Gave it an oil change, for about the thirtieth time. :rolleyes
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dave48 - 03-05-14
Went for a ride out in the Spring sunshine. Stopped by a boating marina for a couple of pics.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dave48 - 03-05-14
Forgot to upload Mr fazer!

Replaced the battery and adjusted the chain.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - lew600fazer - 03-05-14
Rode the one on the left down from Scotland last week to the Costa Blanca were I live, the one on the right took her for a spin just to charge the battery up a bit as has not run for two weeks.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - stevierst - 03-05-14
Finally 'finished off' my rear maxxis diamond after chasing my bro-in-law around Windermere. It's now bald as ya dad.

It started out like this 3k ago.

Awesome tyres, easily as good as any other s/t tyre I've used over the years, and I'm not kind to my tyres!
Haters carry on hating at your own expense!
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 03-05-14
No hating here stevie - but they do look weird!
Slimwilly might come along in a mo and show you what a PROPERLY bald tyre looks like though :eek
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - stevierst - 03-05-14
Put it this way, there's 1mm or less all round! Lucky I got home without being stopped by yoonohoo :o
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - ChristoT - 03-05-14
To be fair, It's the Supermaxx I hate! Not tried the Diamonds...

Some of it is due to previous ownership but the rest is my OCD-keeping the bike shiny/self maintained is my reward to the bike lfor the pleasure I get riding the little red beast! :lol

I keep up with my bro-in-law whose on Pirelli angel gt's riding a tweaked mille, and boy, can he ride!
Everyone who's ridden my bike have said the tyres feel unstickable! A bit of an odd feel at first with the strange profile, but it helps when you throw it over in a bend
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - red98 - 05-05-14
another nice day.....after yesterdays ride with the lofo`s on my 600 boxeye,its reminded me just how good these bikes are
.....so iam off out again...only to machinemart in twickenham to get some gas for the welder...which i could get 1 mile down the road at halfords.....but swmbo dos`nt know that 
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - noggythenog - 05-05-14
I did a quick 50 miler yesterday on noggyfighter........it was great! & i felt on good form.......the front end is far too light though & under full throttle i really need to lie on the tank because the front lifts every time theres a small bump.
At the end & approaching my village i got stuck behind a car....no big deal.....just about to turn a small corner straight into the 30 limit, police are often there & theres one o those digital speed i dicators....so i hung back......& Harrrrrrumph!!!!........a BMW1000r & some other mega bike fly past us......& i became deflated & thought hmm maybe i coulda just go passed.
Then i read the threads about staying safe & i think it is these type o guys that ending up embedded in cars or becoming street furniture.
Not sure where to go today, might just keep it local & do a little tour of pembrokeshire.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Grahamm - 05-05-14
I was too knackered to post this yesterday...
My local IAM Group is running a monthly Scatter Rally, this month's challenge is to find military memorials to a specific regiment, squadron, batallion, unit etc (not just the generic "Lest we forget" type). So I went via Fovant to Lyneham to Kemble and then Hullavington and hopefully got pics which will suffice.
Then went to Bristol to visit my mother in hospital and finally rode back to Portsmouth, having racked up about 300 miles!

Met Unfazed & his wife who were passing by, he got to see noggy towers & the fazers....always good to meet another foccer. 8)
Put the sem-a in the shed & the noggyfighter is relegated to outdoors....poor noggyfighter :'( [size=78%]...couldnt be so harsh so went to halfords & got her an oxford cover.[/size]
And likewise, always good to meet another Foccer. A shame we could not take up the offer of Tea from his good lady wife.
We were heading to Abergavenny via the A40,
unfortunately by Car, :'( but we met many bikers who were on the boat heading to Bristol and down to Lands End and they were also on the A40 for the same reason I was. :lol Pull out of the way to let them overtake and watch the flowing lines and secretly wishing I was with them. :'( Had to welcome the seeing the light of Noggythenog and buying the fast colour. :lol
We had a good fazer chat, and he certainly appears to have got good value for money. Lovely sound off that akrapovic
Noggy best of luck with that fantastic sounding machine and we will call again next time on the bike. :thumbup

A short ride to Colwyn Bay and back from Wrexham, via Ruthin, Denbigh, St Asaph, 94 miles. I went to have a look where the petrol stations are in Colwyn Bay as I'm doing a Bike Safe course on Friday at N. Wales Police H,Q. and need to have a full tank for the afternoons ride. I managed to fit in a teacake and coffee on the prom at Rhos on Sea. Just washed and dried the bike and put it away, as rain is a possibility this afternoon.
