Well, after 3 years, 2 Thundercats, an SRAD 750 and a cb250rs I'm back on a Fazer!
Picked her up today, '03 600, 12000 miles for a delightful £1750!
Rode her back 200 miles and was delighted, now don't get me wrong, I was reminded just how capable the engine was but compared to the T'cat and SRAD handling wise it shows, but I expected this anyway so a little fiddling / swapping out of shocks etc will be had and will hopefully help, although the fact she was on 5 year old Conti road attacks would not have helped in the slightest!
She starts work life dispatching on Wednesday so I'll slap her into shape!
So anyway, hello all, again!

A truly confidence inspiring bike, it does have its pitfalls but what bike doesn't!
Tbh, the main reason I got another one was due to 4 non fault accidents in the past 5 years my insurance got cancelled on the Gixxer, courier insurance is still too high for me on this fazer but there's no way I'm pootling along on a cb500!
Give it a couple of years to kill this one and I'll more than likely be back on a T'cat.
My last fazer and T'cat both got to 120,000 miles btw!

120k sure is good value for money, i've always liked the thundercats.Just had a look at howmanyleft and theres apparently only 2600 of them still on the road compared to about 8000 fazer 600s so i suppose theres much less good'ns about compared to the fazer.

Wow Noggy, didn't realise the numbers, I best buy a couple and store them before they go extinct!
