I'm asking because someone stuck up a post saying they're leaving the site because they sold their Fazer. To me that's silly. I've a feeling that a good percentage of people on here don't have a Fazer or they might have one but use another bike as their main bike.
I don't fit in your vote because the Fazer is my ONLY bike.
Could you add that to the options
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
If it's your only bike it's your main bike so pick the first one.

My gen 1 thou is my main "road" bike, but I probably do as much mileage on my off road KTM - can I say it's "one of my main bikes"? :rollin
I only have the two bikes, but do occasionally use the KTM for a shortish road ride just because I love it.
cheers

If a tank was about to drive over the two of them and you could only push one of them out of the way which one would it be? :lol

? Good question! Thing is there are less than 90 KTM 950 SuperEnduros in the UK and they are going up in value, I just couldn't replace it. Love my gen 1 Fazer thou on the road but it would be easy to replace, so the KTM gets saved. I'd then go out and find a new Fazer thou!

Rightly or wrongly i partly ended up with my fz1 because of how good this place is......i havent been interested in any other bike forums & although it goes quiet in here at times i still enjoy it.......a good level of help & banter without everyone being abusive dickheads.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

----------------------
Ride fast, ride a red bike :-)
I've got 3 different bikes and they all get used. Probably similar ish mileages.. Fazer for longer trips and probably a bit more mileage if anything...
If it's broken, it's not fixed.
My FZ1 is my main bike but also looking for something else to keep it company it the garage. A couple of times I thought about selling it but it such a good all rounder despite the shit fuel range.
As soon as I'm out on it the fuel range is irrelevant Also, I had a fazer when I first joined up here then sold, stayed on here, then bought my current one last year.
My other bikes a car..................
Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
recently bought a s1000rr and by eck its fun but its uses are limited to sunday blasts frighening the life out of myself,,these roads are not for sport bikes :'( ,my fazer beats it hands down for power with comfort and great in around traffic,,grand and relaxing ,,i do be gettin off the beemer stiff shellshocked and pissed off that i seem to have the aches and pains of a 90 year old man,,some feckin yoke to move though,,
please god let the sun keep shining
I sold my Fazer 600 a long time ago and use and R1 all year round ( if its snowing DT50MX :rollin ) still come on here as its a great forum

Can't do the poll, as although my main bike is the Fazer, the nearest option says if I go anywhere, it's on the Fazer. But I go places on the Street Triple too.
No doubt though, if I could only keep one of them, it'd be the Fazer. This 5th one is the best sorted I've had and is perfect for me
Interesting. close enough to 60:40 between diehard Fazer and might use the Fazer/ don't have a Fazer
I used to have an FZS600 but got rid of it for the wrong reason. By the time I realised, I decided I wanted something newer but like a fazer so got the CBF1000 as there were no newish Gen1 or FZS600 around anymore.
Since then my son has got an FZS600 and I ride that when I can. I purposely haven't MOT'd the FZS for him while he is away at uni or the CBF wouldn't get any miles put on it.
I have now decided to get myself a second bike to keep in my damp shed in France for when I am out there. The CBF is too good a condition to subject it to that and I wouldn't want an FZS to rot away unloved there either so got an old Triumph Tiger to hide away over there instead. I would love to have a Fazer to hoon around the French roads on again but until I can find somewhere warm and dry to keep one, I will stick with the old tiger.
Another ex-Fazer rider that is a foccer again

What about a "I used to have a Fazer" option?
Mine was written off in an accident last October. I haven't been riding again long and am using my old VFR until I get my compensation. then I'll decide what to buy based on how much I get.
Cheers

Main motorcycle is a Fazer, but I go anywhere by bicycle.
I've tried various motorycles. In terms of technicalities (weight, torque range etc), a perfect bike for me should be a 500 cc parallel twin, like a Honda CB 500, but Fazer is somehow perfect. Can't get to change it.
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
My main bike is a Planet X London Road custom, but that probably doesn't count. :lol My Fazer is my only motorbike though.
If anyone needs me, I'll be in the angry dome.
