Fazer 600 2001 fuel tap?

[Beehive Bedlam]

Two miles from home my bike coghed and begun to splutter I knew it was low on fuel I just wanted to see the fuel light come on to see if it was any more accurate than the fuel gauge which it isn't because it failed to come on.

Now I'm home the nearest petrol station is a four mile walk there and back unless there is a fuel tap hidden somewhere?

Nope, not fuel tap for reserve just a light.

Looks to be under the tank, which leads me to believe there is no reserve setting, because that's what fuel gauges are for.

I walked up and filled the can with five liters walked back down didn't have a clean funnel and no hose so only about four liters went into the tank rest all over it and then went for a cruise to fill up.

My chain needs tweeking tighter slightly I don't have the correct sized socket I think it is a 24mm can anyone confirm? 24mm ring spanner from halfords is around £10 I do not want to buy a 1/2 socket set to use only the 24mm socket.

Also I need a Haynes anyone in Yorkshire who happens to have the FZS 96 - 03 manual I will meet you tomorrow after one and buy it £10.

[andyscooter]

Oh ffs

Haynes manual is 18 quid new

Measure but with a tape to work out size

And ffs buy a decent socket set to use

You say you are doing cp so must be earning enough

I buy tools cos I can even if I don'tneed them

II'm a man I'm aloud its better then buying fags to me

I am sure Allah was on the toilet when you were on the production line.

No QC.

What the fuck is wrong with you. Why do you do this to yourself.

Don't stop though. I need the lulz.

If the chain is a bit sloppy, weld it. To 4 thou, mind.

[Amber Phoenix]

27mm socket is what you need. Maybe a 24mm (I think) on t'other side to brace it. Mine has a habit of just spinning rear axle. Then the chain adjustment bolts are 12mm (if I recall correctly).

Should be about 3-4cm slack on chain. Amount it slightly different between old Square eye and Fox eye Fazers.

Definitely no reserve. I have had about 20 mile further after fuel light coming on on mine. But I have a 2003 Foxeye with a bigger tank...

I went to Halfords £10.99 for a 27mm spanner opposed to a silverline one from someone on ebay half the price.

When I asked about the Haynes I just got a gone out look so I will also be ordering from the internet along with a blank diary to keep a track of oil changes.

[andyscooter]

Does the halfords you were in sell motorbike oils etc

Both my local ones do and have the Haynes but smaller ones don't
