None to show here, was too busy riding :lol
300 miles, West Midlands to Llangollen to see the aqueduct there, then on through to Dolgellau and back round to Welshpool, Shrewsbury, Kidderminster then home.
Great weather and my first ride on the Fazer Thou; very pleased with her, should have bought one years ago.
Well, I do try to incorporate a couple of roads that are purely for the riding, not the scenery, each time I go out. But obviously I don't stop on those ones
On these gnarly mountain routes, you can't give it any welly - too narrow, gravelly, generally dodgy, so you're going slow; so it's no hardship to stop for snaps quite often. But in Wales...ooooh yeah, cracking riding roads. Didn't stop so much myself when I rode a lot there :evil

I do confess I didnt go all the way and make it look perfect by changing it to a proper black one

You seem to have edited out 400cc and made it much slower silver :lol
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - tommyardin - 26-03-17
[color=rgb(255, 0, 0)]WHAT! [/color][size=1em]Didn't even know they made a 400, just looked it up and surprise surprise they did. [/size]
[size=1em]I did a caliper clean today on my FZS 25cc today :lol I followed one of 'Del Boys Garage' videos that someone posted in another tread on here, I also found this video from the same guy, where he mentions that the bobbins on the front disks are meant to be able to rotate as it's a semi floating disk, mine certainly do not rotate so are they meant to rotate on the Fazer FZS 600?[/size]
[size=1em]Link to the video. [/size]
[size=1em]! No longer available[/size]

Well, definitely didn't stop for photos today. In company with a well-handled Ducati 1299, it was all I could do to keep him in sight! I think the ol' Fazer gave a good account of itself though, and got rid of those chicken strips nicely

Took the fairing off my Gen1 1000 and fibreglassed up the damage done by Storm Doris, its done but not pretty, but then again it is a work-a-day bike, for when the weathers not good, long trips or for when I just want to go fast. Going to re fit it next weekend.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Graham53 - 27-03-17
Changed oil and filters on both bikes after finally sorting the clutch basket on the 600 , 1000 being a pain in the arse again, I'm really starting to hate that bike or it hates me, then took the 600 to Protyre in Enfield for new boots, top service from the fitter there , proper cleaned all the wheels after fitting the tyres and cleaned up lube gunk off the sprocket and he was a nice bloke ?? ???? Then went on a 100 mile ride to bed in the tyres, home, maldon, Southend, London , back home WITH A BIG GRIN ON MY FACE
I'd forgotten how much fun the 600 was its been about 10 months since I last threw a leg over her, although suffering now with aching joints but well worth it, then looked at the 1000 and wished I'd never bought it :'(
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - MMCMME - 01-04-17
MOTd this morning, no advisories at all
Realised I have only put 1800 miles on her since the last MOT though! :o

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - NorthWestern - 02-04-17
Made some front wheel spacers after seeing grooves worn in the old ones from the bearing seals... popped new bearings and seals on for good measure.

Not Today but last Sunday went to Hartland Quay Hill Climb:-
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Anquetil - 04-04-17
Fitted a new choke cable and lubricated the choke linkage bar.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - slappy - 04-04-17
Went for blast with a few soon to be ex workmates, called in at Squires on way back, place was full of Japanese cars for some meet, plus a ruddy dj playing some really shit music.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - GH600 - 05-04-17
Took it for an MOT & it went through no probs
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - tommyardin - 05-04-17
Top Yoke was looking a bit tatty where keys have scuffed an arc into the paint finish, so removed yoke and sanded it down a good coat of etching primmer, two under coats, 3 colour base coats and two good clear lacquer coats. It was black but now it metallic silver, I painted the handle bar posts at the same time but kept the clamps black.
Also removed other two keys from the ignition key so should not happen again.
