General / Opinion on used fazer price
« on: 26 May 2015, 05:03:00 pm »
Hallo folks

 From a dealer, fz1, 2008,  very low mileage, 5 grand


http://www.rideonmotorcycles.co.uk/used-bike/yamaha-fz-1-fazer/


I'm looking at a loan but to take advantage of a  low rate of interest, it has to be from a dealer that they can pay it straight to.
Is this a  reasonable price?  Albeit from a dealer.

For Sale & Wanted / Wanted: Fzs 600 speedo tab
« on: 04 July 2014, 02:16:42 pm »
Hi folks.

I said to Raz at the springmeet that I'd sort him out with the front wheel tab for the speedo on his fazer as i have 2 bikes both off the road. Well it turns out that big Hans took one and i forgot about it and the other bike has one but it's broken.

Seeing as i don't wanna leave Raz in shit, had anyone got one kicking about? Soon, if possible,  as he has a trip north due and I've possibly inadvertently fucked it for him.

Many thanks

General / Tax teaser
« on: 03 June 2013, 10:33:55 pm »
Hallo peeps

Here's a doozy

I have finally got round to catching up with tax details for the 3 bikes.
Currently there's a bit of a mish mash of old v-documents.
Gixxer is SORN'd until october so all fine on that front.

But the 2 fazers seem to be a problem.
I went to SORN em and on both, the direct.gov site says no details exist as I am either too early or too late.
Late, obviously.

Black fazer at least a year out of date I reckon, as it hasn't moved in 2 or so.
Silver fazer ran out in November. 
I have some old v5 references but the site is having none of it.
No reminders have come through for fazers, although thats immaterial.

I've no idea how to proceed. I thought about getting a new v5 for silver,  but only so I can tick the box to scrap before sending back.  I still have v5 for black fazer so might as well fill it out and send it off.

Any ideas? Of the sort that avoid big fines?

Mucho thanks

General / Handling....
« on: 22 May 2013, 08:13:57 pm »
Well now that I've had a brief shot of the 750, I couldn't help but notice that the thing wants to drop as soon as you put any, and I mean any, bias to one side. Is this a hazard of a 160 kilo bike with clip ons? Its mondo bizarro and gonna take a bitty gettin used tae.

Is that the way these sporty bikey things are, is it?

General / Gixxer problems

Yo guys. Wrong place an that (again) so sorry but I have a major issue ahead of the springmeet amd really need some major help major quick.
Apologies

I posted this on the gixxer forum. If anyone here has any ideas, I'm open to 'em

 Y2k 750y clutch issue

Hi folks, long time no see. Hope you are all well.Finally trying to get this 750 on the road and been hit with a few issues.

It has not run for about a year or so until the other day, after fitting new battery, runs fine in neutral.Oil was horrible so changed it.

I had it running and in first gear down the road and back before the old alarm issue killed it (since removed and runs fine as above) some time back so I know 1st has engaged in the pastSo, new oil and went to put into 1st and it jerked forward and stalled. I've adjusted clutch at lever, fully out and also took side off to adjust at sprocket cover. It can go so heavy that I can barely pull the lever so I reckon the cable is ok. I've loosened it back off a bit. Tried the locknut screw on the sprocket cover behind the rubber as per the haynes manual and it has made no difference.What I can gather from a google search is that the clutch plates may be stuck together and therefore will require stripping and cleaning. Sometimes this can be due to oil change and type of oil used apparently.

Before I do any more invasive stuff, has anyone encountered this previously?
Worst case scenario, I'll remove it all and do it the way the haynes says but I'm hoping one of you more learned folks may have experienced something like this before. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated

Sorry for the general location admins, just looking for a quick answer atm so I can stick it on and worry about other stuff for later

See the pic

It has BS stamp but no e mark. Pretty sure it don't need both eh?

It has perforations at bottom, assuming therefore that its baffled. It roars but doesn't say anywhere not for road use.

Thoughts?

How can I get Nigel Slater to marry me?

He's not in his usual spot in the observer today and I feel lost.
I can only deduce that I must stalk him and have him be my beau.
Indeed I risk injunctions and the like but spunking over the life size canvas print on my wall just isn't enough any more.

I am empty without him and sensual description of chips and halibut. His extolling of the virtues of crunchy nuts in a bean and chorizo stew. His magnificent  verbalising of sweetcorn fritters on a beach in Manky-on-sea. All I have is self loathing and misplaced longing scaling down my soul like an overcooked chowder

I must have him.

Please help

Of localised fire and police services in scotland. As of monday, we go federal.

We received an email from the chief to say as it was both the end of the service and his tenure as (*ahem* retired and came back) chief he gave us a half day off. He ended by sarcastically saying he was our best ever chief. He's a joker


If he really was the best ever, he would have given us the full day off-

So that is now coming on 2 years since I got the desire.

Long term? Not amazing, but overall decent. Not sure ill be back to HTC in a hurry.

So next.

Galaxy Note II


Reasoning:
Big SAMOLED screen (for smut, of course), quad core, 2g RAM, BELLS....WHISTLES.....


But mainly, the stylus. It will be handy for work, as I'd rather carry that around than a folder when carrying out inspections. Just load up the form and write down there and then.
Tidier desk etc etc.

Does anyone have one then?
What's it like in practice?

General / IT help please
« on: 24 September 2012, 02:27:43 am »
Can any IT bods help?
I decided to reinstall Windows. Deleted partition and full format from CD. Forgot to back up all the drivers. Not that it would have mattered, as it seems I have mostly no hardware, ergo, VGA display, no Ethernet, soundcard and probably some other stuff. How can I get XP to recognise the hardware that's in the system and how then can I install the drivers? For info its a Dell Latitude D531 with XP SP2. ATI card and connexant something or other. Many thanks in advance
