I guess I've got a soft spot for them. I've had 3 fazers to date and they're pretty good all round bikes. I did look at a low mileage FZS1000 but it was very standard, nor cheap compared to some decent spec ones with changed shocks, cans, etc with higher miles.The FZ1s is something that I like and know quite well. I tried recently a Z1000sx, CBF1000 and a GSXS1000F.
Makes sense. Just wondered what made you let the mt10 go? Didn’t you like it or is it too expensive?
Also what didn't you like about the z1000sx? That's a bike I seriously considering as the next upgrade from my Fz1
I had a tracer 900 for 2 years, loved it. Suspension wasn’t the best and took a lot to dial out the gremlins, but the new GT version has decent fully adjustable stuff and it’s fully sorted. If I had the money I’d have the GT version

I didn't like the dash layout, the way the chain adjusts, short servicing intervals, the wind blast and short gearing. They're all minor points apart from the wind blast that maybe would change with different screen.

I have noticed the odd looking adjusters?
