Title: Hello, Essex/London FZS owner
Post by: dcurzon on 28 October 2013, 12:08:58 pm

Hi, ok, not my first post, but hello anyways!
Been a long time biker, seen some things, done... stuff...  but took a 5 year break from the bikes.  But,  fed up of £250-300 / month train commuting, I picked up a '99 Fazer, 1 owner from new, 44k on the clock. Not in bad shape actually, runs well, but needs the 'touch'....   First few weeks were a bit wobbly but now nearly a couple of months in and getting back to speed.
Speed... ah yes!  Well, i'll never be as quick as i was!  Isn't that the old saying?
Anyway, i digress...  50 mile round trip daily Essex > London > Essex and enjoying it!
These fazer lights are pretty shit though eh?  Dual beam mod done, Osram's installed, and yes, improved! But not great.  Think i may go HID.  Or maybe not... i dunno.  Part of the bigger picture here is to keep the costs right down to a minimum, else it'll be just like catching the train again!  Either way, i need to see :D
