Fazer8 / FZ8 / Replacement Exhaust
« on: 09 March 2014, 09:22:41 pm »
Evening all,

What a fantastic day for riding it's been today :D

But enough of that, has any one got any suggestions for a replacement exhaust for my 2012 Fazer 8 ABS?

Not only is the original starting to rust around the bracket weld which is a bit annoying as it was only registered June 2013, but her majesty has decreed we need some thing that sounds a little bit tastier.

Can't really afford to be spending big bucks so was hoping some one out there had tried some of the less 'trendy/desirable' exhausts out there with good results.

cheers - David

Fazer8 / FZ8 / Fazer8 screen replacement
« on: 28 October 2013, 08:53:26 am »
Starting a new thread here as previous one had no replies for past three months.
 
Looking at replacing the screen on my fazer 8 to try and help make the winter months a little bit more bearable especially on the motorway stretches.
 
I'm only a short arse (5' 9") and have done a bit of experimenting with my current (original) screen from just moving my hand over the top of the screen which makes quite a bit of difference to head buffeting to if I get onto the tank, not easy with my midriff it's blissfully quiet but I can't see out of my mirrors!!!!
 
Touring screen, double bubble, flip up, .......... which is the way to go and what's the difference, does the official touring screen have a lip at the top to push that last bit of wind over the head (is this the flip up like skidmarx offers - which by the way is virtually half the price of the original!!!)
 
Looking forward to some more feed back

Fazer8 / FZ8 / Top box fitted
« on: 29 September 2013, 09:27:49 pm »
 
more of a need than a desire but fitted givi top box this weekend. Have to say don't think it looks as bad a I thought it would and when the box is off the rack doesn't stick out too much.

General / polishing plastics
« on: 26 September 2013, 10:34:26 pm »
now here's a hypothetical question......
 
if one was to wash their bike and were to use a cloth not quite as soft as they thought it was, what would be the best way of restoring any  'minor multiple abrasions' to any previously more shiny pieces of plastic, hypothetically speaking .........

Hoping to be using my Fazer8 as much as possible over the winter months, any one got tips or nuggets of wisdom/experience on what to use and how to keep it in as good nick as possible?
