Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 29-10-14
One to cheer you up Nick.
Have to be careful I don't get the whole thread thrown in to the naughty corner. :lol
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slimwilly - 29-10-14
Oh hel, and such a pretty yellow bike :'(
All wasps hibernate for the winter 8)
Get fixed soon buddy

Might well take you up on that Paul :thumbup
Will phone recovery place today and see if they'll bring it home and if so, how much :eek
Can't leave it there for long, as I'm sure their storage costs will be extortionate.
So, decided to go H's café for the last bike night of the year on Monday. Kept telling myself to take it easy, as I haven't ridden in the dark for a while. Came to a bend after a stretch of NSL, but was picturing in my mind a different corner for some reason - never ridden this road at night before. So I had scrubbed some speed (wasn't going very fast anyway), but by the time I realised my mistake, it was too late, as the bend fk'd off sharply to the left. Tried to scrub as much speed as possible, but like a numpty, locked the back, bike skidded, and down we went. Landed full weight on my left side (again! :'( ). Corner was unlit, although there was a little light from a side road - alas, not enough!
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 29-10-14
Ouch! Police-arranged recovery £150 inc., storage x1 day £10 inc., delivery to home £95 + vat. Oh well, all done, it's coming home today.
Cheers for the offer anyway Paul.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 29-10-14
Bike is home
Damage:

which means bent fairing frame, but not badly.

Got the missing piece - a clean break.
Bungs certainly did their job:

Couple of small scrapes on fuel tank; not even dented
![[Image: DSCF6291_zpsa1dad8b7.jpg]](http://s1291.photobucket.com/user/nicknicklxs/media/DSCF6291_zpsa1dad8b7.jpg.html)
All on LHS, nothing at all on right, bars not even bent, mirror very slight scrape, and that's it. Rideable as is, but tax due now so will SORN it for a month or two.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - ChristoT - 29-10-14
Ouch! You have my every sympathy! At least the damage is light.
Next step - phone Deefer, and get those fairings up to him for fixin'!!
Oh and get well soon too, or whatever.

Thanks mate.
Might just straighten the fairing frame and ride as is for a few months. Might have plans for it next year
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - fireblake - 29-10-14

They make all the other plastics too?
Mickey
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 29-10-14
I think all the bodywork is repairable Mickey, so will probably eventually go down that route.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - fireblake - 29-10-14
Glad to hear it mate.
Mickey
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - fireblake - 29-10-14
I serviced me old EXUP valve today, eventually. In between the down pours. Only the valve though, the cables can wait for a while as I flooded the cables last year so I know they can wait some.
Mickey
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - helloindustries - 31-10-14
Today i attempted to adjust left switch position only to find the screws keep rounding. I'll need to fix that.
Also discovered my clutch cable is badly frayed. Waiting on a replacement.
Also also discovered the braided line on the left front calliper has sprung a leak of ... indeterminate enthusiasm, so i cleaned it up and will be keeping an eye on it. Bolt seemed tight, just hoping it won't require a new line.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slappy - 31-10-14
Took advantage of the mild weather and went for a bimble round the Yorshire moors. Took some piccies on the way back but cannot upload them as my laptop has decided not to recognise my phone anymore.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dakipro - 01-11-14
I rode for 2 hours in city traffic, although it doesn't matter as long as I am on the bike
And did something creative

5 out of 10.
Find a larger pumpkin, hollow, cut visor hole, fit actual visor, wear as helmet for a photo. Then you may claim the remaining 5 points*
*depending on quality of pumpkin helmet.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Doddsie - 01-11-14
....Couldnt find a pumpkin!!
