    How to clean matte colours/ graphic helmet?

    I have a matte AGV Corsa R and when I went to the AGV importer to buy a tinted visor the salesman suggested some potion for cleaning the helmet, I didn't buy it but I just wipe mine regularly with a damp cloth.

    Question Has anyone solved the buffeting / wind noise problem (2004-2006)

    I have an X-Lite 802 and an AGV Corsa R and I don't notice much difference in buffeting although the wind noise in the AGV is terrible even with earplugs. My old Shoei was miles better than both of them.

    My 2004 which I sold recently still has the original seals :eek: but I'm sure'm not the only one.

    Is this a record for the revival of the oldest thread? :oops: Good video though, can't say the same for the paint job on the bike!

    Question Has anyone solved the buffeting / wind noise problem (2004-2006)

    I had a 2004 with the Puig double bubble screen and it was fine, I am 6' and I could ride at indicated 240km/h plus with no issues. I can't say the same for my Tracer, the stock screen is a waste of time.

    Sold my baby blue...

    The Fazer and the Tracer are completely different and not only because of the engine capacity. The Tracer triple engine has a lot of grunt low down and with the pipe I have on mine it sounds like a Honda CBX when you wind it up. The seating position and the stock bars are perfect for me, I can't...

    Hope everyone is well and safe

    This is a pretty rotten year for us even without Corona, I was retrenched at the end of 2019 and still not working, my wife is in the airline industry and her company was on borrowed time even before the current crisis. She has been on "unpaid leave" since May 1st and is only being paid for time...

    Need Help 2004 FZ6S - replacement Ignition lock

    I have been having similar problems with mine, using the same key for 16 years. This morning when I took the spare and the red key out of the safe I tried the unused spare key and it is silky smooth :)

    Sold my baby blue...

    After 16 years and a couple of months, 57,000-odd kilometres and countless happy memories my 2004 Fazer, one owner since new, is going to a new home. Since I bought my Tracer almost 3 years ago I haven't ridden the Fazer more than a couple of times, my wife was going to ride it but when she...

    Drag bar swap

    agreed, when I took the hand guards off my Tracer and fitted Rizoma grips and MT-09 bar end weights everything moved outwards slightly, I filed the pins off and put everything back, no problems since.

    Where is the signal for the speed sensor coming from?

    I thought I could get away with not buying one if I could borrow one from a friend. Scottish blood! :oops:

    Where is the signal for the speed sensor coming from?

    Thanks but it isn't clear if it needs to stay on the bike, what I am asking is if it is possible to borrow one to calibrate then disconnect it.

    Where is the signal for the speed sensor coming from?

    I had a look at that site but what's not clear to me is if the Speedohealer is attached for calibration then removed, or becomes a permanent fitment on the bike.

    Clutch cable adjustment

    I'm pretty sure I was able to adjust mine without removing the airbox. If I recall I removed the cable from the lever and pulled the cable down away from the airbox, adjusted the mid cable unit then refitted it and adjusted at the lever.

    Where is the signal for the speed sensor coming from?

    It seems a bit illogical to take the speed from anywhere except one of the wheels, what happens if you do some radical regearing with the chain and sprockets? The speed sensor inside the engine isn't going to know that.

    Just another "can I get a plug put in this location" post

    Put a mushroom plug from the inside and you should be fine, I have used them several times without incident.
