What's the advantage.....if any....of the two screwed cable lube thingys as opposed to the single screw type? If the single ones are smaller, isn't that better?
Hi, The name is Malcolm from Kirkcaldy, Fife.
Had my Fazer 600 for 4 years now but has been off road for the last 3.
In need of a few parts when money allows.
Glad to find a sit which hopefully will add some help in the future and look forward to chatting with members soon.
Reg's, Malc.
Hi, guys I have just had read of Timbos thread but didn't quite cover what I was after. As the title really, I'm after the widest bars possible without replacing brake pips etc, I would also like some with a straighter angle. Any info much appreciated.
My Gen 1 was Ivanised yesterday! So a big thank you to Ivan for manufacturing the kit and to Mike for fitting it......
....and I can't stop grinning :rollin
As soon as I opened the throttle it was immediately obvious that the difference with the Full Monty is huge. The throttle responds as soon as you open it and the motor now just pulls all the way. Stonking!! I will have to watch out for the rozzers now tho as I feel the :evil on my shoulder.
So if you are in any doubt DO IT!!
Out of interest I have a Quill T3 end can fitted and a K&N air filter.
Perhaps we should nickname Mike "Tunes" after the well known lozenge that allows your engine to breathe more easily!!! :lol

I got home Thursday night with oil all down my right leg, boot and back half of the bike. The oil filler cap had gone :-(.
A ring and drive around the local dealers resulted in none in stock. I popped into a local mechanic that I have used a few times in the past for mot and tyres and once for some work, bit I am by no means a regular, just on the off chance he had one on the shelf.
Although he did not have one spare, he took the filler cap from his own bike and gave me that to keep me going until he can get a new one on Wednesday - he knows I use the bike to get to work and he is away with the family until Wednesday so not using the bike.
Last time he did work, he had a 3 week wait until he found I was going touring in 1 week, so he snuck me in so the bike was good to go.
Bloody nice bloke, good mechanic and reasonable rates too. If anyone is looking for a mechanic, tyres or MOT near Uckfield, East Sussex, I can highly recommend Terry Everest at Everest Motorcycles.
Hope 'advertising' is ok, but it is rare to find people like this.
