Tried extracting the swing arm roller bearings but failed.  Will take the rear shock off and clean that up instead.  Much easier. 


Hopefully will come up with a cunning plan to remove those pesky bearings this afternoon.

Direct heat is your only option they are dammm tight


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - noggythenog - 22-09-13

I then decided t take off front fender.....one side off fine....other side.....both bolts sheared off...fooooocccc!! :evil

Hey Noggy, it's "what did you do with your Fazer today", not "How did you try to destroy your Fazer today"  :lol

Everything I own is for sale.....at the right price.

To be honest, I have a Fazer that is now perfect for me, has had a lot done to it and have literally spent thousands on this bike, and I don't really want to do or spend much more on it.........

Mercury Exhaust
New Dunlop Roadsmart tyres
New Gold DID chain & sprocket
Ivans Jet Kit, dyno'd at 135bhp at the back wheel
Nitron Sport rear shock
Race Tech front fork springs
Wheels powder coated gloss black
Renthal bars and grips
Matching belly pan
Crash bobins
Rear Hugger incorporating chain guard
Chrome yolk, bar ends and radiator cover
Clear indicator covers
Major Service, the big one, valve clearance and new shims, new oil and air filter, new dual spark spark plugs, new battery, brakes and linkages serviced, exup valve serviced, carbs balanced, new oil & brake fluids & coolants

I have really enjoyed the experience getting it to look, run and handle this way and now seriously thinking about doing it all over again.

Don't fancy USD forks and an R6 rear shock?
I didn't do much modding on my first 3 thous, but I've got the bit between my teeth on this one!
I think a lot of that is due to now being a FOCcer, and making the contacts/getting the advice to get on with it - so thanks to all the other FOCcers for that  :thumbup
