well all the problems where sorted before i sold it
then i rode it 80 miles to him and we noticed a slight oil drip soo.. the clutch rod seal needed changing i thought it was fine but clearly not.


also after i left he couldnt get it started -.- ive never had problems with it not starting lol, solenoid was just clicking but he wacked it and it was fine, he did try start it with the lights on though so i think he drained the battery a bit too much.

I love the sound of those Firestorms, with the right exhausts on they can sound bloody awesome.  :thumbup



Re: I bid you farewell... - noggythenog - 14-02-16

Congrats mate....has been painful at times seei g all the various problems youve had (some self inflicted of course) and the firestorm will be a nice even if thirsty ride.


Im sure there will always be a special place in your heart for fazers but for now on this special day of love treat your missus to a scrub & polish & spoil the new steed rotten & bombard it with treats. Smile

Re: I bid you farewell... - Paulfzs - 14-02-16

[For the people on other forums] -- this is a joke ya I'm the poor sod that's ended up with this bike.  After a massive fire at my home my MT03 and Derbi GPR Nude 125 were murdered, I bought this fazer.
First impressions are it's stupidly quick, I thought my bandit could get a wriggle on the fazer is on another level and less lardy.

As stated the fucker won't start so I've left it until the parts turn up.  Including solder and heat shrink

Re: I bid you farewell... - Paulfzs - 15-02-16

Nice big twin  Smile
Enjoy the vastly increased visits to petrol stations and change the camchain tensioners to decent manual ones immediately (unless it's been done already).
Seriously, the interweb is filled with such horror stories, put me right off them. 
Still, if you don't, you'll be back here again looking 'a cheap Fazer project'  :lol
