Put a new front wheel on (from a big bang R1). My wheel had got damaged from a pot-hole and 'coming together' with a fiat in the Blackforest a few weeks ago and was no longer circular!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slappy - 22-04-15

Rode up to Settle,then Dent, down to Hawes for a bacon buttie then Settle again and back home to Leeds.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - devilsyam - 23-04-15

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - esetest - 23-04-15

Went for my first decent ride of the year today , rode to Bibury via Castle combe and Cirencester , stopped off for a coffee and a slice of lemon cake , rode back via Tetbury , Didmarten , Codrington and ring road , Sun was shining , roads had lots of grip , bike felt great , I hope Mike's knee holds out over the weekend , looking forward to getting it vanished after reading all the positive comments .

Not seen any decent ones yet, I had some cheap ones on my ZRX which were about 2" diameter, looking for similiar but better quality.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slappy - 23-04-15

Just seen some Oberon bar end mirrors, £35 each so £70 for a pair!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - pilninggas - 23-04-15

Dropped the bike, oops, going into work.

Came home ordered some bits; who turns up with replacement OE mirrors Devilsyam [luke] who lives 5 mins from me.

What an amazing FZ1 he is riding.....

top looking few issues ie brake lines to short lol but buck all done

i can defo confirm now that a gen 2 top yoke wont fit a 98/99 bottom even with a hammer

  Big thanks to ya luke,  got to recommend  luke to all, sorted the bike back and front with some chopping and changing , don't forget you set the brembo m/cylinder  up wires an all,    hope you didn't  hit traffic on the journey home, I'll post some more pics when I've  cleaned it and got a better mudguard

Another nick crisp Wales mini epic today  Big Grin

M5/M6 to North Wales, first stop, Flint castle:

Then on to Rhuddlan castle:

[Image: DSCF7056_zpsblbwwuiw.jpg]

Then down through Denbigh, Ruthin and on to Ponderosa at Horseshoe Pass (and this one's for Skippernick, just to show that my bike does still have a left-hand side  :rolleyes):

[Image: DSCF7105_zpse0tpcygo.jpg]

where the pick of the bunch was this beautiful Triton:

And then to Bala:

and some more of those fabulous Welsh mountain roads:

Build me a house here; I could sit and look at this view all day every day:

[Image: DSCF7121_zpscqfwgeqx.jpg]

And stopped to annoy slimwilly and scrounge a cuppa (in fact, I went out of my way to do this  :lol ) before heading back via Hereford, Ross (after a wild chicken chase in Hereford which was fruitless - got lost  :\ ).

A long day. Set out at just before 8am, got home 10:30pm. 429 miles covered. Gotta do it while the good weather is here though. And that's the new tyres fitted yesterday well and truly scrubbed in!  Big Grin
