Hi guys, just joined your site and thought I would say hello. I just bought myself a nice low milage fazer 1000 (2003) and thought this would be a good place for any hints or tips. AS my old FJ1200 is getting a bit heavy for me now due to a back injury I thought I would get something a bit lighter. It was a toss up between the fazer and a speedtriple 955, I thought the seating position on the fazer was more like the FJ so went for it.

Welcome.

And yes, this is a very good place for Fazer owners.
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.

Welcome to the forum.  :thumbup
I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.
