Hi Folks,
Went up to see Mike Greatorex in Liskeard, Cornwall this morning to have my 2002 Fazer ivanised (Full Monty), I'm sure a lot of you know of Mike as he does numerous trips over from Spain to work on Fazers. I've been toying with the idea of getting it done for quite a while now & used this forum as a resource for research, opinions etc & as regulars on this forum will know I don't post anything on here but I would just like to say a HUGE THANKS too Mike, he really is a fantastic fella & he's done a cracking job on my bike, to say I'm pleased with the results is a massive understatement!
The difference it has made is incredible!!
So for anybody out there considering getting Mike to Ivanise your Fazer, Do It! I can't recommend Mike highly enough, a real genuine, helpful, nice guy. It'll be without doubt, the best £295 you ever spend on the bike!!
So Thanks again Mike, your a Star!
One very Happy Christina, with a very big Cheesy grin! :D

Mine's booked to be done mid-May...

Hi Chris,
out of curiosity did you keep the standard front sprocket ? Only reason I ask is that I bought another Fazer the other day and it has the Full Monty kit fitted, the owner said he went up a tooth on the front as it proved to be a handful and the front wheel wanted to lift way too much?
cheers

would really love to get it done to mine. from what Ive read it addresses a lot of the vibey issues with it. If only there were a few more Scottish members wanting it done too, to make it worth mikes while?
glad to hear it was worth the money though, im sure you will enjoy it :)

Had mine done last sept and couldnt agree more, i absolutely love my Fazer and wouldnt change it, also agree that Mike is one awesome guy :thumbup

Mine is planned in May too. Can't wait. Off for a week in France the following week

Diy for me..got the kit but too many projects at the moment...

Got the full monty done years ago and it still runs perfect :D Huge difference compared to my standard one.

Hi Chris
Thanks for the kind words and for making the trip to Liskeard yesterday - great day for a test ride on the way home, eh? I hope you get plenty of sunshine this summer to enjoy the bike now. Don't forget to give Steve a road test soon ;)
I'm up for a trip based in Glasgow or Edinburgh later in the year if enough owners sign up to make it viable. :)
Cheers, everyone!
Mike

Not far at all ... good roads up your way, too. Well, good all around the region, really. :)
Safe trip back with the new bike. Let's talk about a meet on your return.
