Finally got round to washing it ^^

Got the car washed yesterday as well so both vehicles are all nice and sparkly outside


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - savvy - 19-04-14

Some pics of fazer 400 headlights on my 600 easy fitting just had to drill hole for sidelight as shown. 2 H4 bulbs so 2 dip and 2 full beam. They look standard as well.

I've crashed my Fazer yesterday, still waiting for details of garage where it was taken.
I am not too bad, but bike was most likely totalled Sad
Glad you are not to badly injured, what happened?
[/quote]
I was overtaking 3 cars on Bradford Rd
https://goo.gl/maps/HDXqe
[size=78%]then the middle car the silver Mercedes AMG started to overtake when I was already on his level. I've hit him in right back/side and dont remember clearly. woke up in ambulance. got some nasty wounds, sleft side stomach and left arm. can't move arm, but it's not broken.[/size]
I've found the ref number from police and sent it to insurance company.
I feel dizzy and not so great, but will be alright in a few weeks.
Thanks.

Take care, looks like your going to have some amount of bruising.
Get better soon, you don't want to be missing to much of the fine weather.

Fitted and ultra lows. First time fitting bars and quite pleased at how easy it was.

We went for a wander with the Fazer 1000 round the south coast of Cork. Took a picture of Killbrittan Castle on the way back

Paul, that's a huge change in power at 5000rpm. :eek
If I'm reading it right, it is as a result of making the mixture richer... and I thought you already had the pilot screws miles further out than normal!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - red98 - 21-04-14

Yes a big change FAZERIDER.the pilot screws were set at 5 complete turns when I first started fiddling.set them to three turns and the dyno boys gave it a bit more...strange thing is I did'nt notice it on test ride, bit limited to private car parks as have no tax hence the dyno......they fitted a new set of plugs aswell, gave me the old ones back as not that old, best with new ones for the dyno.......so, all good to go now, still dont know what the original problem was, regulator or the pickup sensor maybe, or parhaps a little wear here and there......still, its had a good check over and one hell of a service, ready for another 40,000 miles  :lol
