  1. Hi All, I topped up the oil last night and fired it up and all is working great, the gurgling i can only assume was the engine trying to pump the oil round the engine and through the oil filter, as once i had turned it over a few times the gurgling stopped, and the bike came to life. Thanks for all your advice. Matt
  2. This is getting far to technical for me, i haven't got a clue what i am doing when it comes to bike engines. Give me a computer any day
  3. Thanks How do i turn the motor over by hand? Cheers Matt
  4. Thanks igingeee, The bike has been sat for about a week but in the garage, i do generally check the oil level but have neglected it the last few weeks. Getting oil today and will try it tonight. Needs a service too... Cheers Matt
  5. Hi All, I have an issue with my Z750r in that it wont start , i started it this morning and noticed it had a FI warning light flashing so stopped it, it then started flashing the oil pressure light and turned over once then would not start. After checking the oil i noticed it was below the lowest level and there was a gurgling noise when i turned the ignition on but not trying to start it. Do these bike have a failsafe to not let the engine start if the engine oil is too low? Any help would be greatly appreciated Cheers
  6. Hi Does any know what is inc in this service given that the bike is only 1 year old Thanks in advance
  7. i wasnt thinking of it being make and model was just lookijng for one that fitted nicely and didnt block my whole view of the dials etc as there aint much space on the bars in my opinion
  8. Can anyone recommend a satnav for this bike if anyone has this bike and has a satnav that would be even better
  9. Hi All, Does anyone know if the engine makes a certain noise when the valve clearances are buggered? cheers

    Thinks it's a Ducati then...... Deffo a socket set.....nothing worse than rounding off nuts on the bike with an open ended spanner. And if you are going to be doing much maintenance also invest in a Torque wrench......cheaper than a new sump pan because you overtightened the sump drain plug......not that I ever did that of course.... Its a Fazer 600

    Thanks for the advise Haynes manual is in the post was just trying to a get a head start and get some tool info first. Never got any tools with my bike as it wqas 2nd hand when i got it. think i have paid the mechanics enough everytime i go they find something else that needs sorting (feeling a bit fleeced sometimes) and i aint got the best of paid jobs I do have a christian bikers bible which was thrust upon me once (WTF)
