What looks and operates best on the faser???

Fuzzys mirror mod,
handlebar mirrors and the fairing mounts blanked (were can i get blanks)
or bar ends and again blank fairing mounts.

This is due to out bog standard mirrors being bog standard crap lol the view is of my elbows and i need to see not only traffic behind me but the daughter is now a rider and follows us to rallies etc (obvoiusly now need to make sure dont lose her)

answers on a postcard  :b :b :b

any pics of the options be helpful too

As part of my ongoing refresh of my gen1, I am replacing the chain and sprockets. Its actually the first time I have had the sprocket cover off since buyingthe bike in 08 and was expecting some force to remove the sprocket nut , but it was almost loose ! The copper tab washer was in place, and the nut  came off very easily.I was quite surprised to see a lot of wear from the sprocket , as the rear is almost like new ( 37 k miles !)...but the front is u/s...and the teeth very thin indeed, and visibly hooked .The chain itself is not totally worn out , but it was a bit of a shock to see how bad the sprocket was. Food for thought as if it had got any worse, possibly  the chain could have jammed, should one or more teeth collapse.... :eek

Hey guys. I hope all is well.


I am basically a dumbass when it comes to my bike. I've been a biker for just a few months, and I am curious about why my Fazer doesn't like being turned on any more. (Oooo-err)


Could this be the battery? The lights turn on, and the starter motor makes a noise, it just sometimes doesn't want to start.


Is it any of these?


1) The battery needs charging, and as a new biker, I don't realise I might have to take out the battery and charge it, cos I am unaware that the bike doesn't do it itself.


2) The battery might be as old as the bike (12 years) and I just need a new one.


3) The started motor is f***ed.


I cannot think of anything else it could be.


I have also read the stuff on batteries in hot poop, and also read the manual, and it doesn't really give me an answer.


Would be nice if someone could give me some advice, so I may not have to go to a garage and give them lots of money . . . .


Cheers!
