Bought an 02 Foxeye last April which have Pirello Diablo's on. Getting a bit low now. Too be honest my riding style is 'gentle' (some may say boring - some may say safe) but I know I'm not going to be knee scraping, so my question is what do I put on next. Michelin PR4's? Any other suggestions?

OK - this is it - first proper ride for 25 years. Going to take it easy, remember all my past training and not get too excited!
Everybody off the roads - NOW!

Nope

Remember that feeling when you were a kid waiting for Santa to bounce you up and down on his knee? Oh, no, sorry that's a different story. Remember waking up on Christmas morning and you couldn't wait to open those prezzies.
Well it's Christmas day today for me - collect my (new to me) Fazer
Having not had a bike for 25 years (and never having owned a Yammie) this is like Christmas. Yes weather is like Xmas too - pissing down!! Still won't dampen the spirits - yeeeehhhaaaa!

Probably luminous orange with yellow spots, a touch of burnt umber and a hint of cadmium red, quite fetching I think

Introduced myself earlier this month talking about getting back into biking after 20+ yrs. Well I've gone and done it - bought a 2002 FZS 600 - silver, 23K on the clock. Collect next Saturday but will be trailering as a 130 mile trip after not being on a bike for any length of time is probably not a good idea! Not sure if this is the right area but I'm after a rear hugger and a front extender - best place to get them (and can I get rear hugger the same colour?). Also engine bars or bobbins - any preferences to which is best? And where to get them.

Looks v neat - top end of budget but you gets what you pay for. I think I messed up and sent this same reply via email . Anyway, learning all the time on Forum about FZS’s. My guess about the one I was looking at is it may have been dropped and older parts replaced? Who knows?
Edge of welsh borders mean most bikes a good 2/3 hrs away but I’m going to have to bite the bullet and get out there. Anyone put deposit on without viewing to secure if it’s a dealer? A bit too risky maybe.

adasilva - thanks. Is that a move to the Dark Side going for an 04 Fazer onwards?
I’d thought that 02/03 would be the way to go with budget- plus carbs rather than injected?
Forgive my ignorance - just getting back into this after 20+ yrs. -  want to get it right.
Any comparison info good

mtread - thx for advice - have booked myself onto a refresher course - itching to get bike but will be patient- budgeting about £2 - 2.5K
