Yeah, awesome picture!
Isn't the tax disc meant to be on the left side of the bike though?

But the tax disk is a new one on me (dont think thats right ) -- not, not on the right - but not right as in its not right that it has to be on the left. If I am right.
Re: Show me your fazer! - Andy FZS - 28-02-14
On the left in front of the rider. Unless things have changed.

Depends on how you look at it....from behind (snigger) its on the right........from the front its on the left.....who says its from behind or the front to determine whether its right or left
Re: Show me your fazer! - davidkent - 28-02-14
Is it not bad enough to have to display it at all, let alone being told where to display it - I always was under the impression that it was just 'displayed' and that would do.
Roll on October, no more tax disc.
Re: Show me your fazer! - Chris - 01-03-14
I'm sure it was so that if the bike was parked next to the pavement, facing in the direction of the flow of the flow of traffic, then the tax disc could be seen without standing in the road to look at it. Hence why it's in the passenger side of the windscreen on a car.
A quick google search throws up this:
http://www.nidirect.gov.uk/car-tax-rules
About quarter of the way down this page^^ in the display tax disc section it says that it should be on the left hand side/kerb side of the motorcycle.
Chris
P.S. Just to be clear, I couldn't care less where anyone wants to display their tax disc but it's good to know the facts. As you say, won't need to do it for much longer anyway!

It's not rocket science, disc displayed nearside, but I don't really think being offside will affect the ride performance but may confuse some thieving b'stard

Lovely looking black "Boxeye"!
Re: Show me your fazer! - Fazer Forever - 01-03-14
Mine just out of the garage after some work. Most recent mod is a Poly 26 fairing. I managed to break the other one by dropping a big piece of steel tube onto it when tidying the garage. I'd repaired it before so bit the bullet this time and actually shelled out some cash!. Other mods are Delkevic can and downpipes, Fazer 1000 rear caliper and mirrors, braided lines and wavy disc on back and Aeromax d/b screen.
Re: Show me your fazer! - bigalzete - 01-03-14
just fitted new down pipes, give it a service and a good clean
Re: Show me your fazer! - noggythenog - 01-03-14
Ooft!....bring on some nice weather.
un , i can see everybody is getti g geared up form some :faz Action......all bikes looki g very tasty om nom nom!Fazer forever...i never seen one of those fairings before, it is well smart, it has like the thou lowers built in which is different...for what it's worth & i realise it is personal opinion i reckon it'd look better with the grab rail back on.
But looookin gooood!!! 8)
Re: Show me your fazer! - Fazer Forever - 01-03-14
Rear rack on about five minutes after the pic was taken! I had literally just put it all back together. Fairing took a bit of fitting but I like it and it's a bit different. Going for the black/silver look for the bike, but can't decide whether to experiment with some chrome look vinyl highlights for the plastics, or a bit of a speedblock effort.

Re: Show me your fazer! - Lez72 - 01-03-14
They are all looking really nice folks. As Noggy says, it looks like there has been plenty of winter fettling and everyone is now chomping at the bit for some decent weather so we can all give them a nice airing 8) I know I am. I have withdrawal symptoms :\
