Just been Ivanised..!
« on: 10 July 2016, 07:08:24 pm »



Today I rode my recently purchased Fazer 1000 to Cornwall..... :)


the bike I rode back was a different bike...... :eek
it had the same paint job, the same registration plate, the same dead flies on the fairing from the ride down....?????????????


- BUT -


a deceptively pleasant (& very knowledgeable) chap who was visiting from Spain, had spent some time doing deviously dastardly devilish tricks  :evil with my carbs, intake stubs & airbox whilst I unsuspectingly sipped a cup or two of coffee.......
I actually think he may have quickly swapped my engine when I went for a pee...... :lol


What a difference half a day makes....thanks to Ivan & Mike Greatorex - a few quid very well spent...a real no brainer, it should be every owner's first mod!


It was great to meet SkidT whilst there as well - a blat into Cornwall, a brilliant bike mod, meeting two other Fazer riders & an awesome blat home again......RESULT!


Andy.

If you only did one mod to a stock bike, getting Mike to work his magic has got to be THE mod to go for.The increase in smiles per mile is incredible.
