Hi Foccers
Time to sell the missus' Foxeye Fazer 600.
She still loves it but doesn't have the time to ride it.
Loads of good points but a couple of minor things to note - details as follows:-
New PR3s fitted front & rear 2k miles ago
New chain & sprockets fitted 7k miles ago but bike fitted with Scottoiler so still like new and loads of adjustment left
Iridium spark plugs fitted at same time as chain & sprockets
Stainless downpipes fitted & PipeWerx end can (lovely sound) so no rust issues in the future
[size=1em]Replaced OEM fuel gauge with a [/size]Christian Vieth electronic multi-gauge — gear indicator, fuel gauge, air temp, water temp & many more - cracking bit of kit
Upgraded 12mm front sprocket nut (cures the common 9mm nut fault)
Wingrack 2 luggage system with integrated indicators (the fitting kit for the FZS 600 is[size=1em]very rare; try finding one!!) together with Kappa topbox & small panniers[/size]
Oxford heated grips fitted
META Alarm fitted with upgraded next-gen battery fitted a couple of years ago which has a single connector that allows a quick swap should the battery ever need replacing in the future
Crash bungs fitted
Always garaged and kept on a CTEK battery optimiser
Always starts first time and runs sweet as a nut - no issues with any of the mechanicals as far as I am aware
Now the couple of bad points:-
Rear wheel paint is flaking quite badly in places so could do with a powder coating (front wheel is fine)
Left hand engine casing scuffed where I dropped it getting it off the centrestand outside college one evening - what a pillock.
An absolute bargain and an awful lot of bike at £1800.
Sad to see it go but the mighty thou will keep me happy!!
I live in Cwmbran, South Wales if you want to come and have a look.
Cheers Foccers,
Dave.
Take a deep breath, coz it all starts now, when you pull the foccin' pin

HiI love the bike but unfortunately I've JUST (10 days ago!) bought my first fazer, a couple of the things I really miss is the gear indicator and the outside temperature reading (as I ride all year round).But....Can you point me in the direction of that Christian Vieth Electronic multi gauge please! More than interested in that and how it fits and functions.Good luck with the sale too!Mike
absolutely lovely bike in the flesh this, and if it wasn't over my step sons budget i'd be heading over yours tomorrow dave..
good luck with the sale mate.
Rome is frigging expensive btw, but shes happy.....
that it is. me stepson will love it. Ive promised him if he uses it for a year and then wants to change (its his first bike) ill buy it off him for the same money, but I dont think i'll be able to pry it out of his hands in truth.. :lol :lol
