There must be a bit of 'we'll say what people expect' going on there, I think.i have a vfr750 which i found a great bike,but i have to sell it as i have wrist problems so i find it uncomfortable to ride,the seat i have found is the most comfortable for a long time and i could easily ride for 200 miles without a sore bumb.
But having owned both, the Fazer is the better bike. The handling is maybe not quite as secure, but then it's miles faster than any VFR (and you could almost take the new 1200 into account there). It's certainly more comfortable and although the paint finish is poorer on the Gen1 Fazer, the overall quality I think is better. Apart from the rear shock, everything on mine is working as it was 90k miles ago. That's amazing, if you ask me. Show me a VFR on it's original disks and suspension linkages at that mileage . ..
I have to say though, all this talk of VFRs has me gagging for another. And look at the prices of them .. cheap as chips.
here is my bike
