Having just bought my 3rd FZS600 gen 1, a lovely black 2001, one owner low mileage bike, it was time to start adding the bling for summer, so today I fitted a Simmi end can and stainless rad cover.

(Had I known I was always going to return to a Fazer again I would have kept the two rad covers bought previously and scorpion end can, would have saved me 100's!)

Bought some new coolant and got it added to the bike after a bit of a flush out. Then fixed the broken dash board light and went fault finding with my heated grips... turns out the grip itself is busted

He was so excited he sent me a text this morning saying he was about to do it then two pictures this afternoon of his serviced Exup valve

I got mine out the garage, parked it in the sun on the patio and lightly lubricated my moving parts.

Took it for 125 mile blast round Wiltshire with a few old codger friends, got home and gave it a goold old clean.
Smashing day, bike rode really nicely and weather was great.

Spent £29 getting a new MOT...with no advisories!!!!

Skippernick · « **Reply #244 on:** 07 April 2013, 07:24:25 pm »

Gave it a coolant flush and new coolant, cleaned the air filter.
Ready for BSB at Thruxton next weekend.

Kosmic Kartman · « **Reply #245 on:** 07 April 2013, 07:41:39 pm »

Rode to Blackheath, then the Ace Cafe, then out to Henley, Berkshire, thrashed it through Wiltshire

Gave it a rest while I ate then blasted it home back to SE London. Some other foccers came along for the ride as well.

kitcrazy · « **Reply #246 on:** 07 April 2013, 10:11:59 pm »

Tried to keep up with aload of foccers but failed.but had fun trying

ChristoT · « **Reply #247 on:** 07 April 2013, 10:44:10 pm »

Dropped it...

I was on the way to a mates, who was letting me have a spin on his tuned and dynojetted Thundercat - a 98, but in mint condition (looks new). In my hurry to try the bike, I parked the Fazer on the sidestand, facing downhill in neutral. I walked away, two minutes later, a loud crunch. Ran back, and found I'd buggered the fairing (again) and dammaged my indicator stalk.

Am seriously pissed off with myself.
