Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - mr self destruct - 13-05-18
Got pissed off with too many dickheads on the M6 where they’re fitting cameras, so I’m halfway through fitting a camera.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Hugh Mungus - 13-05-18
537 miles on the Fazer today and don't I know it - aches and pains - not done that sort of mileage in one day for a long time.
Went from home (near Kings Lynn) to Chester to meet up with the FJ/FJR Owners Club for a ride out in North Wales. Rode down some great roads until lunch time where we stopped at the Lakeside Cafe on the outskirts of Blaenau-Ffestiniog and then we rode back to Chester via some more great roads (don't ask which roads as I haven't a clue) then back home.
I rode over the Cat and Fiddle on the way to Chester and it was ok going up but on the downhill section heading towards Macclesfield the road has been resurfaced with loose chippings, quite deep in places, so I didn't return via that route.

Billy_Balthorpe - Don't keep us in suspense :lol, so what's the deal with the "minor modifications" ??
Perhaps somewhere to rest your feet (legs forward). Or something to do with maintenance? Look like you've screwed set screws in.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Billy Balthorpe - 14-05-18
Well, we've got the big ride to Premery in France, 600 miles in a day, in July. Previous years we have done it in two bites with a hotel and an almighty piss up, but this year its going to be a single blast. To try to get some blood flowing around the arse area i tried putting my feet on the crash bungs, but because they are plastic my boots tended to slip off, so you sort of have to hold you feet on the bungs with the muscles on the inside of your thighs, which hurts after a bit.
So, when i was sorting out my Stainless nuts and bolt the other night (the things you find to do when the wife puts X Factor on the TV) i found some nice little M6 Grub screws, and thought "They'll do!".
So after drilling and tapping and not going completely through with the tap, i screwed the grub screws in and they tightened on the partially cut thread at the bottom of the hole, so they cant rattle loose and fall out. I took the bike out the other day and it works perfectly, my feet now stay on the bungs with no effort at all. It was a lot more simple than what i had planned, which was bits of ally with upward curved ends, screwed to the top of the bungs and sticking out a bit. Sounded like a recipe for bleeding shins to me.
I'm really pleased with the job, only took 10 minutes too. My mate will want his doing when he see these, hes got my old Fazer.

Cruiser pegs on a Fazer. What's the world coming to. :lol
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Billy Balthorpe - 14-05-18
Hardly cruiser/highway pegs per se. Just 4 M6 grub screws turning something that is made to one job into something that does two.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - tommyardin - 15-05-18
Hey I want some of them Bad Boys, are they available for the FZS 600 frame down-tube engine mount?
if so any links?
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - iamthearrison - 16-05-18
Took mine in this morning for new front wheel bearings, 48 quid fitted. Just had a phone
call, looks like the garage that fitted my front tyre has overtightened the caliper bolts and fucked the threads up, another 60 quid to fix it. :wall
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Anquetil - 17-05-18
Just dropped it off for an MOT test. Waiting for a phone call this afternoon to go and collect it , as long as everything is good.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Anquetil - 17-05-18
Just picked it up. Passed with no problems.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - fatbloke62 - 17-05-18
I had an 03 model identical to yours some years ago ,looking back I wish I'd have kept it ,it was mint with very low mileage
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Anquetil - 17-05-18
Yes, I was very lucky to find this fairly locally. It only has 9000 miles on the clock, is an 03 model, and I love riding it, possibly even more than the 1000. Given my advancing years, and all the manoeuvering that I have to do to get it around the side of the house, if I had to get rid of one it would be bye bye 1000.
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Grahamm - 18-05-18
I had to go from Portsmouth to Bournemouth today for business. On the way down, there were signs on the M27 warning of delays on the A31, cue lots of filtering until I got to the point at which someone had managed to turn a caravan over!
After the business event, since I had plenty of time, I decided to go home by the more interesting route and went via the A338 to Salisbury, A30 to Stockbridge, B3049 to Winchester, A272 to Loomies, then down the A32 before turning off onto the B2150 at Droxford and then picking up the road through to World's End and the B2177.
Longer, but much more fun :thumbup
Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - dazza - 19-05-18
Bought the Fazer thou out of slumber and reminded myself just how quick these things are.
Came across a dismembered deer in a pool of blood.
Obviously been hit at speed by something.
Certainly makes you think.
