I've only had my FZS1000 for 6 months, but already it seems like an old friend. Of all the bikes I've owned, this is the one that keeps growing on me. Normally, I see something which I think suits me better or that will be faster or better at touring or whatever! I usually think of a dozen reasons to change, but the Fazer Thou does just about everything I want!
In the past, I've had commuters, tourers, roadsters, sports-tourers and supersports. 250cc through to 1700cc, singles, twins, triples, 4IL and V4's, chains and shafts, Superdreams to Fireblades. The only thing I've not had is a cruiser
.
Only the Fazer has the right balance. I say balance, because every bike out there is a compromise in one way or another.
My only regret is failing to buy a brand new one while they were still in production
