Title: Newbie fazer owner
Post by: Andy-Fazer-thou on 21 August 2013, 08:02:58 pm
Hi All
Im Andy im 49 years old and just got back into biking i passed my test November last year
to break myself in i bought a 600 bandit very nice i really liked it but got used to it so went for summat different and looking back now wish id kept the bandit had a ZX9R streetfighter & a ZX7R sports bike i wasnt happy with either of them.
A friend of mine suggested a Fazer 1000 so i went to look at 1 or 2 and found a nice one at the right price with a little work to do
So what do i think I LOVE IT great power good looking and shit hot handling. I really feel comfy and safe on this machine.
so time to get it back to the stud it should be
new rear tyre, new Renthal chain & sprockets, new heavy duty clutch & springs, Brake pads all round, carbs cleaned & balanced, Full Service and new MOT pending.
So Thats me Hope theres more owners of fazers near me for a ride out sometime soon

Welcome...great looking bike...don't forget to get it Ivanised and if your replacing the chain and sprockets consider dropping a tooth on the front for better acceleration.
