Hi Everyone!

Just had a very interesting conversation on the phone with David at sfs performance. He has recieved the box of hoses (thanks again dead eye) and will be in touch soon with a price for us so keep an eye on this thread over the next day or two. He said that they would only be able to replicate the 9 rubber hoses and not the metal parts too.

Please see update below! 

Cheers

Chris

Sounds promising! What colours are available? Do they have a site to see the colours on other kits?

[size=2em]*UPDATE*[/size]

Hey everyone,

This guy at sfs is a machine! haha. Anyway,

The kits will cost £100 each plus an £8 carriage cost to UK addresses (of which deadeye and his dudeness are not being charged) This is for the full 9 hose kit.

He is giving us a discount as it is a group buy so if you want a kit now is the time to say! He is also not charging us for any colour options, which would usually add to the price.

It will take four weeks to get the tooling made to make the kits which is as fast as they can do it, so we're looking at recieving the kits soon after that. He needs me to confirm with him that there are at least ten of us before they make the tooling so please PM me to confirm you are going to buy a kit, the colour of the kit you want and your address so that I can pass this info onto him AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

There will be a tooling cost but i'm happy to pay for that provided it's not too much and If I can't afford it on my own then i'll only be asking for donations towards it so the price above will be all you have to pay. He would prefer a one off payment so we'll have to sort that amoungst ourselves instead of paying individually. I assume everyone can use paypal and i'd be happy to get people to pay me and then i'll pay the lump to them.

If you have any questions now is the time to ask them.

I know it's just over the £100 mark but it's as close as we can get it and I think it's damn good for the service and products we're getting.

Take care, hope to hear from you all soon.

Hi,

Their website is: http://www.sfsperformance.co.uk/?gclid=C...tAodlGUAVA and has several colour options. there is an option for choosing colours on the home page  8)

If you can't see the colour you want then ask me and I can ask him  8)

Hey chris, good stuff,it's pricey but whats a hundred quid to look the dogs danglies,fazers want for nothing so they deserve a wee treat now & then.


I'll pm u again but just to put it out there again, i was one of the ones that agreed to let the organisers get a discount for their time,if thats a bit compliated to figure out then i dont mind sharing some of that tooling cost as you've done enough without forking out all that too.


Thanks

I think it's a great price for what it is and considering that kits for other bikes are around £130 to £150 which I imagine this kit will cost without the group buy discount. The guy is really nice and he's also not moved his business out to china like a lot of others so we're also supporting our own Country's economy

Haha, red ones will only make your bike slower but that's your choice  :lol

I'm sure we can sort another form of payment but Paypal is preferred. Please PM me with your payment options and your address for posting to, this can be a work address so the wife doesn't get to the box before you  :lol

Why are you "noggythenog" and not "fraserthefazer" ?  :lol

[noggythenog]

Ha ha, well it seem that one of the admin is the real slim shady & i dont want there to be too many frasers on the site with all the fazers.


I kid you not darrsi my dad actully has a fazer too, an fz6, plus i'm a sweaty sock.....often heard up north is the following:-


'Whos is that fazer?'


'Which wan?'


'The best wan'


'Aw that's frasers'


'Naw ya bawbag!!!...no the fast wan in the sexiest colour, no the wee silver wan, the other grey wan'


'Aw that wan....thats his faithers!!!'


'Awright man cool so what u sayin?'


'Im sayin Its Frasers Faithers Fazer!!!!!!!!!'

[darrsi]

Ha ha, fair play, i thought i'd ask anyway 

[Chris]

Hey everyone,

Still waiting to hear back from a couple of people but there have also been a couple dropped out of the group buy. Understandable and this post is in no way to point the finger, this post is to encourage people to spread the word. It would be a real shame not to get this order in.

If anyone else is interested or knows someone who might be but maybe hasn't seen this thread ie, new members, someone doing a project fighter or other project fzs600 or even someone who isn't on the forum then please get in touch and spread the word. I'm sure we'll get the numbers together but for those who want a kit then this is how you can help to make sure the order goes through.

Now is the time to get a kit if you are thinking about it as we are getting a great price/discount for them. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask me. If you decide to wait and see what the kits are like then you might wait a long time as if we can't get enough people then noone will get a kit and if we do and you decide to buy one then it will cost you quite a bit more. I know it's a lot of money for something which is essentially a "shiny bit" for your bike but why not treat yourself and your bike before the summer    8)

Thanks, and all the best,

Chris

I'll send on the dosh tomorrow What's your paypal? PM it if you want. I don't see it as a cosmetic part. The aul Fazers are getting on in age a bit now so replacing the hoses makes sense. How many more do you need to make the 10?

[Chris]

Hey Mr dude,

PM sent.    We are currently 3 short of the ten minimum order and i'm waiting to hear back from 2 who said that they would be interested initially.

Also a very good point about the hoses getting on a bit. certainly won't hurt to replace/upgrade them  8)
