Just picked up my 2000 Fazer 600 last night 8)


It's good to be back on a bike, even if it's only being used a commuter tool. Been to work on it today (28 mile round trip) and all is well, I just need an end can to liven things up a little.


It was a toss up between a Fazer and a BMW F800R, obviously the FZS won. Especially as it was 1/4 the price of the BM

so much for never going to be true !  :lol

I am now a firm believer  :pokefun

I've just got my 2000 Fazer and first thing on my list is a better exhaust, has anyone got one lying around before I hand over my hard earned to PipeWerx? I promised myself not to spend any money on this but an exhaust is a necessity 8)

Hi Guys


I'm in need of a mirror for the left hand side.


Anybody got one lying around?


Thanks

my old raliegh is well past its best so im looking for a comfy bike for 99% road and the towpath on the odd trip. i only have a budget of £200 and hate twistgrip gearchanges. not bothered about suspension or disc brakes cos its just something else to go wrong :rolleyes . i found this on amazon and it looks very nice. any ideas or alternatives please  http://www.amazon.co.uk/Barracuda-Mens-L...02&sr=8-23

I just did a quick test on my TPS setting and the needle on the rev counter was about 5300rpm.
Is that okay being thereabouts, or should it be bang on 5000rpm?

My bike is in great condition, never been dropped, could probably do with a wash but still looks brilliant. It comes with a bunch of extras, these include:

• Heated grips, great in the winter and means you can wear summer gloves all year round
  
• Scottoiler, along with the fairly recent chain replacement means you won't have to worry about the chain
  
• New tyres just over a year back
  
• Topbox, very convenient
  
• Saddlebags, great for a weekend away
  

• MOT till May next year
  
• Full service was done at the same time as the MOT
  
• Tax till December
  
• Two black keys and the red key
  
• Two keys for the Topbox

A recent post asked what was the longest you'd kept a bike for. It reminded me of a friend who'd bought a Honda RS250 new in 1981 and sold it last year... so, a nice round 30 years of ownership (it still started after a couple of kicks too). On the other hand, he'd only put 12,000 miles on it in all that time!


Perhaps a better guide to how well we get on with a particular bike would be how much we've used it... rather than how long we've been prepared to store it. So, what's the greatest mileage you've added to a bike?

bit of a long shot but if anyone has a trail type rolling frame with V5 not too far from the south wales M4 corridor, i'd be interested. i have a cb250 rs engine so it needs to be roomy enough for a 4 stroke motor. thanks. (BTW i'm on ebay every day!)
