Collected My Fazer 1000 off of Fazerblue this Morning

[Reaper]

Moving on from my Wanted thread I managed to do a deal with John aka Fazerblue and collected the bike this morning.
Had a quick run round the block on it before money exchanged hands and engine was great but handling was awful but I put this down to Tyre pressures as it had been sitting for a while.
Collected it in a Van so wasnt too fussed and thought I'd sort the tyre pressures and give it a once over when I got home.

So having got back and unloaded it, I can honestly say it's a great looking bike considering it's age.





Only problem was on closer inspection, the reason for the poor handling was that one of the Fork Seals has blown.


So have now spent my afternoon taking the forks out the bike.


Local bike shop have ordered a genuine Yamaha set of fork seals and some freash oil for me so hopefully the parts will be in tomorrow and I can get the front end sorted and back together again  :thumbup
