[alan sherman]

New fork oil - lovely

[Davebo]

Rode to work in the cloud down the A1 then back in sunshine on A/B roads.

First commute. Job done.

Perfect bike. 

[Lawrence]

I almost wiped out a cyclist with my  :faz  this morning!  :eek :eek :eek

Better luck next time 

[tony22]

Lubed the chain, daily commute to London, added some more flys to the fairing..

[dBfazer600]

Ran out to Squires Café Bar testing a sat nav, never again  :o  will I use it as it has no idea of a bikers needs. Bloody enjoyed the run back home with MP3 player blasting out Slayer  :evil

Had a ride out to a mates in staxton north Yorkshire only about 70miles round trip but it's a decent road so I enjoyed it.

Put the fazer on the trailer & set off for a trouble free drive home to wales, leaving scotland at 0930am .....350 miles later & the car decided to die :\ .


An RAC visit followed by a recovery truck followed by an eventual recovery home seen me walk through the door at 1110pm :'(




On the plus side the  :faz [size=78%] is ok [/size] 8) , & my only reliable transport! 8)

[nick crisp]

Yeah, but Noggy, you're back, you've got the bike AND IT'S STILL SUNNY!   And it looks like you had a good time - more pluses than minuses in my book. 8)

[Enceladus]

fitted a new set of iridium plugs.
looks like the old set were the original ones that came with the bike (2001 & 9k miles) !
fired up with a very light touch of the starter

[nick crisp]

Nothing. Why? Cos it looks like I've come down with a viral infection - was sitting in the garden in hot sunshine with a pullover on, shivering! Someone cheer me up... :'(

[slimwilly]

Cut my recently aquired double bubble screen  ,it was lifting the airflow to a stupid height,right at your head,doh,


So Sunday will prove if the clean air undisturbed is quieter than disturbed air.



note the small beer fridge on the left,,an essential for a hot garage

[littlejohno]

Purchased some redex and plug resisitors to get fitted later and hopefull stop my bogging issue

[slimwilly]

Thought about the smart gold chains !!!!!!!! :rolleyes




So cleaned the sideplates , bought some metallic gold,brass airfix paint and painted it,,the only way to see if it stays on is to try it  :eek





Dabbing the paint on with a pad of kitchen roll



There,, all blingy for £1.70


Leave it in the sun for a couple of hours to bake then re-lube the chain ,i never cleaned the whole chain,just the sideplates with white spirit.



So the cut down screen and gold chain,,haha, it's coming together.

[Farjo]

Written in retrospect: balanced carbs - took about 40 minutes, a lot of which was spent squinting for adjustment screws :rolleyes A squirt of WD40 helped as they then glint in the sunlight.

[red98]

ordered front sprocket nut and clutch lever for newly aquired 600,and oil filter for the mighty thou  :lol .....wemoto £21 for the lot delivered 

[nick crisp]

I never used to trust aftermarket oil filters, as one mechanic told me they're generally not very well made - anybody else heard similar?

[slimwilly]

No !!!


I expect and trust them so far,, for my bike and all my cars and vans,even my new hilux has aftermarket filters.

[Skippernick]

New front tyre on.
Cleaned and greased the spindle etc whilst the wheel was out.
Next brake lines. Gulp.
