Let my not expire....deliberately... When I got the fazer it was due in January and have gradually moved in into the more rideable months.

Whipped off bellypan and downpipes for a spuce up. Sanded em back a tad ready for a coat of black hi temp paint tomorrow. Also wanted to replace the downpipe header studs but they're not.budging so rather than accidently snapping one off,I'm leaving them. Just new gaskets n nuts. Also cleaning the crud off the front of the engine and repaint with Granville engine paint with a brush.Finish it tomorrow bright n early as I've got the day off.
Got pulled over by a couple of coppers at the end of my road on the way into work, who informed me my tail lights weren't working. Nice enough blokes, rather than do me they escorted me home instead. Turns out my sidelights are out too so I'll have a look when I get home tonight. Probably a fuse or something simple like that.

Check your ignition barrel, chances are you've sheared a wire at the barrel. I had that very same fault, and another bloke on here recently had the same issue. Easy to bypass if you don't mind losing your parking lights.
Yeah nuts came off with 2 Mins of Wd40 soak and engine startup to warm em up a bit. Came off no problem. I must be the lucky one. Not going to attempt to remove the studs though. Even though I have a new shiny set on the shelf.
