parked my bike in town for 10 minutes come back and notice this on the front of my bike!! no fucking respect! really deep gna have to cover with this i reckon http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/YAMAHA-3D-DOMED-BADGE-STICKER-GRAPHIC-DECAL-MOTORBIKE-MX-ENDURO-CAR-SUPERBIKE/152630166078?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/YAMAHA-3D-DOMED-BADGE-STICKER-GRAPHIC-DECAL-MOTORBIKE-MX-ENDURO-CAR-SUPERBIKE/152630166078?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649)

any other ideas?

bastards
- i wouldnt get the domed one like that as it will might try and peel itself away from a curved surface
its designed to go on flat stuff i think - maybe just wet sand out the scratch and use a metalic silver touch up pen
technically clean, use toothpick to fill scratch - wetsand scratch and excess touchup out as best as possible without removing all of the clearcoat
this is overkil but will give you the idea

Any cameras in the area (criminal damage)?
There'll be a regional Police force CCTV contact number, where they might just be able to retrieve some footage?
Makes your blood boil. I'd just buy a new Screen.

Apologies, was viewing on the mobile. Didn't see the picture properly. Could it be sanded down and rattle can sprayed? Or will need filling. :(

I really don't get what pleasure wankers get from doing shit like that 😡😡 my wife's cars been scratched 6 times outside our house and my car about 4, it really pisses me off.
I would get another Yamaha decal, flatten the scratches down very carefully maybe 1200 wet and dry ?? Then use a touch up pen or paint on a toothpick or very fine paintbrush put the Yamaha decal over the original as most of the scratch is on the decal.
Then hope Karma does its job and the wankers get it back 4 fold
-
such small amount of the decal damaged - could just use a mettalic silver
next sticker might not be same size and are (on tank at least) under the clearcoat

It's really deep scratch , at the mo I have pulled the decal off and have rubbed down the lips with 1200 and filled the scratch with scratch pen clear coat , going to let that cure then flatten with 2000 and polish out , wish me luck .
Wankers probably wish they had there own bike but don't because it's hard to save up at the job centre. C##ts!

God knows what goes through someone's mind!!

My first attempt at body work lol you can see where I buzzed through clear coat behind the second A , tried to correct it with more clear then flatting that but just kept lifting and looking worse, so I cut my loses and stuck the decal on haha

cheers dude , how are you liking your black widow exhaust mate ? Been watching your youtube vids (subbed) thinking about getting this one myself http://www.blackwidowexhausts.co.uk/fzs600-fazer-600-exhaust-link-pipe-and-200mm-round-stainless-steel-silencer-6351-p.asp (http://www.blackwidowexhausts.co.uk/fzs600-fazer-600-exhaust-link-pipe-and-200mm-round-stainless-steel-silencer-6351-p.asp)

only issue i have with it is the baffle is well and truly stuck in there
but saying that its plenty loud enough to be noticed but not boys in blue noticed so i havent really tried to get it out
definatly gets some attention when i open it up in town centres
(i really should stop riding through center of kendal though as its ment to be taxis and buses only)
i was looking at that exact same one but decided to go oval to keep it looking slimline
(and traffic filtering freindly but ruined that now with wide renthals on)

I'm eyeing up a full Black Widow system, after seeing (on youtube) alot of owners of new MT-07's were running BW Cans and raving about them.
Although youtube vids never seem to do exhaust reviews justice.. you just don't get that deep rumble/vibratio (that we crave :evil ) coming through a computer screen!
Likely go for a 300mm Silencer. They look a nice fit on the rear end of a Fazer (not too long or short) - still with decent back pressure, plus not a "shorty" which would be much louder.

Have you tried PUSHING (tapping) the muffler out from the inside? Using a piece of wood pushed through the silencer, from the link pipe end?
(instead of using pliers to "pull" it out).
