Good morning,


Finally managed to log in after seeing the sticky!


Well two weeks ago I had me 2012 800 dropped off as my new commuting bike. I travel about 100 miles a day round trip to central London and since the end of lockdown the traffic has gone mental so it was time to travel by bike again! I part exed my Husaberg 650 to a private trader and he kindly delivered my new bike for me.


After two weeks, the bike is lovely to ride and exactly right for what I wanted. Costs a tenner a day to run and it’s pretty comfortable. Unfortunately on the commute last night it died as I was parking up. Pretty sure it’s the stator. So it’s getting picked up from my house tonight and will have it’s big service slightly early while it’s there.


Have been riding for a while and had some different bikes over the years. Yamaha diversion, Suzuki GSR 750 and Gsxr 600, Husaberg 650 and currently still own my Harley sportster nightster 1200. Hopefully the Fazer will be back on the road by the end of the week and won’t cost an absolute fortune to get there!!
