Thats good news ChristoT, and yes the test you done was far harder than mine in 1985, my son has just passed and got a ZXR 400.


You could have passed you car test and not driven until you could afford a Lambo as well , the restriction makes no sense to me.  :lol :lol

Make sure all your kit is in good nick, 1 or 2 piece leathers, gloves, boots, lid must ( I think) be ACU approved.
Make sure the bike isn't to loud.
Remember not all bikes have brake lights or they disconnect them on track days ( learnt this the hard way)  :eek :eek
watch for your own tiredness levels, don't got out on the last session if you feel tired.
plus every thing else everybody else said :lol :lol
have fun  :D :D

FZS600 Fazer / Re: Anyone had a lowered bike?
« on: 05 May 2014, 09:13:17 pm »
my fazer had a lowered seat and it was painful on my dodgy knees as they were bent more (im 5ft 6) I fitted a standard seat and it was much better however my brother in-law also has dodgy knees (and the same height) found the standard seat caused him painful knee joints so he got a lowered seat which solved the pain, but his rear shock seems very hard so im going to soften it next week as the bike doesn't squat at all when he sits on it ( 10 st )
I think the Fazer is wide to sit on as opposed to being a tall bike as I can flat foot on my R1 easily but not on the Fazer,
I think if the bikes comfy for you lower dog bones would be a good bet?

Has the bulb been changed recently? if so is the new one fitted correctly , check the pin orientation as some are offset and some are straight :rolleyes
