2002 YZF Fazer 600 timing chain replacement. Made the most common mistake of trusting the seller. Was told the timing chain adjuster needs replacing and it was an easy job. Bol..cks!! Thanks adjuster is bang in the middle of the cylinders and seldom needs attention. Dealer said at least 6 hours labour - bloody bike didn’t cost half of that! So I did it myself. Enjoy!

about to do my valves and chain too, been looking for similar videos. did you use an endless chain with a rivet link? thanks

@vinnieharkin7250 Год назад

I did rivet link it yes. A little fiddley but manageable. You’ll need the tool to break the old chain anyway - not difficult. Make sure you attach something to both sides prevent it falling inside the engine, then attach the new chain and draw it through. You’ll be fine ✌️

@adamflynn7322 Год назад

@@vinnieharkin7250 thanks for the reply, just one more question. how did you round off the rivet once you put the chain back together?

@vinnieharkin7250 Год назад

@@adamflynn7322 Normally when buying a chain breaker it comes with the riveting side too? You just place it over the rivet pin and twist. Check it out on RU-vid

@@vinnieharkin7250 oh okay I thought it would be more complicated, glad to hear its just that easy. appreciate all the help, cheers

Great vid! I'm halfway through doing mine. Just getting the carbs off was a pig to do. I just bought an FZS600 which needs a new chain after only 26k miles. The tensioner is fully extended so I'm hoping I can fix mine easily enough.

@vinnieharkin7250 2 года назад

If I can do it… ha! Yeah thanks for saying and just take your time and you’ll get it done. Good luck 👍

@@vinnieharkin7250 cheers fella. Just a quick question... Was it just one of the cheaper chains on ebay or the £80 ones? I've paid £18 for one which I hope will do the job.

@vinnieharkin7250 2 года назад

@@richardday3862 It was the £80 one. TBH I don’t remember seeing the cheaper one? I’m surprised because that’s normally my style 😉😁

@farazmunir6553 Год назад

do the chains usualy go at ruffley 26k. i brought a fz6 aswel and its done 60k and can hear the chain rattle when i give it some throttle.

@richardday3862 Год назад

@@farazmunir6553 I think mine had had a hard life before I owned it. It runs like a dream now and is much better cared for!

Im about to do my cam chain, what did you have to take off in order to get to the cam cover to make an easy access point to get the chain off to put new one through, did you have to take the exhaust cam guide out as you cant get the intake one out without unbolting it

@vinnieharkin7250 Год назад

Hi Shaggy. I don’t remember having to unbolt any cam guides? If we’re talking about the same thing then they move easily when chain is slackened. If you’re talking about the cam shafts then yes, you have to unbolt and remove both to access the chain. Good luck 👍🍀

@chrisg4rr377 2 года назад

Great video. Fyi you would measure the gap between the cams and the shims with it all fitted in place, then remove the cams to measure then shims and spec up/down

@vinnieharkin7250 2 года назад

Thanks for the info and advice. It was an adventure! Ha ha

@jamesharrison4626 3 года назад

Well done! I've got to do mine, which I'm worried about. Have you got any links to the parts you used please? Also, any tips? Thanks in advanced, Jay

@vinnieharkin7250 2 года назад

Sorry for the late reply, I’m just seeing this! I didn’t use anything special. A cam chain from eBay and a little grit ha ha. I’m sure you’ve done it by now and moved to bigger and brighter things. Thanks
