Wemoto competition winner

Just received an email from Wemoto with regards to a competition they ran.  This was one of the winning pictures.  That's one lovely Fazer!

Dark hedges is stunning, been there a couple of times. Not sure about the 600 satsuma.

      Don't get what's so good for it to win anything, the bikes condition is ropey and it looks suspiciously like it has been photoshopped onto the back ground, the background looks like it was a separate picture of a lower resolution and enlarged to fit the fazer, there is an out of focus noise (grain ) in the background and yet the fazer has a very fine appearance.
 Now the bike
Its orange because its been down the road and they spent the money on the paint but left the scuffed case cover. The word YAMAHA on the tank is too small - so looks like they got some cheap ebay copy's, it should also have FAZER on the fairing. The down pipes have never seen a tube of autosol. Front forks are shitty, loads of clumsy spanner scratches around the rear wheel nut, and looking at the state of the tourque arm and rear caliper I would not be surprised if that is seized, and still running rubber brake lines. I am also not a fan of all the stickers - but that is the only fault I would put down to taste.

Sorry mr orange Fazer owner but at least you do own a Fazer

You know when you've been tango'ed, nice bike but nowt special. Not a fan of the yamaha decal running down the fork stanchion or the Guy Martin skull and crossbones. The owner probably works in Health & Safety, that would explain the orange fixation.
Treat everything in life the way a dog would- if you can't eat it or foc it, forget it.
