Hello foc
« on: 15 February 2015, 06:52:00 pm »
Hello all my name is Tom I have owned an fzs 600 1999 for a few years now it was basically my first bike and I love to bits however I bought a gsxr a couple of years ago and now having got the sports bike thing out of my system I wanna get my unused unloved fazer up and going again used it a couple of times towards the end of last year and realised it like riding on a wet sponge suspension wise not good the r6 rear shock is a must read a bit about it on here but still slightly in the dark about which forks will fit my my bike or if I even have to change them can I change internals on original forks ? Thus saving loads of hassle or is best for new forks

I only ride in summer for pleasure can't beat a Sunday morning blast my bike is mechanically sound or will be with a good service then I wanna use it this summer but just can't live with suspension the way it is so any help or advise would be much appreciated thanks for reading

Greetings tommyk, and welcome to the foc-ers!

Feel free to browse, buy, and definately join in the poo flinging as and when it happens round here.
Loads of gurus in here to help you along your merry Fazer way, and some cracking characters that haven't got a clue! :D
Plenty of meetings too so you can get together and see their faces. (although some you wouldn't want to)

Speaking of seeing, we need to see your ride, so show us your fazer!
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

Welcome and good luck with the recommissioning-suspension upgrade will improve things no end and you will then have a big silly grin when you ride just like a lot of us "addicts" :lol
