been looking for a while and i know a few have mentioned a Hampshire meet, any suggestions guys or have i already missed any meets, i have been going to Micks burger bar Portsmouth but wondered if there is anything closer to Southampton

Hi there, I'm Andy from Southampton. I have bought a black Gen1 Fazer 1000 with the idea of taking it to the Alps in May. The ride quality and comfort of the Fazer is a revelation for me after spending all my days on sports bikes! I have an R6 shock to fit will be doing a few more upgrades no doubt in the future......

Beware Cyclists :o)  :eek 

I sent this one out to a few friends last week .. got me thinking it might raise a smile or whatever on here too?

What you see is for real .. Red cycle lanes in Denia .. smack down the centre of traffic lanes on the main roads and around traffic islands.

I risked life and limb (by staying still for about 15 minutes) to get these shots .. not a single push bike inside the lanes (so they are not all daft). 

I think the basic idea is that bike riders should stay within the red lines and not duck and dive amongst the cars and trucks.  Of course we all know how much notice theses guys take of traffic laws.

We all know these push bike riders .. No Road Tax, No Insurance, No Nothing and of course the local (Town) Police here are not interested one little bit .. even more so when the rules are as daft as this. 


Just for the record .. I was many years ago a very keen long distance competitive cyclists .. member of the winning Royal Navy team in the Inter Services Tour of Italy, etc.  So I have no axe to grind with bike riders .. other then with the Red Light jumping brigade!  :evil

I think that maybe it could have something to do with 'joining up' cycle lanes outside the town centre .. in order to qualify for more EU funding .. Euros per Metre  ?    Coming to a town near you .. any day soon  :rolleyes  I recon.

Stay Safe Peeps .. ride on the WHITE line  8)    Trev  The Polar Bear in Spain.

In the imminent arrival of my first Fazer 1000 this week, I dusted the leathers off, and cleaned my helmet, (not my cock). Shes a bit dated now, and perhaps its time for a new one..Now you hear different reports saying today cheaper helmets are just as good as the expensive ones, so has anyone got any good recommendations for a decent but affordable lid.

Hi guys!


Just a quick message to introduce myself. Retired Brit living on Cebu island in the Philippines. I am on my 2nd Gen1 Fazer! Love this particular one so much that I sold it after buying it new then bought it back four years later. Still runs like a dream!

...but he thought fuck it and tried anyway.  :lol

I couldn't stop laughing at this.


Up, up aaannnddd DOWN!

Hi Everyone,
My love is an 07 FZ1S - had it just over a year and done tour of France, Switzerland and Black Forest, 2-up with luggage fitted.
This is the ultimate bike - the one that should have replaced the old FJ, can`t find fault with it.
