Another newbie!! New to riding & Fazers :)
« on: 17 July 2012, 12:02:37 pm »
Just passed my Mod 1 & 2 tests last week, after being recommended by the trainer i've bought a 2000 'W' plate Fazer FZS600!!
WOW that things fast - only had a GS500 to train on and a Yamaha YBR125 for 2 months to gain confidence!!


Added a 12v socket to it and planning on engine crash protection bars & bungs, heated grips, tank bag and a few other bits & bobs.


Loving the bike and glad i found a owners club forum!! :)


Just need to find rides to tag along on now in the Barry, South Wales area????
Also, any advice and what to look for on the Fazers??

all m8 - sounds like you have a plan on how you want yer bike to look.





only thing I can advise to look out for on the Fazers is "christ they're quick"



enjoy!
