I know, it's terrible. Need to get the decreased right in amongst it.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - fazersharp - 16-04-14

Another one here that has just got a new mot for another year


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Wade90 - 16-04-14

First proper ride since September last year (health issues, not cos I'm a fair weather boy!  :rolleyes) 1 hour and 45 non stop round some of my favourite roads trying out my new GoPro.

It's good to be back!  Big Grin


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 16-04-14

New rear rubber, and scrubbed in ready for the weekend  Big Grin

And another recommendation for Shell V-Power, by the mechanic/tuner, who said he'd run it on that all the time. So I will whenever convenient.

Sent scamera notice off  Sad

Ah, the A377, love it! :thumbup


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - mr self destruct - 17-04-14

Had a bit of a brown trouser moment on the way in to work this morning.
Came off the M6, slowed down to hear and feel a horrible rattling through the whole bike. Definitely speed rather than rev related so i thought "Shit. Front sprocket's going."
Nursed it into the works car park and found the spring holding the centre stand had come off, so the noise was the stand dragging on the road.


Thank blue fuck for that!  Big Grin


The spring was still there and undamaged, so I've got to see where it connects to on the stand and see if that's bust. But for now a couple of cable ties will get me home.




UPDATE: Had a look in the daylight and the lug for the spring has rusted off, so cable-tied it back in place and will get the welder out tonight.

You've just reminded me of that road I enjoyed so much many years ago. Lived in East Devon/then Exeter 1963-73-my formative 2-wheel years. We always had a problemwith the holiday traffic although cages were slower in those far-off days & easier to get past! :eek :lol :lol


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dave48 - 17-04-14

Forgot to say what I did with my Fazer yesterday.....Delivered Easter Eggs in top box to my 2 grand daughters & birthday card/present to my youngest son 31 today-makes me wonder where the year have flown!!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - CRH - 17-04-14

changed oil & filter, plus fitted 16tooth gearbox spocket, cleaned and lubed chain, took out for a run and what a diffrence that sprocket makes?..not screaming its tits off now!!...plus acceleration still great!! Wink ...should be better on fuel too?...


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - jonesthesteam - 17-04-14

Replaced my crappy eBay £24.99 cooler cover jobby with a nice new Renntec one, far better quality and fitted perfectly unlike my old one

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - esetest - 17-04-14

Couldn't wait,  so fitted new exhaust , had to drop some paperwork off the otherside of Bristol , so had a good excuse to try it out , nice throaty growl at tick over , sounds like a roar when you wind it up , lots of pops when you decelerate , really gives the bike some more character .

Yes it's quite bulky, I think the side pieces make it look worse, the mesh actually sits loose in the surround and let's air in around it, so far seems okay, hopefully as it's made by renntec they did some quality testing .
Went out today and did some traffic work and all seemed okay, but will certainly keep an eye on it, thanks

Fitted a repaired nose fairing to my son's 03 FZS 600, that I got from Deefer666 (top banana!)


Cheers Mark

Absolutely gutted out the chain and sprocket as it was minging! Before:

After:

Also gave it a mild oil, and turned the scotoiler up a touch...Just need to keep giving it a regular once over now Smile
