So, set to re-fitting the old ones, one of which I suspect was not sealing properly, ,leading to hesitancy at low throttle. Thoroughly cleaned them, and straightened out as best I could the old clamp bands, all refitted now, and balanced up. Ill give it a blast out tomorrow. In hindsight, I think I may have overtightened the bands and distorted them last time I had them off, which may have allowed the rubbers to slip on the bodies neck inlet. If all is good, then its oil change, brake bleed, fairings on and then check to see if my leathers have shrunk over winter

Yesterday, actually. I took the ' winter ' Fazer to Barrie Walters of Premier Motorcycle Care, Whitchurch, Shropshire, for a treatment of ACF 50. Takes around two hours. Wash , shampoo , rinse , dry , apply ACF 50 , final wipe down. Protected as much as possible for the next 12 months. Taking my other Fazers there in the next few months. Barrie is a top man.
