Glasgow to Skye
« on: 26 August 2012, 11:02:12 am »
Hello last week end i bought a 2000 fazer 600 on ebay .As i live on Skye i got the bus to Glasgow to pick up the bike.I got back into biking a few years ago with a honda ntv600 which if you don't know is a deauvill without half a ton of plastic . Yesterday i picked up the fazer and rode back to Skye , what a fantastic bike this is lots of power very good handling and very comfortable , i got home with the a big smile and no aches or pains.

Welcome-I bet you found a difference between the Fazer & the NTV. Both good bikes but very different in their character & power delivery! Havent been near the Kyle of Lochalsh since 1969! Enjoy! :lol
