Welcome Sean,
glad your loving the fazer, post us a pic of your new ride.
It'll be interesting to hear how you compare it to the ZZR  :)

thanks all for the welcome, posted the pic of my bike. Fitted a satnav to it last night, fingers crossed the battery is still good  :rolleyes

@celticdog, its a definitely different to the ZZR but in a good way I think.  ZZR was quicker but also a little more unstable I think.  Either way they both keep pace with a Porsche so cant complain  :evil

Nice one Sean! I think the  :faz will be a little more comfortable on long ride outs for you. Nice yellow bike, are you planning any mods?

Love the yellow, mine is black but thinking of a re-spray at some point and yellow is looking favourable  :lol

Honest answer is it going to leave it alone other than the seat, feels like it could tear quite abit.

Any suggestions would be good  :rolleyes

Nice clean looking bike, engine looks very well

Is there a tear on the Seat?

If not, spray it liberally with WD40 and just wipe of the excess and leave it dry into it over night.
Do it once or twice and it will keep it supple.

I have treated many seats including my own. Once the WD40 dries in it won't be any more slippery than it is at present.

Son of a Gun is another option but I have found WD40 better as it is less slippery when dry.
