That makes two of us :lol
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - noggythenog - 07-05-14
Seriously chaps...some of the roads i think are just a means to an end are probably some other folks wet dream...i really am spoiled......although i will say this...lots of them are small ie narrow & winding & flicky....& pretty foccin dangerous. :evil .....im talking 3rd gear max...maybe 4th until you get cought with too much pace & wish you had more engine braking.
Given the choice i reckon i prob prefer the mid wales more flowing & larger twisties.......but the last few days have given me good practice at slower speeds & the scenery is shit hot.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dave48 - 08-05-14
Rode to shop to in nice? showers to get MOT test done. Sailed through-good old Rhondda Red! :lol
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - apage16 - 08-05-14
Completed the oh-so-wrong-feeling DOWNGRADE to standard headlights! :'(
Double headlight mod completed, of course.
Also switched to the summer fairing and fitted my new/old retro style bar mounted mirrors. (€10 the pair! With E-mark!)
[smg id=1919]
Already ordered a secondary light unit to make sure I can still see in the gloom!
Yet to make some panels to cover the front corners of the frame (rectifier, horn area) and yet to figure out what to do about indicators. But already pretty happy with the more streetfightery look.
NOGGY! Don't trade yours in, we make a good team!!!

Got my bike back from it's 40k mile service today, major service plus two new tyres so I'm £500 lighter. Ouch.
Plus I'm scrubbing them in in the pissing rain. :rolleyes
Been riding a courtesy XJ6 the past two days, thoroughly uninspiring bike.

260 miles following the route of tour de France from York to Skipton aysgarth hawes over buttertubs pass to reeth leyburn and Ripon then home to Yorkshire coast.
I went to Aysgarth falls once, it was beautiful.

Aysgarth Falls was where Robin Hood (with Kevin Costner) was filmed fighting in the waterfall...lovely spot.

My Dad was the Swordmaster on that there film.

Changed rear pads cleaned piston and bled/changed fluid
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Wade90 - 09-05-14
My 3rd MOT with this bike, and the 3rd time it's passed first time without any advisory notes!
I love this bike!
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - mickvp - 09-05-14
removed the standard can, and fitted my carbon and titanium scorpion one. Then I took the baffle out and flung it under the seat :lol
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Super_Monkey - 09-05-14
pulled forks off, cleaned the lowers and removed a good few years of road grime and put a nice couple of coats of matt black.

Very nice Mick 8) , that looks as cool as an Akra imo...no doubt for a fraction of the cost.
Makes such a difference to the look of the bike.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - mickvp - 09-05-14
cheers Noggy, I like it (wouldnt have minded an Akrapovic either, but wanted something a little different)
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - ogri48 - 09-05-14
What did I do with my fazer today? Fell in love with it all over again. Even in the wind and wet that bike is just so much fun and then some..
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - midden - 10-05-14
MoT passed, advised rear tyre near to limit and front the tread is 'saw blading'
So will need new for July

Same as my one Mick, 'cept mine's all carbon. The titanium one suits yours well though. :thumbup

Took wife's Fazer 1000 into a mates garage for it's MOT (she broke 2 toes last week) got picked up my son and then took in my RSV - both still have a couple of weeks left so have them there to fit in as he's got time.
Cleaned son's Fox-eye 600 and now settling down with a Belgian Cherry Beer.

Howd she break her toes then?.....biking or just being a woman?.
Plus that cherry beer...is it the stuff in the wrapping paper...that is well nice....this stuff.
