A brilliant little ride today, in sunshine with DRY ROADS!!


Swindon -Avebury-Marlborough-Pewsey-Upavon-Marlborough-Swindon-Witney-home. About 120 miles, very little traffic. That bit from Upavon to the A338 was particularly fun, and I had it all to myself  Big Grin
Maxxed it out today (well, almost) too, on a private runway that looked surprisingly like a public road I often use  :b


Happy; very, very happy  Smile

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - unfazed - 20-12-14

Leg fine again then??? Smile

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 20-12-14

Aye, much better now.
Still a bit weak muscularly, a little funny in the knee joint, and had to stretch it more than usual, but, getting there nicely  Smile

Great to hear your back out on two wheels comfortably again Nick Smile

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slimwilly - 20-12-14

nice to read Nick...oh AND DID ANY WHITE VANS TAKE YOUR PICCIE ON THE RUNWAY? :lol :lol

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - highlander - 20-12-14

The headlamp bulb holder was loose in the lamp so I removed the fairing, etc & it ended up looking like this.
Does anyone else have a bike that looks similar? Now the fairing is off, I think I'll paint the clocks mounting before refitting it all. Where does it stop?

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - highlander - 20-12-14

The wife said to me "why are you doing all this now, you're not going to be able to ride it until the spring at least. "
I'm starting to do all the little jobs now so that it WILL be ready for the spring. Daft woman. Surely there can't be others.

Cheers Liam. Was sorry to read about your little spill, but at least you got away without injury. Someone said a short while back it's the time of the thous now. Looks like they were right  :\

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Exupnut - 20-12-14

Pure bollox.... It's ALWAYS the time of not thinking

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dead Eye - 20-12-14

Only a little spill, I'm over it and the bike suffered only minor cosmetic damage to inexpensive parts Smile

All of my fun has been with my cars if you haven't seen the "What did you do with whatever else" thread Tongue

What am I looking at and how?

The thread on the nut has literally stripped off. Could be a number of reasons, over tightened.cross threaded or just worn out due to the number of times it has been fastened/unfastened.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Rexr - 23-12-14

Ordered lots of stainless bolts and a titanium axel nut and a few other bits n bobs after crimbo will be a few more bits n bobs...... Smile decided to keep it for another yr..... Smile

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Nebuchernezzer - 23-12-14

what he said, alot of it must have stripped a while ago as the broken thread wrapped around the axle was quite a dark colour, the last bit of it stripped off when i went to tighten it up and it was shiny where the new break was.
I was at work too when i looked at that (easier to do some minor stuff like setting the chain line out in the sunny carpark rather than in my dark shed i though.....bugger!)

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - NorthWestern - 23-12-14

Popped into town on it, traffic was manic, would not have wanted to be in a car.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Sandscorcher - 24-12-14

Took the poor Girls heart out,
So much of the paint on the eng had been touched ,but now flaking off & 4 of the header studs need drilled out (yes probably gunna end up slapping Helicoils in though)
