Fazer8 / FZ8 / Fitting of Powerbronze Bellypan
« on: 22 April 2013, 03:42:28 pm »
It's taken me some time but have just gotten round to fitting some bits n bobs to mey Fazer 8.
Powerbronze fender extender fitted - good job
SP Engineering tail tidy & indicators fitted - good job
Powerbronze Belly pan nearly fitted - looks as if the rectifier prevents the bracket supplied with the bellypan being fitted. I've gone back to Powerbronze with the problem and they are looking into it. In the mean time I've looked at some images of the Fazer 8 (naked & faired) and some show a rectifier behind right front peg and some don't. Does anyone know what's the story here regards a rectifier being there or not?
Thx
Paul

Fazer8 / FZ8 / New Fazer 8 Owner in the Emerald isle
« on: 26 February 2013, 10:24:00 am »
Just said hello in the introduction section. Moving from an africa twin to a Fazer 8. This'll be the first Yamaha I've owned in 30 years of motorcycling. I wasn't intending to buy a new bike but whilst browsing (as one does) a local bike shop last week I was quite taken by the looks of the bike and even more taken with it after a test run. It's a demo bike with 50 miles on it and dealer was straight up about wanting to make space for 2013 models so a good deal was had. Likley collect bike next week and from then onwards  hopefully can make some positive contributions to the forum.

Introduction / Newbie from the Emerald isle
« on: 26 February 2013, 10:17:13 am »
Hi all, just saying hello for now. I'm due to collect Fazer 8 in a week or so.. can't wait. Currently riding an Africa Twin for those adventures trips (that I never seem to go on) and a Z650 for those sunny sunday runs (when are sundays' ever sunny over here?). Also being a shorty I've had enough of trying to manage a quite tall bike that runs out of puff around 90 mph+. I'm sure I'll miss the twin but onwards and upwards !!
