Workshop time...
« on: 11 December 2014, 08:24:47 am »
So, passed my theory test yesterday, shortly booking my DAS. While I'm waiting the Fazer is currently in my Works Motorcycle workshop. Slow puncture repaired, carbs balanced, headlight mod & the students cleaned it  :D

Good stuff on the theory! Be careful on that red Fazer, they are renown to be the fastest!


And that turbo conversion would look ace on my R1

As much as I like the red, I still preferred the later, darker shade  :evil

Looking good though, keep us up to date! ^^

Yeah those were nice as well in the tri-colour scheme. Mine was just the solid red :)

That's you that is ;).Good article.I had too giggle tho at the bit about the 'recall of early bikes to replace the 9mm drive output shaft with a stronger 12mm job'! :lol.No wonder the sprockets fell off!.
