My first Fazer.. - tailgate - 21-03-13

Well it's FZ1S Gen2 whatever you want to call it (piss off!) Wink
After riding th whole lot of different bikes throughout the years (mostly sports - gixxer, busa, blade etc) the time has finally come (alongside missus growing belly) to open a new page on my biking. Sold my mint 10 Blade and bought this really neat fully faired Gen2 (the rest of the money went for the bloody stroller/carrycot).
Having to commute everyday in London... how the foc do you guys filter with these bloody mirrors? After blade it feels like one of those things they show on american chopper (no offense). I'd probably get used to the width quite fast.. 1 white van and 1 black cab so far got their mirrors trimmed.. doh

There were two hooks hanging from below... i took off the rack and sold it first thing as i don't plan to tour anymore (with the little bugger comin) and no need for it in town...
I'll check for the holes later today and let you know.

Nice looking bike, why did you sell the rack? you could have bungied the carry cot to it  :lol


Re: My first Fazer.. - Bracechenko - 23-03-13

When you said 'missus growing belly' I thought you were just saying that she's been drinking a few too many pints and larding up lol!  :lol The carry cot made me realise what you meant of course.

Lovely bike and welcome to the site :thumbup
