what did you do with your fazer today ?

[nick crisp]

And, thanks to you....Becoming rarer, apparently.  :b

:lol

It will live on, but won't be yellow

Looked at adjusting the R6 shock on the gen 1  this morning, and realised the damping was on its lowest setting.

With a tweak here and there, she's now holding the corners easily as good as my R1!!! Although it does take considerably more effort to turn the big girl ???

I find myself taking the Fazer out more than the R1 these days, I'm almost as quick on her, and a lot less scared!! >

He's wavering  :eek

We'll soon have another convert 

[stevierst]

Na, unlikely. Rode the R1 to work this morning, and the comparison is a bit like this.
The R1 is like riding a scalpel, and the gen 1 is like riding a meat cleaver. Both razor sharp, but very different!

Perhaps the best comparison would be topiary sheers and a hedge trimmer.
