what did you do with your fazer today ?

[Grahamm]

Went on a Ride out with some other members of the Solent Advanced Motorcyclists around various parts of the south of England.

It was great fun with lots of twisty bits, just a shame that the A342 was closed so we had to divert via the A303 dual carriageway which was really boring, but still, at least I saw Stonehenge with my own eyes (in passing!)

It got a little nerve wracking at the end, the guy leading it said it would be about 150 miles and I'd ridden 30 to get to the start point (Ower services off the M27) , so I thought I'd be ok on fuel, but then because of the diversion and him changing the route a bit, I was almost down on Reserve and we were around the Thruxton area!

Fortunately, now I've got the Power Commander with the Dual Map option, I was switching between the basic Zero Map and the "fun map" for a boost of power when I needed it and it's actually improved the FZ6's fuel economy because I used to get 175 miles from a full tank to reserve, but now I get 190 which was enough to get me back to the start point without running on vapour...

Apart from that, it was a really fun day's riding
