Fazer 1000 Suspension woes and more
#8
Cheers for the replies fellas.


Thanks for the settings Unfazed, I was around those already as I think that feels the best with how it is.



Yep I changed the fork Oil (5w) when I got it, it was fairly old but not the worst ive seen. I need it for a stint in euope in about a months time, by the replies I think I will go straight to fully splitting them with new bushings then.


How hard is the damper rod on to remove on these, ive diy'd a tool before on simpler forks but this looks a bit more complicated inside.


If lack of oil changes causes internal wear im wondering if my forks have already been damaged then. I noticed this too when I was changing the oil.

Roughly how much did it cost for a rebuild from MCT? Spings, new hardware etc.


The main problem is still a constant juddering and bucking through the bars, even on fairly smooth tarmac. Its not that the settings are a little soft/firm, it just feels like something is fundamentally wrong/broken on them.
