Welcome to the fast lane 

Hi, Great, will see what its like when i dig it out of the garage, the bolts did,nt look rusty so hopefully its ok, will keep everyone posted and hopefully get some pics when i get a chance to upload them

Hi Dave, sounds good, will eventually change to the hazards and flasher if they just plug in all the better  will post pics as soon as i get some taken. shes a beautie 

Hi, its only been used in the uk as far as i,m aware, all the mot,s were done in the uk, it certainly does,nt feel lacking in performance, yes i noticed the screen change , intend to get a vario screen for mine  can the switchgear from with the flasher and hazard switch be retrofitted? anyone know?

  Ok, thanks will be visiting my dealer soon, i assume theres no difference in performance?? can the uk switches be retro fitted? 

  Hi thanks for the reply, i was assured it was a uk model but maybe it was,nt, are there differences between UK and US models? Can anyone shed some light on this?

Just to answer you manuel32 yes riding position on ZX12 a bit extreme  especially coming from a fazer 1000, great bike though it was an unrestricted version so unbelievably quick  anyone looking for a low mileage ZX12 check cmc  cannock after sunday, its a beauty  for me the fazer does it better though 

  Hi , yes i am getting it from cmc cannock, got a great deal too  the gen 1 is the best all round bike i have had and i,ve ow ned a lot of bikes ZZR1400 ,  three busas , two R1s ZZR1100, ZX10R, ZX10 X2, BLACKBIRD, FIREBLADE zx12r x3, All great bikes but the fazer is what i enjoy more than anything listed here mind the busa 08 model was an awesome machine  hope cmc in cannock is easy to find as i,m coming from 30 miles south of edinburgh , good to hear from you , M

Hi all, would like to introduce myself, my name is Martin, i,m returning to a gen 1 fazer 1000 again after a breif ( 2 months ) on a ZX12R , i sold my 05 gen 1 to buy it and regretted it straight away  i returned to the shop to buy it back but someone had put a deposit on it  so a week of searching i now am picking up a nice 05 model with 11800 miles this sunday 2nd sept in cannock near birmingham, riding down from scotland with a mate whos picking up an 05 8in silver in rochdale the same day so should be a good days riding  this will be my 3rd gen 1 as i had one in 2008 too, just keep coming back to them, this one will be a keeper though  , hope to hear from all of you soon, Martin.
