65 now, 66 in May, had many over the years ranging from XS750 triple, CBR100, Hayabusa etc etc, got a Suzuki SZ on a whim, horrible thing, had a TDM 900 for a while, got a Bandit 600 as thought it would be lighter but lads i go out with step on a bit and Bandit was wringing its neck every time i went out, enter the Fazer 1000, had a test ride on one a long time ago and was impressed, now got a low miles 2004, dropped one tooth on front sprocket and happy days, now goes like a stabbed rat
well comfy, had my seat redone by Tony Archer, no back pain, no numb bum, now have a little smile at all mature sportbike riders, having a stretch at every red light cos back is breaking, flapping hands at every opportunity to relieve cramps etc etc, this one's a keeper an as long as I can get on it will be riding it
