New face from Norfolk
« on: 29 April 2012, 09:23:34 pm »
Hello all,
Violets Daddy from Norfolk here, aka Paul, been riding 15 years in all weathers, a daily commuter (don't talk to me about rain and hosepipe bans!!!)
Just bought myself a nice mark I FZS1000, in black and red.
Had a Fazer 6 about ten years ago that I really like but broke it, replaced it with a VFR and have had VFR's since.
Moving back to the Fazer as I've forgotten how good they are, hopefully pick it up tuesday.
Will post pics when it arrives and will then be fitting an oiler to it.
Got a trip across France at the end of next month that I'm looking forward to, the bike and I can spend a week bonding!
Hopefully if the rain stops I can join in on some ride outs if there are any in the flatlands of Norfolk...
Once again, hello all!!
Violets Daddy

Strange how so many of us come back to Fazers-theyre just so good at everything! Welcome :)

Indeed,
I picked it up yesterday and had a lovely, leisurely ride home.
New tyres thrown in with the price (PR2's)
Bit windy though compared to my VFR so I'll be looking for an aftermarket screen.
The MRA seems to be the weapon of choice so I'll look there.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome Chaps, maybe meet some of you over the coming dryer? months
 
Paul

Funny that, I was thinking only yesterday how good my Fazer is. When I had my previous one I wasn't as impressed but this bike is great. I bought it to slow down after an R1 but this is actually quicker on the road.
