Going Retro - Some Rare Stuff Up For Sale Soon
« on: 21 March 2016, 09:09:26 pm »
For a few reasons - but mainly due to the hassle of trying to get my Fazer through Spanish MOT-equivalent with non-standard bits - I've decided to remove some of the many goodies I've put on the old girl over the years.

These will be going in the For Sale section soon and I'll be bringing the items back to the UK with me when I drive over in late June.

Just a taster at this stage:

Akrapovic conical race header system (stainless steel) and titanium end can.  No longer available, these are rare to find and in really good condition. 

Ohlins shock with remote preload adjuster.  Overhauled about 4k miles ago and fitted with .85 spring.  Will be sold with original .9 spring in the box as well. 

LSL rearsets.  Light and lovely.

TCP undertray and painted side panels in original, faster blue.  Deep Purplish Blue Metallic Cocktail, to be precise. 

I'll let you know when the auction starts ... ;)  Start saving!  :lol

I've a spare set but not for sale.  The reason I'm reluctant to provide a carbs-only mod service is that if they're not not refitted correctly and synch'ed properly, issues might arise which are nothing to do with the work I've done to the carbs themselves. 

I'll say the same to you as to anyone else who asks me about DIY 'Ivanising' ... if you have the skills to remove and refit the carbs correctly, you have the skills to do the actual carb work yourself.    :)

Mike, I'm interested in the Akrapovic conical race header system depending on price of course.

Very tempted by the rearsets, Mike. Will have to see how many pennies I've collected by June!

I'll photo the items individually and list them in April.  We leave for the UK at the start of May and I'll be bringing everything back with me in the motorhome then.

Meanwhile, here's a couple of photos of the bike showing the parts in place. ;)

Hi Mike,
I'd be interested in the Ohlins.We could maybe discuss when I get Ivanised.
