Hello all
« on: 27 May 2016, 04:01:13 pm »
Hello all,

New guy here, just wanted to say hi and looking forward to drinking in the help and Knowledge from others and hopefully being able to share any of my, be it minimal knowledge.

I recently purchased a 1999 FZS600 Fazer from my friend and it's the best bike I've ever bought or rode, so much better than my last bike which was a 1991 FZS600 Genesis.

Thanks, it's a cracking bike and I'm just having so much fun on it. I used to be more into sports bikes hence the FZR and I always wanted an R1 but this bike has just made me do a complete U-turn on the type of bike to ride.

I am having some slight electrical issues with it at the moment but I'm slowly going through possible causes.

All the answers is just what I need  :)  Panel beating and paint spraying are my thing but when it comes to mechanics or electrics I'm a complete novice.


Just got back from a trip to Cornwall, we were ment to be there all week but due to illness from the wife and daughter we came back early, but I don't mind as it means I've got the rest of the week off to work on the bike  :lol


I've always wanted to try a blast out on a S1000RR but could never bring myself to book a test ride, as the wife would kill me because I would just have to buy it  :evil

Yes I can imagine it would most definitely be a license loosing machine. I think that's one of the reasons why I've never made the jump to owning a 1000cc or above, I have ridden a few but never owned. I know a 600 can also be licence looser but if I had a 1000 or above then I would just want to use all it has 👹
