Gen 2 article by Si Hargreaves

iv got a gen 2 and i love it i like the way it turns you into a hooligan as soon as you get on it iv had lots of big modern bikes and for me its the best allrounder iv owned .i cant ride sportbikes any more due to dodgy wrists and i dont like the way most retro type bikes handle .this bikes just like what it is a sports bike with propper handle bars 

What you obviously wanted was sports bike behaviour and performance without the racing crouch and obviously your FZ1 hits the spot. But "a sports bike with propper handle bars" is not the same thing as an "allrounder", there are a number of other bikes that have a better mix of engine characteristics, tank range, pillion provision, comfort etc whilst still retaining enough performance to satisfy the hooligan urge when it takes hold.
