Hey from Durham
« on: 13 May 2013, 01:18:06 pm »
Hi all, just dropping by to introduce myself - new to the fold, passed mod2 on Friday and bought a Fazer about 3 seconds afterwards.


See you around.

Quality man


Lots o folk on here with the fazer being their first bike, remember theres no such thing as a silly question but try searching before you ask as its probably already been covered.


I had to wait about 3 months after my test before i set eyes on my fazer, had a similar grin though!!!! :D
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

Hey,
 
Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the test!
 
I remember that grin very well! It never really goes, especially when the fazer is so much fun  8)
 
Enjoy and take care,
 
Chris

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Well done on the test hightower, and welcome to foccerism.

Good choice of bike, in stealth speed black (the other colours are considerably slower btw ;). )

Enjoy it, and stay safe bud.

Well, it's my only vehicle now as car failed last MOT, so I ain't been off it since Friday!


And yeah, I thought the black model felt considerably quicker than other colours...

Welcome to the site O tall one  :)


Good on you for getting the fast, chick pulling colour. Take it easy out there, you have a long road in front of you. Think with that grin you should be called Garfield  :D

Hi from another NEW Fazer owner. Personally, I've found the grinning occurs even when off the bike many times, randomly. The illness cannot be diagnosed nor treated.
where does the muffler go?

I'm having trouble focusing at work, and hope the symptoms go away before I'm given the heave ho
