General / Re: Don't be selling your Fazer

Yep I wouldn't buy a  :faz with the view that it'll appreciated in value any time soon. At the same time I agree, don't be selling your fazer.
I've been looking for a fazer replacement for a while now without actually buying anything. I've come to thje conclusion that I want another bike but also want to keep the fazer.
This causes some friction with me and the missus. I'll miss her when she eventually goes (the missus that is).
Rode my mates CBF 1000 (Gen 1) the other day, was a lot more like my Foxeye than my Gen. 1 thou. was. If you want a 'bigger newer Foxeye' with more torque and easier power without the monster performance of the thou. these are definitely worth a try. Still regret selling my thou as it was a beauty.

For Sale & Wanted / Re: Fazer 1000 replacement advice
« on: 26 August 2017, 09:59:49 am »
I had a Gen 1 thou (a beauty, wish I'd kept it and covered it up) and a Foxeye 6 and when I decided to go down to one bike I've kept the Foxeye, it's the easiest bike to ride I've had (had a few). Only thing I don't like about it is it's a bit revvy so I might put a one[size=78%] tooth bigger front sprocket on, they are amazing little bikes. [/size]

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: Gen 1 1000 fork seals
« on: 29 July 2017, 07:03:12 am »
If the seal mate did not work, Check for small stone chips on the fork leg, rust around the seals or cracks in the dust caps which would allow dust/grit into the seals.

Forks are  in really good nick, 2005-12k-never lived outside or used in the winter by the state of the bike. Just ordered the genuine stuff from Fowlers, so all I need now is a bit of time, motivation and a load of tea.

Thanks for the appreciation Gents, she really is that nice. This is the only place she's advertised. If I can't sell her I'll probably get her tested etc and make a few more quid. . Testicles are overrated !
