You may know about this one but a friend of mine just phoned me as he was concerned about an email from an old school friend now living in Australia.......



Hi,

How are you doing today? Am really sorry to bother you with this email but i just want you to know what i am passing through. Am presently in United Kingdom for a Seminar, but unfortunately for me i lost my wallet in a taxi where my money and other valuable things were kept.I have gone to the CAB unit to search for it but I was unlucky and they said they can do noting about what has happened to me right now and I made a report to the police about the incident, i want you to assist me with a loan of £1,800 or whatever you can afford urgently to sort-out my hotel bills and get myself back home. I promise to pay you back as soon as i returned, Kindly let me know if you can assist so that i can send you the details for you to send the money to me in Manchester.

Thanks and God bless

A quick search on Google shows it is yet another scam. Are they getting smarter?

November Photo Comp ?

It's the 7th already .. will there be a photo competiton this month .. or did I miss something ?

Polar Bear.

I am looking for the loom that is inside the fairing on an 06 gen 1 fazer 1000, i am removing the fairing and replacing it with a single headlight and as the fairing is complete i would rather get another wiring loom to alter

Had a couple of bids from possible idiots.
When looking at their feed back there are a couple of "complete time wasters" comments, but with a positive feedback icon ??

One of them has only one feedback (positive) yet it says avoid ??

Am I missing something or can you not leave negative feedback now?

For some cracking new rock music check out www.soulweaverband.co.uk for their new album 'Liberty' They are an independant band with sod all money for publicity and absolutely foccing great, if you buy the tee shirt as well you'll be helping oldmotherfoccer's holiday fund as well.
You just have to love a pub band that does their own stuff and doesn't do mustang sally! (they don't do westlife either)
I've known them all for a long time now and they are lovely people well deserving of support, while you are at it look up the track remebrance day they did a few years ago for help the heroes and feel guilty enough to buy a poppy...
Come on you miserable foccers get yer money out!

Frankenfazer has gone to a new home leaving me with just the Fazer from the Black Lagoon (Working title) so it's a 98 R in black and rust and will be my Fazer for 2012 or until business picks up. Sooo on a cursory examination she needs --stanchions, headlamp bulb carrier for the ns lamp, carb rubbers, stainless headers, battery...please bear me in mind if you are getting rid of any of these?

Hi everybody. Returning to the site after a while. I'm 62, live in Altrincham, Cheshire and ride an '08 fz1 fazer with full fairings and Akrapovic system. Did visit the old site on occasion and enjoyed it. Do a lot of 2 up with the missus as pillion as well.

After a few months with loads of other stuff going on, I got the bike out this weekend and then decided to see what was going on here.  Only to find it's not on Yuku any more and my old login didn't work so registered again.  Now, I'm a newbie, a CBT Wobbler with no posts to my name.  I initially thought it was the same for everyone but if that's the case, some of you have been posting near continually!

Can I get my post count and title back or am I starting from scratch again?

I'm a bit stuck with the XS400 - it turns out it has an unusual front caliper normally found on an RD400F Daytona - I have two manuals and neither tells you how to take it apart because they describe another type. I've googled until I'm frsutrated but can't find a manual
This is the one on my bike


Looking at this view the flat head screw in the haynes manual is nowhere to be seen


Any ideas?
