Ripped everything back off and sourced some shorter Bandit risers, just waiting for them to arrive so I can enjoy the sunshine

No, I was too busy hating it to take pics.
I should have but I just wanted the monstrous original risers off :rolleyes

Surprisingly my local Yamaha dealer only charges 60p for a crush washer(sump plug type)

£1:13 at my yam dealer. Reading manual it implies renewal isn't necessarily needed

It might not be, but given it's the first time I've done my own oil and filter change a couple of quid extra for peace of mind was worth it.
Anyway, I rode it to Bristol and back over Friday and Saturday and it ran fine, so I'm happy
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - NorthWestern - 30-03-14
Washed it, a weeks worth (and the rest) of winter commute coloured my drive!
Finished these bad boys

Got an Akrapovic + titanium linkpipe on the way to replace my bashed dusbin stock silencer.
Should start looking decent soon

This idea has 2 benefits
1. easier on your shocks
2.easier on my eyes (since I'm always chasing)

Got out 9am rode to Worcester with mate on his CG 125-spent some time there & rode to Stourport then Bewdley-where we met a nice old fellow with a 65 Triumph Thunderbird. Rode up west side of Severn Valley to Bridgnorth. Saw the steam trains, crossed the river & dropped into the bikers café at Quatford on the Kidderminster road. Met a fellow foccer with a 51 plate yellow(SLOW?)Foxeye. Admired the eye candy(Bikes & biker babes) had some food then dropped back down the A458 to Kinver Edge/Stourbridge/Black Country& home. Ended up resetting his contact breaker points on the Honda as they had closed up reducing his "power" on the hills. A good day out! :lol

Took my late daughter in laws sister who is with us for her first anniversary to visit the birth place of Henry Fords Grand Father " Any colour you like as long as its black" and then to see the famous Drombeg stone circle which is dated around 1000BC and the still intact Fulacht Fiadh (Cooking Pit)
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - midden - 01-04-14
This is a tale of not what I did with my Fazer but what I did in the name of 'our' Fazer
Coming out from Aldi having purchased a paddock stand (not sure of full value given the centre stand) I spied acroos the car park a man about to get on his clean red boxeye. I walked over to him and ask if he was a foccer.
Ok I lied, I asked him if he was a member of the fazer owner club. I told him it was an online forum full of interesting information and people and that we go out on rides alot together.
He seemed interested as his raced off in to the sunset shouting 'OI NUTTA'
So who knows may be we will have another nice member in the near future
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - bigbluebear - 01-04-14
Got it MOT'd....no problems.....flew straight through
