Aged newbie from Weston s Mare
« on: 06 April 2012, 08:31:02 pm »
Hi all, I've been visiting this site for the last year or so  but I never got my ass in gear until now to register. I've got a blue gen 1 which I've owned for about a year, R6 shock mod (thank you Luke), Ivanised (only fitted this morning by that very nice man from spain, thank you Mike) Metamachex swingarm and other bits. Cracking bike, especially with the mods. Have done a couple of trips on her to Scotland. Looking forward to BSB meetings etc. Also interested in any Fazer meets.

If i've done it right I should have attached a pic of my pride and joy. While I'm at it, one is also a proud owner of FZS 2001 600

look forward to any replies or sarcastic comments

Cheers mate, I'm new to this forum lark. I believe you reside in bonnie Scotland. Me and the great one would like to take on a B&B in around fort william. Pipe dream at the moment though. However,  my favourite stretch is the road from Tyndrum to Oban.
Wot you riding?

Hi Boris, welcome. I think the answer is "the ignition switch" - the question being "Which bit of this bike has not been modded" ;) Nice bike :thumbup

As far as I'm concerned with this method you have a better idea of what's going on behind. With the fairing mounted mirrors such as on me 600 it's difficult to see past me elbows.
