Anyone have changed the bushings in their front forks?
I feel a small play in the forks (between inner and outer tube) Checking the same way you would when you check for play in the steering head bearings.
Mileage is 61500 km.
The service manual shows nothing and I find it hard to find the...
Okay guys I have a question for you FZ experts. I picked up a wrecked 2012 FZ1 with 4k miles on it super cheap and replaced the front forks and triples (bent).
The replacement forks (from eBay, unkown history) almost feel like there is a little wiggle or play inside of them. It's hard to...
Picked up a '10 a week ago :)

Hello, I'm looking to buy a damaged,or not, any color front fairing. No lights, just the fairing. If its about to break in half, I still want to look at it.
Thank you
My brother crashed my bike and bent the forks up. I am looking to buy gen 1 front forks that aren't bent. They don't have to be in perfect condition. With or without the crowns mine are still good. thanks!

Somehow, I lost the right front compression damping screw (the flat head on the back of the front fork). I've looked online but can't find any diagrams that even list it, let alone someone who sells it. Will I be able to get this from the Yamaha dealership? Does anyone have any other sources for...
So i've been searching around and haven't found any concrete answers...
When I grab the front brake, I hear a clunk come from the front front end. It only happens on initial pull. I read it could be due to the caliper pin or possible the floating joints on the rotor... I wanted to know if...
I am upgrade my FZ8 to a Fazer euro front end so I will no longer need this setup.
This is for 100% needed plug and play.
This will include the gauge mounts, all the plastics and trims. the headlight, the bulbs / wiring harness for the retrofit, and a PUIG smoked windscreen. The neon yellow...

As the title says, I found a perfect R1 tank/cover for sale super cheap here in town. Does anyone know if it will fit on an FZ1? I know there are just a few frame/motor differences between the two and the tanks look very similar other than the plastic front tank cover part. My bike is a few...

So I followed directions as best I was able in the wheel removal thread, proceeded with new front tire install, had a little trouble with the reinstall, had to slip the calibers over the rotors before inserting axle, they would not clear the mounts otherwise, then when I bolted things back in...

In a failed attempt to remove my front wheel today, I was stopped because I didn't realize the hydraulic line bolt had a backing nut on it. I could not slip the wheel past the calipers. As I put it back together so that I could come and whine about it here, I noticed that the 6mm bolt has a...
