Had one as a courtesy bike last week, looks a lot better than it goes and I almost fell asleep on it.

I was tempted by them instead of the FZS600, I didn't get to test ride one before a fazer came up though.

Did my Direct Access o one. Such an easy bike to ride and mild mannered. I wanted one as a first big bike but the wise old instructor said 'You'll be bored in 6 months', so I bought a Mighty Thou and I am not bored.
