i also heard good things abt the tiger fr the tiger salesman.

but have not found any materials to support his findings.

 

Just trying to pull a fast one on u. U shld reconsider that bike then. Kekekeke!

 

BTW. Exotic bikes comes at exotic prices. Pay more for servicing and spares as well. Oh and availability of spares are worrying too. Just my $0.02

[Speedpass]

nobody sales guy will sell a tiger and tell u to buy a fazer right?

but its not too fair to compare, the price diff. is steep.

 

 

for me, i wun bother abt what the salesman's has to say cos he can't tok bad abt his prdts, can he?

 

gd comments come fr those kwai lous.. unique exhaust note fr a triple, long travel suspensions translate into comfy ride blah blah..

 

oh $10K is a lot of dough.. bt u wun poke ur key into some1 else's bike wor.. fazer is getting fairly common sight nowadays

Each to its own....

 

I guess the choice boils right down to the user... i say go for the Tiger if you really like it without stretching your long term debt. If your purchasing power allows you to...why not?

 

Fazer is definately bang for the bucks as it is affordable without sacrificing too much in other aspects i.e. touring, power, looks... there is a reason why its a common sight.

 

If you can afford it... dun worry about parts, up keeping of the bike, petrol... its the "feel"...

Am I the only only to suffer the FZ1 "clutch slow to Disengage" problem? Sibei irritated...cannot ride the bike as I normally do due to the slow response of the clutch. Very upset with Yamaha, after owning 3 Yamahas, the 4th one is really a piece of crap.

 

 

Big yammies got 2 knowns problems.

 

1. TPS problem resulting in jerky response at low rpms. Or engine will simply die off when clutched in, etc etc...

 

2. Sticky clutch. Caused by excessive factory lube or grease they used on the clutch plates.

 

 

TPS prob can be DIY'ed, but needs effort. Go see the Racewerks thread on how. I did this 3 yrs back on my R1. Solved the prob.

 

For the sticky clutch, I've heard that the clutch has to be removed and the excess grease cleaned off.

Hi to all Fazer 1000 owner:smile:

Anyone interested in the FCE set by Ivan's Performance?

Had done a checked, no one in local selling this product that’s why needed to purchase from oversea.

Did a check on the price also, product + shipment cost around S$361.06 per set if you are to order only 1 set from them,

But if we can order 5 sets and above, they able to reduce the price to S$290.00 per set.

That's a price difference of S$71.06.

 

For more info on the products can refer to the link below

http://www.ivansperformanceproducts.com/2006fz1.htm

 

For online instructions can refer to the link below

http://fazerowners.yuku.com/topic/24...s-of-pics.html

 

Interested parties can PM me.

I will be getting 1 set, so need another 4 buyers to enjoy the lesser price.

**I manage to reduce the price after further Neg with them as compare the thread i posted earlier**

 

**Update**

Got 1 buyer interested.

so need another 3 buyers.

 

P.S" Need to collect $200 deposit from you first,

balance of the amount will collect once i deliver the set to you.

Thanks DeusExMachina...Its good to know that I'm not the only one with the problems. Is it possible to DIY the clutch? Any special tools required for the job? I'm quite a handyman and like to do it myself...would hate to leave it at HL for a week.

[yammy]

Really suai to have bought a lemon..ride the 1st week to discover the fork leaking...brought it to HL to have it fixed only to hear that I needed to leave it there for a week, wahlau, in the end fixed it myself. Now the clutch sticking. what happened to Yamaha quality.

Hey Katana, have i met you before?

[CMYRS]

Well, thats true. Everything comes at a cost, including being exclusive.

 

But to me, that is just secondary.

The feel of the ride, reliability and enjoyment is of greater importance.

 

Just trying to pull a fast one on u. U shld reconsider that bike then. Kekekeke!

 

BTW. Exotic bikes comes at exotic prices. Pay more for servicing and spares as well. Oh and availability of spares are worrying too. Just my $0.02

Bro , hows the problem wif ur error code ? Have u bought a new batt ? Anyway , guys from my technical side advised me to take out the batt to charge it up once every few mths to maintain the life span of the batt . My 1st OEM batt is now up & running like new , n thanx to moka for lending me his charger .

[CMYRS]

If its common usually it means affordable and parts and servicing is not an issue right? Dats a impt factor.

 

I understand a good mechanic is more impt than my family doctor.

I bet you know which one I visit more frequently.

 

 

for me, i wun bother abt what the salesman's has to say cos he can't tok bad abt his prdts, can he?

 

gd comments come fr those kwai lous.. unique exhaust note fr a triple, long travel suspensions translate into comfy ride blah blah..

 

oh $10K is a lot of dough.. bt u wun poke ur key into some1 else's bike wor.. fazer is getting fairly common sight nowadays

problem solved by changing to new OEM batt n rectifier....

wallet also thinner now

[CMYRS]

It will be great if they allow test rides, it will be alot easier to made a choice.

And not just rely on reviews, spec sheets and outlook.

 

For the firstime, I saw a black tiger at Haji lane last night and she looks better than in photos.

 

Very tempting.....

 

You are right....its all about the feel.

 

 

Each to its own....

 

I guess the choice boils right down to the user... i say go for the Tiger if you really like it without stretching your long term debt. If your purchasing power allows you to...why not?

 

Fazer is definately bang for the bucks as it is affordable without sacrificing too much in other aspects i.e. touring, power, looks... there is a reason why its a common sight.

 

If you can afford it... dun worry about parts, up keeping of the bike, petrol... its the "feel"...
