spider....if the clutch was to need replacing at a later date it is an easy job..its on the side of the engine behind cover with yam logo on....a much easier job than shims....take a look at haynes manual and all will become clear 

[spider]

i wanted that job done on my fzs600. dealer sed we have to split the engine. its a long messy job  and while its being done. the clutch is right in front of you so we will do that as well. as the job was going to cost approx £550 plus vat i thought. sod that its taking the piss. so i have left till i get more money. was he fobbing me off. all other work was done to a good standard.

well??...if i was you spider i would name and shame the turd???......he,s filling you with crap!!!!...you do not split the engine!!!!! and has for being a long messy job??.....usualy a hour tops to change a clutch?...and thats with stopping for a cuppa and a wa..k?...if you wish?? :rolleyes £550+vat......think he,s realy taking the piss matey????????????........its so simple to change the clutch on a fazer?....easy to follow instructions found in haynes manual!!...even for the non mechanical minded,...you will find step by step instuctions??......to have the valves chkd i would have thought around the £200 mark would have been more realistic?....and mabe....around the 50 mark for the clutch? ok?..plus the vat?....but 550plus vat?...fkn disgustin!!

i rung him and he said that includes doing the shims as well. does that sound about right. i bought a triumph explorer because of the money  i cud see going out the window.  the decider was i will also need a new rear shock cos i have done 24,000 miles and although i am only 12stone it is worn out. mct dun the front and sed the rear is fine. but i wud notice improvement if i bought a new one.  bit conflicting really. but i want to keep fazer for life. 10years so far. love it.  all other bikes about 8 of them just come and go. i have used dealer for approx 6years

cant see any shimmin needing doing at that mileage?....but you cant realy prove if they done them or not?...if it was tappety when you took it in and then quiet when picking it up?..you can say that they have actualy done what they charging for?.....still seams over the top to me though???? :\ ......as for your shock??....if you,v been told its ok ?..and not leaking etc?...then i would leave it?...you being only 12stone dont think it would bother you to much with handling probs?..unless the spring was fkd?...and again at that mileage cant see it think they just trying to milk you for a new shock meself????? :rolleyes .

Fazer Clutch Replacement

thanks for video.    even i could do that. i take it the oil has to be drained. so i will do it wen i do that as well. or when needed. as for the valve shims i think i will leave them alone. if they go west i will change them then. or buy a new engine. whatever is cheapest
