what did you do with your fazer today ?
Rode up the Pico Veleta in the Sierra Nevada. Its closef to motor vehicles at 8500ft which is a shame. But wow what a road - as good at Monte Giovo and Gavia.

Also the Alcataz to Albacete road; sensational.

Well I've fitted and modded the following on my gen2 today... PCV, lars air box mod, O2 optimiser, copperdawgs flies, blocked AIS and k&n... And she pulls like a train.... Now need some dyno time... Booked in for next Saturday... Happy days!!  :lol

how did you get the old flies off???...think I mushed a couple of my screws and then I gave up :\

Easy enough if you heat the screws up before trying to undo them as they're held in with threadlock. I did mine today. Heated the screws up with a soldering iron.
I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.

cheers Gra...yeh I heated up a big screwdriver and then held it on for a few seconds but I suspect it wasn't good enough and mainly that my screwdrivers weren't small enough.....im loathe to attempt it again this year now

Rode over to Erwlon campsite at Llandovery on Saturday, met with slim and dazza on Sunday for a good ride, then enjoyed two more days of good riding weather in Wales before heading home in the pissing rain today. I'll let the pictures do the talking:
