Magazine Feature Query

[alan sherman]

FWIW I have a bank of knowledge in my head about the bolt on / additions that have been available for the FZS600.  The old site had a comprehensive list, some still survives in the FZS600 part of this forum. 

As you were asking for a std one it may not be relevant but if there are questions then give a shout.

He's changed his mind and now doing article on the zxr400

[Dead Eye]

That's fine since Christo only has a ZX400 mwuahaha

Dang!! Proves point about taking time to research. I checked back on the fck fck post and got down to zxr ref :/  didn't think :rolleyes it sounded right

Also helps to have an oddly specific memory... I can remember data (usually no matter how obscure it is) but I can't remember tasks.

So I could tell you a detailed summary of the weather over the next few days... but I won't remember to take an umbrella with me if its due to rain...

Bit pointless then

You tossers are both wrong, It's a ZX4, frame ID ZX400G (the g's important). :lol

[Dead Eye]

Considering the Frame ID, I wasn't that far off!

Oh, so you have a ZS1000? Or is it a FZ100?

you knobber

:rollin
...and I hope nobody thinks they can't insult me just because I help with the forum. That's the least important part of the club.

Still at least Mark has hung around a bit and answered questions and concerns. Many journalists post a "Give me info" thread and are never heard of again. Some members have spent time and effort writing to them only to receive no reply or acknowledgement. So fair play to Mark in that respect.

However the info. he wanted was in the FZS600 board on the first page, so I suggest that not much research was performed, and that perhaps a school magazine reporter would have done more.

And anyway, in time the Foxeye will be more of a classic than the Boxeye (oh yes it will!).

Yes, I'm still around and no need for apologies... it was what it was. In the meantime I had a long and very useful conversation with Paul last night about his '98 longer termer and will notify the forum when the resultant article's going to appear. You can have a proper pop at me after that, if needs be!  :rolleyes

[locksmith]

Glad the forum could be of help to you despite the children shouting rude names at you over the fence

[nick crisp]

Uh-oh, an article on a stuttering old git - Paul might rate a mention too  :rollin

[bigbluebear]

And who could forget this gem of an article....I believe we had some foccers mentioned here too

[red98]

Here, mister,
Hey, mister,
Mister?
Hey, mister, can I ave me ball back please?

[fireblake]

So am I right in thinking he's writing about the baby 600 and not the behemoth 1000?

[Fazerider]

Paul, see if you can persuade Mark to write the first ever article about the FZS600 that doesn't include the myth that it uses a detuned Thundercat engine. :lol

[Punkstig]

Speaking of the Thundercat- pretty much all reviews state it as an 'under rated bike'
As such, whenever I have a conversation with peeps about the Thundercat one of the first things they say is 'it's an 'underated bike"
I too find myself saying it's an under rated bike.
So, if it's been reviewed as an under rated bike, and everyone's knowledge of the Thundercat is that it's an under rated bike does this mean it's no longer under rated???
