Nothing kinky or obscureĀ
When any of you first got your Gen 1 Fazer, was it instant satisfaction or did it take a while to bond?
Picked up my Gen 1 in late Feb but as yet I don't feel like I have bonded with it yet! Have only ridden it 12 - 18 times and these were only 1 or 2 hr ride outs. Not sure if its the bike or me.
Late September last year I had an accident on my GSX 1400, which resulted in my bike being written off and me with a very nasty broken ankle. No one else was involved mind, wasn't speeding or riding like an idiot - I just got it wrong and paid the price. The Fazer is my first bike since the accident, I don't ride along and worry or panic that it might happen again - I just don't feel that I'm enjoying biking as much as I used to.
There are a couple of niggly things that I would like to do to the bike to make me happier - the first being balancing the carbs as she can be a little lumpy at low revs and hoping it will also eradicate the slight rattling noise I get from the clutch when the bike is in neutral and the clutch lever is out.
Any words of wisdom or should I man the f u and get out and rideĀ :rollin
