Tell 'em you don't have a phone line, confuses the foc out of them 

Mine's Ivanated (full) and if I put the baffle in my exhaust it creates a 'bog down' point at about 5000rpm, so if you've got full ivans kit and still have stock exhaust or baffled aftermarket, that could be it..

Or it could be the exup 

Hmm, I wish Pitt, Unfortunately, I've just got a new battery (recommended on this site) which came fully charged.
I've been riding it every day (ish) since start of March... It seems fine now, and thinking about it, it sounded like it was struggling to start for a few days before, so maybe the charge just isn't quite enough to 'top up' the battery (only 10 miles to work )

wow thanks for the detailed replies, they got a little bit technical but I think I got it (ISO how sensitive the sensor is to light? kinda like exposure?)
and noise means distortion in the picture? and also noise in terms of zooming whilst filming 

Breadlord, I did deliberately go for a bridge type camera, because I felt that as I'll be keeping it as my main (and only) camera I'd be better off getting one I can play about with a bit. once in NZ, we'll buy a van anyway, so size/attractiveness isn't as much of an issue Although I agree it'll need to be hardy..
But as phil says, the 'sturdy' cameras are all mostly point and click which is annoying because it's a damn good idea...
I feel it might be worth getting one of those disposable waterproof cameras when we're out there, and keeping this camera as a main one?
I think the AA batteries are a good idea too, I've got some rechargeable ones somewhere and will just generally be more travel friendly

Thanks for all the replies, I've tried to do a few searches myself, but the sheer choice makes it very hard, especially as I don't know what I want!

The man says otherwise... but who knows
Rossi in BSB anyone?

Isn't it just so you can say 'set Fazers to stun' ???

Hi,
Another electricity related question...
I've read in my haynes manual (and on here) that my voltage across the battery terminals at 5000rpm should be about 14.5v
It's only 13.5v I've checked all the wires and connections that I can see.
Using the guide in the Haynes manual, I've tested the alternator and the resistance is slightly higher than it should be across all the connections but that's the only issue I could see. Would this account for the lower voltage?
My fazer is the 04 one, so lights are on with the engine, would this drop the voltage to 13.5v?

Thanks everyone, google hasn't thrown up anything, I reckon this site's saved me a good amount of money (and blood pressure)

May day run, biggest unorganised bike meetup in the country i think...
Hastings, turn up

If you are lucky enough to buy a new bike, get the dealer to fit all the add-ons you might like.

All my Fazer add-ons were done at purchase and can be legitimately claimed for.

Friend of mine had £2000 taken of his car claim because it had alloy wheels as standard from the dealer (insurance told him it was added extra)
so always check first.


I tried listing all my mods, premium went from £250 to £1500... And that's for the 'non performance' things such as heated grips and crash bars..
Probably because I'm 22...

Check your insurance, some say it's void if you've got an advisory you haven't rectified (think I read that on an MOT certificate)

Hey Simon,
Nothing to do with your problem, but I changed my fork oil last year as a total newbie
That link is invaluble and I also looked up a few videos on the internet which helped

If I can do it, you certainly can
