Which Fazer is the best and why?

[Gnasher]

I will not put e10 in my 25 year old bike i do not care if I am told it is safe and effective 
Any future issues ‐ how can I prove it was the e10 and who is going to compensate me. I will trust my instincts again on this me thinks

You'll have little choice now  :lol

I can t really comment since ive only ever ridden the fz6 s2, but i will throw into the mix that I would never have another carburated motorcycle, both from personal experience and noting the many posts on here regarding carb problems with the fzs600. That alone makes the fz6 s2 a superior machine to the fzs600

Never had an issue on any of my carburetor model bikes. My 600 has 97000miles and the 1000 has 50000miles. The 2 Serows I own have 20000 miles on each also without issue. Any problems I have come across is with is fuel evaporation especially with Ethanol based fuels causing jet clogging. I have seen similar issues with fuel injected bikes with injectors clogging from fuel being left in them for long periods of non use. However it does take longer to cause issue than  carbs as they are less prone to evaporation. Blocked injectors are a bigger pain to sort than blocked jets and more expensive.The only injected bikes I have ridden that I could live with were the FJR1300 and believe it or not the S1000RR.

Pretty much every bike I see/work on that's had/got fuel system issues be they Crab or Injected is down to other issues not the fuel be that E5 or 10.  Crab model bikes imported into the UK above 250cc are as far as I'm aware all injected and have been for approximately 10yrs ish, over 500cc longer.

Every Fazer or any other bike, I've worked on/repaired with blocked jets has been due to, contaminated fuel being put in, rust in the tank, leaking filler cap seals or split fuel pipes, allowing water ingress, the same applies to injections systems.  The issue is the owners not the fuel it's self.
