New member family - Millietant - 13-04-14 Morning All, Just a quick intro hello - although I don't own a Fazer "personally" (I have a FJ 1200 and an Aprilia RSV) I'm still a big fan, having bought a Fazer 1000 for my wife and a Fazer 600 for my son. The 1000 was bought in 2003 and is in superb shape. It's been toured extensively, Liz has done few laps of the Nurburgring on it and she used it for work when she was bike instructing, as well as being just her pleasure riding toy. This is the 600 I bought for my son when he passed his test 2 years ago (as he was only just over 17, it had to be restricted to 33bhp - but, today he rode it for the first time in full power mode)  We were very lucky with this one, having bought it from our best friends in as-new condition, even at 9 years old (but only 10k miles). I fitted the rack and then put his mums top box on it (for carrying things to school) and the exhaust can (to save the original). Great bikes. The 600 had a low speed tumble on the left last year (early/young rider silly tip-off) which put some minor scratches on it, but nothing serious - just to keep it in top nick, I'll be looking for some replacement parts. Cheers. Re: New member family - mr self destruct - 13-04-14 Best. Dad.

Welcome to the focer family, Bikes all look great, bet your son was smiling pretty big when he got home after a derestricted run! Get stuck into the forum, we're a mad bunch but we don't bite unless you like that kind of thing.

Re: New member family - Chris - 24-09-14 Great picture!  8) Chris Re: New member family - Millietant - 24-09-14 Coz I'm not in it  Re: New member family - downey - 03-10-14 nice collection mate ,we might have YOU on a fazer yet ,a lot more comfortable for the longer trips  :lol Re: New member family - Millietant - 19-12-14 Yep, the Fazer's much more comfy, but I have my FJ 1200 for the longer trips - sorry to say, but with 17" wheels, USD EXUP forks, Hagon Shock and R1 brakes, the FJ is still my favourite over the Fazer 1000.
