Title: Magazines, Online Articles, Posters, etc. for Gen 1
Post by: hap on 19 November 2012, 12:02:46 am

 Does anyone have the following magazines featuring Gen 1 articles ... that they want to part with?  I know I can buy back issues of some, but I'll go broke.  If anyone who has these issues and can advise if they contain substantial articles (worth my getting the mag) or just a one-line reference, I'd appreciate it.

Motorcycle Consumer News (May 2001)

I got my 2005 FZ1 in 2010 and therefore missed all the “news” when originally published.
 
I’ve heard that these mention the Gen 1 (so I could use the issue date, if anyone knows).
 

Sport Touring

Adventure Motorcycle

Sportbikeworld.com

Also would appreciate if anyone knows of any other publications (including issue date) or online sites with reviews, articles, comparisons. 
 As long as I'm asking for the world, does anyone have any dealer/manufacturer ads, brochures, posters, copy of an original, dealer bill of sale, etc.?
 
(Yes, I may be a little obsessed.) :b

Errr....most of these sound like American publications so you may have limited success here. Have you tried our American cousins over at yamahafz1oa.com? You may have more success there.
Failing that, there are plenty of UK publications with Fazer coverage, not to mention web reviews such as Visordown's coverage below....

I have a scanned article from Ride Magazine a few years ago
