Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - tommyardin - 19-06-16
Well its seems as if its up for grabs about the CARBATOOTER balancing, some do it every 4K some say not until about 25K, if it helps the bike run a bit smoother by ironing out any little vibs then I feel its worth doing as I do get a very slight buzz through the pegs, its not uncomfortable but noticeable after 80 miles or so, would be nice to lose that.
So what tuning Aids/Brands do you guys recommend and what prices would I expect to have to pay?
My Fazer had an upper cylinder service just before I purchased it (I'm assuming that included valve clearances as they do not rattle excessively)
I will have to dig out the paperwork to find out what that entailed.
reminds me of the story of the guy who took his Honda (Well it would not be a Yammy) to the garage because it was running rough and on collecting it after the repair the guy said to the mechanic what was wrong with it? He was told shit in the carbs, he replied 'does that really help and how often do I have to do it'

Washed and polished it to within an inch of its life. She cleans up well for an old girl
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - unfazed - 19-06-16
When are you going to wash the bike? :eek
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - esetest - 19-06-16
rode it , started raining , came home .
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Andy W - 19-06-16
Today was my second ride on my "new to me" Fazer 1000...
...just around the A-roads of Devon...I was feeling pretty good about it as well, until I saw Hedgetrimmer's photos..! :'( Ha ha!
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 19-06-16
Nice little blast around the lanes scrubbing in new T30's. Made friends with the local traffic cop and drooled over an MV Augusta. The thing is a work of art. Just look at the detailing on the wheels....Exquisite.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slappy - 19-06-16
That is a work of art, but imagine trying to clean it if you were daft enough to take it in the rain.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - joebloggs - 19-06-16
Great wheels but awful colour
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - nick crisp - 19-06-16
Looks like a tart's handbag :lol
Don't worry Andy W, I know the photos aren't that great, so I'll be heading back for more soon and will try to improve :photo
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - TOADY - 19-06-16
Not overly struck on that. I'd rather a husqvarna nuda or a ktm superduke. Plus ,Spoked wheels are an invention of the devil and only deserving of cafe racers and supermotos.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Skippernick - 19-06-16
you are all philistines, anyone who criticises that MV

Agrees with Toady
Not Stuck on the Gusta, I'm loathed to say it but it does look a bit tarty, especially in PINK. I bet its a bastard to keep that back wheel looking good with chain lube on the white rims.
would be more sense if it was belt drive but alas its chain.Maybe I'm just jealous cos i can't afford one, but then if I had that sort of money I would not be buying the Gusta,
I would spend many many many thousands less and buy a pristine 1000 Gen 1
I just love the 80's/90's Star War looks of the FZS.That why my baby FZS Foxeye will be with me to the end (Hope that is not prophetic in any way).Imagine being buried sat on your Fazer skid lid and leathers in place not forgetting your glove as you don't want your fingers getting cold, maybe that's a step to far.

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - NorthWestern - 20-06-16
I wouldn't mind but I set off home in the now heavier rain. 45 mins later I get back, bike in garage and by the time I get changed its blue skies
