Oh God, they really are multiplying!! Someone alert the authorities, this could be an epidemic! :eek
Welcome to the site, enjoy, but don't bother trying to sell that towbar - don't think you'll get many takers...
PS It is standard procedure to put a pic of the new wheels here and in Show Me Your Fazer in the 600s section so everyone can ooooh! and aaaaah! over it

Let me guess...
Gold Fazer, belonged to a chap called Dale by any chance?
Anyone else want a towbar? Going cheap to a Foccer!

Yes that's the one. a cracking lad, very friendly and helpful. ill pop a few pics up, the tow bar/trailer wasn't the reason for purchase, I will try it out over the next week or so. its attached by 4 bolts so easy to remove?store for when needed.
im not sure these are the best bikes for towing though :eek

Yep, like mine, bolt on/bolt off.
As for good for towing, don't tell them that until you've tried it (it's pretty good)! I have a towbar to sell, damn it! :lol
The trickiest part is slowing speed, when you lean the bike most. Be careful there, as the bike may want to lean more than the hitch will allow! :eek On fast A roads and motorways, it sits beautifully. 8)
