Hi All,
Just bought not only my first Fazer but my first Yamaha after over 40 years of riding. It's a '98 600, red, with a rather fruity sounding Quill end can on stainless downpipes. It's in good nick with a genuine 16k miles. New tyres (Bridgestone BT021s), new battery, good chain and sprockets and a Scottoiler It's for a mix of commuting and pleasure runs on sunny weekends. It was rather a bargain, too
Having owned a right mix of bikes including a Varadero and a GoldWing, the Fazer seems tiny and the pegs rather high. I'm sure I'll get used to it, although I may look to lower the pegs a little.
My first question is, What should the tyre pressures be (in psi, please)?
