With a tweak here and there, she's now holding the corners easily as good as my R1!!! Although it does take considerably more effort to turn the big girl ???

I find myself taking the Fazer out more than the R1 these days, I'm almost as quick on her, and a lot less scared!! >Big Grin

He's wavering  :eek

We'll soon have another convert  Big Grin

Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - stevierst - 23-05-15

Na, unlikely. Rode the R1 to work this morning, and the comparison is a bit like this.
The R1 is like riding a scalpel, and the gen 1 is like riding a meat cleaver. Both razor sharp, but very different!

Perhaps the best comparison would be topiary sheers and a hedge trimmer.  Big Grin
