Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - fazed - 25-01-14


got Hagon rear shock and front suspension springs fitted a while back, then fitted braided brake lines.  Yestrday I fitted new pads and oil& air filter plus oil change and serviced according to Haynes manual.  All sorted ready for the annual pilgrimage to Le Mans in May.......Time for a beer!

Tried out my rentec rack and took the 88mile round trip Southampton Hampshire to Shaftesbury Dorset n back Collected some spares for work.    Ah lovely no rucksack lol. Safer too.  Shame is rained for a short while in Dorset.  Back home and quick sponge down and rinse as bike was caked lol.

Oh I also painted the front section of my garage this morn with some Ronseal slate grey floor paint.  looks great and by time I got home it was dry enough to walk on and park bike on it.  just the job.

Plenty of people here will warn you of Renntecs and topboxes! One guy (name evades me) was riding along, and found to his dismay one day that his topbox overtook him!


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Gav - 27-01-14

I'm not planning on overloading it.  ;-)


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dead Eye - 28-01-14

I think it was darrsi who had that experience...

Meanwhile, I'm still on the hunt to pick up a cheap Givi top box. No rush, so I'm biding my time until something comes along Smile

Had to ride to work around the SouthCircular through sh*te, wet, salted roads.. Washed it when I got home.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Lez72 - 29-01-14

Took the top fairing/headlight unit off the Gen 1 to give it a jolly good clean inside. Cleaned all the wiring and cleaned all contacts and reassembled. Stripped the front brake calipers, cleaned and reassembled with new bleed nipples  :rollin and mounting bolts. Fitted new 'Venhill' front brakeline kit that my better half bought me for Christmas. Just got to do my favourite bit now and bleed them up  :'(


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - griff86 - 29-01-14

Have just stripped my wheels and sent them off to Triple S for powdercoating. Two rear disc bolts snapped, they were drilled out and helicoiled.


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Jdalt - 30-01-14

I F*$@*in stood about 6 feet away whilst it fell over. :'( :'( :o :o


Cracked the Fairing and Scratched it in a couple of places.


Ouch !!


Still had a nice 60 mile ride around N Wales tho.

Braved the snow and headed up to CMC Chesterfield to get new chain and sprocket kit fitted.

Went for OEM as they were cheap enough on Ebay.

Feels lovely and smooth now. Got 30k out of originals so happy with that.
