I've bought a Yamaha rack for the fazer 8. Has anyone fitted one before? Just trying to figure out how much of the plastic to cut out and what's the best way of doing it. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Looking at an 05 thou for sale with FZ1 on the fairing, not Fazer. I'm sure that I read somewhere that this was the American model, does that mean it is restricted or different in any way other than cosmetics ?
Cheers

Got this on Saturday morning, just had a bit of time to wheel out for a quick pic. 2004, nice condition, loads of service history, 2 previous owners, looks bog standard but have a receipt for a change of fork oil & the forks dropped 5mm. I have the previous owners old V5C so i'm going to drop him a line to see if there are any less obvious mods that have been done.
looking at selling the old girl on within the next couple of weeks, i'm leaving the country soon and will buying another bike when i'm settled and steady, plus bikes are cheap where i'm going (Guernsey) so i can pick up a low mileage example of something for not much outlay.
so,, she's a 1998 model on an S plate, just coming up to 30,000 miles. she has a rad guard, fender extender, tribo seat cover, stainless down pipes and carbon effect end can, she also has headlamp shields that are not currently fitted.
the top fairing has been cut down due to too many cracks ( she was a cat D a few years back and had cosmetic damage and the original fairing was repaired/glassed up but had cracked over the years) so I trimmed it back and secured it firmly.
she has 8 months MOT and has just had a new battery, all tyres and consumables are in top notch condition ( the rear tyre has about 300 miles on it BT010 Battlax) and she will also come with original mirrors and bars plus the fairing brackets etc.
I know that some people expect the world for their bikes and refuse to shift on a price that they have in mind, i have no clue of its worth and trust you guys to give me an honest opinion of its value.
so , what price should i be looking for guys? it's going to be listed on here when i have no more need of it :'(
Hey! I purchased a GlPro gear indicator (Green Display to match the neutral gear light)
I had a look at fitting it today (First warm day for ages) and realised that the old arthritic wrists are not going to allow that to happen.
I can not grip and hold small parts anymore, and I know that if I try I will get frustrated and I will pay for the next few days with a load of pain and wrists in braces.
So I not going down that route, as tempting as it is.
The upshot of that is I now am the proud owner of a 'GlPro X-Type GlPRO X' that is the indicator display, and the 'GlPro X Type GPX-YO1' that is the harness for the Fazer FZS 600 this is now surplus to requirement.
I did remove both the Display and the Harness from their packaging, but it has gone back in exactly as it was, the clear screen film is still on the display, see pictures
I paid £99.99 on 7th Feb this year including P&P see picture 1 of my eBay purchase page.
If anyone interested they can have it for £50 including P&P, but remember it is a GREEN display colour.

Hi There, I thought I would introduce myself as I am the proud owner of a Yamaha 1st gen. boxeye fazer 600 on a 99 plate. Mine is red. Passed my bike test just before Christmas and bought the Fazer 3 days later. She has been a lovely ride so far. I am thinking of taking her accross the channel this year to do some touring in Europe and possibly a bit of camping. Looking forward to hearing from likeminds on the forums here. Bye for now
P.S. here is a picture of her. Can't wait for some better weather so I can take some more!
