Hi Guys
It's been a few years since I came here!
I sold my more perfect than yamaha made gen 1 fazer thou 05 plate, ivanised, acra full system bike in 2012
I went to triumph speed triple 1050. 2011 and like a daft fool didn't keep the fazer(told you so springs to mind)
Anyway great bike the trumpet was apart from shocking gearbox and heavy clutch.
I then had the hotrod triumph thunderbird storm 1700 with 8ball paint lucifers ride, amazing kit but too big to get round back of me house.
I traded in for 2015 speed triple r with all the ohlins, arrows etc, sweet gearbox and a sound like a Lancaster bomber!
I now also own well on PCP a new R12015.
The reason I'm here is I want a project to please my missus, as she wants the fazer back, she loved that bike, and more comfy on that than the thunderbird.
Is there any good ones still left that get sold on? Looking for 02-06 gen 1. Can't be many that the great Mike ain't ivanised! I saw an 04 for sale at a dealer for 3500 quid but it had crap headers and doubt the exup had ever been serviced.
Just be nice to get some pointers on prices for one in reasonable condition, miles not a problem as long as full service history.
Anyway hope everyone is well and getting some riding done. Thought I'd say hello in here again first.
Cheers to all fazerish peeps
