter and a few parts




now i'm sure i have forgotten some stuff but that covers the bulk of it i think

[ghostbiker]

Now on eBay

[ghostbiker]

Sadly my baby is now sold. New owner given a healthy shove in the foc-u direction though. I have no doubt at some point I will end up getting another 1...... Maybe a gen 21 when it comes out :p

[ghostbiker]

Buyer pulled out. Back up on eBay this Sunday.

[ogri48]

Why did he pull out mate? Had that happen when I sold my hayabusa, people are a pain :-(

Got a question, just looking through your history you mention a bike being in an accident but not mentioned here, is that a diff bike or this one? It said its a Cat C

[ghostbiker]

Bike was a cosmetic write off about 4 years ago. Front mudguard was damaged and a scuff mark on left fairing and mirror.
Mudguard at the time was a carbon fiber one so the original was placed back on and the scuff mark covered with touch up pen.

For some reason this is showing on hpi as C and I'm trying to find original emails from insurance as they said cosmetic so should be D. Not that it make any actual difference in the use of the bike. But C seems to put people off and D less so. So would be nice if I got them to correct the mistake on hpi (day chance though after 4 years)

There is mention of it here but wasn't in the eBay ad. Hence buyer then trying to low ball price.
Bike is already adjusted in price for the accident and he felt his bid was to much. His choice and his loss.

Bike is 2250 ono
Any questions feel free to ask

[cable tie]

Regardless cat C or D it's too expensive £1300-£1500 Is probably more intune to its value .

[ghostbiker]

I'm that we clearly disagree. 2600 - 2700 would be about right on a 2004 with these mods. So 600 off that as cat c I fell is about right. Hence 2250 aiming for 2k.

I have to agree with cable tie   The bike has a lot of corrosion on nuts and bolts, swingarm, engine paint flaking and it's also a cat c. I wish you well with the sale, but maybe lower price a bit for a quick sale.

And you are welcome to your opinion, just as I am welcome to ignore it.
