Bought this bike for my son a week or two back for when his licence becomes derestricted in August.

Till then, I thought I would get it insured to have a hoot on myself. Have you see how hard it is to insure a bike not registered in your own name? Assuming it's all registered to me, £80. Registered to my son £250+ with many companies not quoting. Ended up getting it added to my other policy via Hastings Direct who actually understood what was going on but did have a bit of a wobble when I mentioned a non-standard exhaust can.

FFS, how many Ford Focus have a standard exhaust pipe after 15 years??

Anyone have any idea how to remove the tail fairing of a fz1s ?? before i break something trying to do it?

I am on the look out for a good clean lowish mileage Foxeye 600 for my son.

On many ads the fins of the engine are painted and look crap without the silver edges and the decals are missing from the fairing.

I have contacted about 6 of the advertisers

When asked why the engine was painted, 2 said it was not :rolleyes and others did not know  :rolleyes

When asked if the bike has been crashed or dropped they say no and my next question is why are there no decals on the fairing, 2 (a different to previous) said they did not like them another said there are no decals on the fairing as standard :rolleyes Another who said it had new tyres and I asked what tyres and what size they were I was told the front was a 115/70 17 Battleaxe and the rear was a 160/70 17 Battleaxe :eek

One fellow had the nerve to tell me I knew nothing about what an original Fazer looked like as his was original with no decals front or rear, fins painted black, silver wheels and a 120 front tyre. :lol

I give up

Willing to collect a collect only eBay item for me then post on?

Scary, but what a ride by Bruce Anstey.  If they could get him to wake up an hour earlier there would be no stopping him  :lol

Just blagged a nice Fazer Thou rear blue spot brake for my 600. I fancy swapping on the matching torsion bar at same time. I know the 600 one will fit, but the Thunderace one looks so much better...


Before I go grab one off ebay, does anyone have one going spare they'd like to flog cheap?

Well yesterday 1st June  I went to swaffham for my nephews 1st birthday
what a fantastic day I wish I was on the bike !
but blimey hundreds and hundreds of bikes !

some one decided to close Brandon high street for a fete !

oops that was a big mistake traffic each way for miles its the only road through to the coast !

but I was gob smacked by the amount of bike that past us while we sat in traffic

but once we were moving I spotted a GEN2 Fazer parked at the side of the road in Brandon WIY ?
I tried to get your attention  My 6yr daughter hanging out the side of the car doing the Fazer salute !

hope it was nothing serious but I was unable to stop as there was nowhere to stop !
