FZ1 or FZS 1000 Wanted - The Tenacious Spoon - 13-03-16

Hello all

I am new to this place and I am looking at getting a bike. I have previousl owned a Triumph Daytona 650 (first bike) then a Triumph Sprint 1050 (hit by a lorry) and then a bandit 1250 (had to sell as I was buying a house). Now I have found my self in a position where I have unfortunately got a little bit of money to buy a bike. I have riddena friends FZS1000 a few years back and I enjoyed it and I have liked Fazers ever since.

So if anyone has a FZ1 or FZS for sale between £3000 to £3750 then please get in touch.

Make sure you have a test on a fz1 as it's a lot different to the fzs.

Yeah, I have been told the fueling on it is not as good. Thanks for the heads up.

Depends on the individual bike, some people don't notice it on their bike , others find it really noticeable.
The later the bike year it seems to be better, many owners fit a power commander and like me get a custom map for their bike done, not cheap though.

Only on the early FZ1's. My 2009 model is perfect from the factory and a lot of the early ones will have been sorted anyway.

I have a silver 2002 Fzs1000 with 16k miles on it.  Has an R6 rear shock + the original.  Standard screen on it at mo but I have a Black double bubble.  Quill road legal exhaust (slight dent) and the original.  Fazer rad cover. and Givi Rack (plus original grab handles).  Scottoiler. Colour coded seat cover, bagster I think.  There are a couple of chips on the rear of the tank from a zip.

Looking for around £2500

Hi Spoons, you should say roughly your location, so that if anyone is close by you can go and view it. Best of luck with your search. Smile

I libe in South Yorkshire. I also have relatives in Cheshire (on the missus side) so anywhere roughly in the North is easily accessible.
