Was following a Kwaka ER600 on the way home from work earlier, looks much better than the ER5 but still sounds like a total shitter.
My mechanic used to give me an ER5 as a courtesy bike and it was like riding a skip with an engine compared to my bike.
Get a Fazer in good nick running sweet and you can't ask for much more.

I have just bought this 2003 Fazer with 6000 miles on the clock. Only done a short ride but was suitably impressed.

So THAT'S what mine looked like when new!!...I've always wondered. :lol

:eek 6000 and I thought I didn't ride mine enough, nice find - well done.
I see that your rear guard has already been cut down, I would suggest that you move the numberplate up and over the reflector right under the rear light. You may need a new plate so that you use the same guard holes.
I think it looks better, but I do have a hugger AND I dont do rain, so not sure if spray is a problem.
The picture was before I fitted a reflector on the bottom of the plate, some people add a stick on dot reflector on the plate to comply with mot.

Rear mudguard looks as standard as the rest of the silver bike (all bar the crash protection n the double bubble). Maybe just an extra large number plate fitted?.. ps There's still no red rear reflector on the black boxeye
.. Ps Silver 03 foxeyes are the bestest n fastest :b
