Hello all im a newb to riding and have had my 1999 fzs600 since october last year. Every time i go to do a simple job, i.e change brake lads adding heated grips or just removing the wing mirror to take off the fairing i royally foc things up and make more work for myself. Im sure you lot will be having a right laugh at my expense. Hey ho im learning.

Welcome to the site..... I am SO glad it's not me.  The number of times guys on here have told me something is an "easy", 1 hour job and the next thing there is a long post of all my foc ups and weeks without a bike!


Just see my bit about "CHEAP chinese levers" that turned into a new master cylinder and 2 new calipers and was far from cheap.
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!

Your big mistake in doing any bike diy is that you clearly are not swearing enough, a good selection of profanities are the most useful tools in your tool box.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
