Had the bike fail it's MoT on binding brakes (I have the rubber grease so no probs there) and a notchy headrace bearing. Having never done a headrace bearing change before is it something that can be done without bearing pullers and drifts or is it best left to the garage?
Thanks bbb

I have a pair of Frank Thomas boots from J&S that I bought a size larger to fit my wide feet. Foot moves around a little but with thick socks, it's fine.
I also have a seriously bashed up pair of Alpinestar race boots from the sports-bike riding days. These are falling apart, but I find there's more "feel" on these.
I had a pair of Sidi race boots too, but these were hell on my toes, ending up with corns and often cramps in the feet!
RiDE mag seems to be recommending "adventure" boots for road riding in their most recent print.
Any wide-footed foccers on here? Would love a recommendation for a summer pair please. In the £100 range, as I don't feel I need Alpinestar race boots again.
Thx

Ok, so not for Fazer hence general section. I'm rebuilding an old KZ, and I started thinking about clear clutch/flywheel/starter motor covers. Has anybody heard of such a thing, and know where I might get some - I would guess they have to be custom made especially for such an old bike.
I just thought it might look a bit 'trick' to show off some workings of the bike.

Hi everyone,
I am new to here so pleased to meet everyone.
I have just moved to Spain and brought my bike with me 2004 FZS1000 which I think is the dogs.........
I am just about to put Spanish plates on her then do some touring, but feel that I may benefit from a taller screen to cut out some of the wind blast in the hills. Any suggestions, recomendations will be much appreciated as to what "works".
Thanks in advance
H
