FFS do you ever own a bike for more than six months.
It says in your strap line ' Owned over a hundred bikes'

Welcome back
Do you mean you had a Z1000SX? I'd be really interested to hear your comparisons between the two, speed/grunt, comfort, handling etc as I was thinking it might be my next bike after a few years with the Fazer!

Hi Jonny, the Fazer is the bike that i have had the longest, 5 years, sold it, bought it back after 4 years!
The SX was a great bike, mega engine pulls from nothing and is sports bike fast, heavy ish steering at slow speed, lots of vibes through the seat and foot pegs, not as comfy as the Fazer on long trips, better brakes than the Fazer (its more modern), handles well in the twisties,
Go try one, it may be for you (i should have kept the fazer warm in the garage whilst owning the SX)
