Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Kosmic Kartman - 24-04-14

Fitted some Galfer wavey discs on the front end.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - bigbluebear - 24-04-14

Did over 100 miles in the glorious Scottish sunshine today.....brilliant!!!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - esetest - 24-04-14

Used the bike as the sun was shining and  I had to drop some paperwork off at Olveston and Horfield and do some fault finding at Lockleaze .


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Yamazer-92 - 24-04-14

MOT'd it, no advisories!  Big Grin  Rode it properly for the first time in a month after work, clutch that I had fiddled with felt fine but still rattling a bit so will get the carb tune out soon. Today was also the first proper test of my motad downpipes, I noticed no difference whatsoever in performance but it felt great to hear ALL of the exhaust actually coming out of the exhaust can and they look loads better so I am very happy with them!

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - ChristoT - 24-04-14

Got the airbox back in after my whoopsie with the help of a rubber mallet.  Wink Thanks for the advice, Tony! Rain stopped play, but hopefully I'll have it all back in on Saturday. Looks like I'll be cleaning the carbs this weekend too, hopefully!  Smile


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Lez72 - 25-04-14

Fitted a new clutch cable to the boxeye. Genuine Yamaha of course  Wink


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Frosties - 26-04-14

Realised the MOT had run out in February, crapped it, phoned round and it went straight through - result!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Super_Monkey - 26-04-14

pulled off the front and rear peg hangers, frame cover, disassembled for powdercoating, knocked out the bushes (found out they where a tenner each from Yamahahahaha see seperate post), replacing all shitty oxidised fasteners for stainless, got new bars, levers, R6 shockm barided lines and other goodies to fit if weather holds this week?

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - unfazed - 26-04-14

Rubber mallet, best device before resorting to a lump hammer for getting square pegs into round holes  :lol


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - red imp - 26-04-14

Left it in the garage because it was peeing down with rain when I left for work  :'( 


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Super_Monkey - 26-04-14

well Renthals drilled and fitted, and the R6 shock done too, all bolts on the wire wheel and come up well, great threads, bearings re-greased and some copper slip on a few things, either this bike has never been introduced to copper or lithium grease or the previous owners didn't give a fudge!! Way too many seized bolts for my liking!!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - red98 - 26-04-14

De-siezed the rear caliper and replaced the brake fluid, repainted the steel downpipes and refitted in place of the stainless set so I can polish another day......all this on the 600 whilst the mighty thou sat there looking very dirty  :\

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Mark YPVS - 26-04-14

Properly around £3k , not sure as its a genuine N1 with matching numbers but its NOT a show bike.
