Just got my 04 Fazer1000 back from Portugal. Rear wheel bearings collapsed 160 miles north of Faro. Thank god for insurance. RAC provided hire car when it became clear that the parts could take some time to arrive. So Moto Clube de Faro Rally was done in a Fiat Punto. Headed back to Estremoz after the rally to pick up the bike only to be told it had taken them a week to obtain the wrong part. Flown home by RAC and bike was repatriated earlier this week. New bearings, spacers and dust seals fitted and its good to go. Still a fantastic bike though.
