The Burnham bends have been rather busy since the sun came out. Smile

Bought pair of 2nd hand mirrors for £25 to replace the one that popped its pivot yesterday before my run to the Ace Cafe, got two fairing infills from the same chap with intact brackets and no splits, for an extra £25, result.

Why, do you get much traffic through your bedroom/project work centre?
Coz they sure won't be seeing them on any PICS  Wink

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - stevierst - 25-03-14

Removed the disused exup cables, and got my heated grips working just as the weather gets better [yay]


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Grahamm - 25-03-14

Changed the air filter Smile

Ok, that may be "big whoop!" from some of you, but it's the first real "get the top off and do something" I've actually done on the bike instead of taking it to a stealer.

I was going to do an oil and filter change too, but whilst looking at the details online and in the Haynes Book I realised I might need a new sealing washer for the plug and I didn't have one, so can someone please let me know what I'll need and where I can get one?

Nice one graham




If i can do it then so can anyone.....not sure about the washer....they are called crush washers....quite thick but lighweight & of course crush up on tightening to give a good seal...i should think a decent hardware shop, a locally tylpe one should have them or of course a stealer can charge a fortune.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - thunderpantz - 25-03-14

Did a test fit of a replacement end can (Dan Moto Carbon GP) is a little bit 'loud'. Ordered a baffle while i figure out a mounting solution Smile

I've reused mine 3 times now. You watch that will jinx it now. :lol


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dead Eye - 25-03-14

Yeah, I'm pretty good at conveniently "forgetting" to buy replacement crush washers. Be this for the sump plug, banjo bolts on brake lines, or just about any other bolt I undo... so far no issues... but most of them haven't been in an atrocious state. The worst I've noted came from my sisters brake calipers on her car but they appear to be holding still...

Edit: I am in no way suggesting you shouldn't replace them  :lol


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Looney tune - 25-03-14

Took it out for it's first spin of 2014  :woot


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nsr500v4 - 25-03-14

Got it serviced, MOT'd, new brake lines for the annual trip to the TT.......not long now!

Just found one on eBay for £1.69 plus £1.10 P&P, so ordered it :thumbup
