Bike improvements - fazersteve - 05-02-12
Hi all,
Bought my 2000 Fazer 600 over two years ago after passing my test.I really enjoy riding the bike but there are two areas I would like to improve.
1-Seat, get numb bum after 30 miles or so.
Have seen a ad in Ebay offering replacement seat with new foam and cover with red piping and logos for 108 all in and leaving me my orignal seat to sell myself.
2-Handle bars, Get quite stiff riding bike and would like bars to be a wee bit lower.
Would like advise from users, to the best way to fix these two problems.
Thanks to all who reply.
Steve

Hi,You won't get breaker prices for your old seat.As you are mainland there sould be specialists who can open up youre seat and place a gel pad inside,then replace the cover.I would think if may be slightly cheaper and you would have guaranteed comfort.i would have a crack at it myself if i were you as you may only get £20 for you're seat.Phone a few pro's and get a few prices first as the replacement may not be as comfortable as advertised.As far as bars go - I've just bought a set of Renthal lows 754 s.According to someone who has used them they will fit okay.
