Hi Ian,

There you have it, I reckon.  You've pushed on beyond the point where you and your suspension settings were comfortable.  Or tyres, tyre pressures, etc etc.  What have you got on there?  What sort of mileage on 'em?

I agree with Allan about getting the suspension refreshed at both ends.  Then start experimenting with set up if you want to but remember that you'll never get the 11 year old, steel frame Gen 1 to grip and handle like a true sports bike.

Also, ask yourself how well equipped you are skill-wise to push your Fazer that hard.  Doesn't take much to go beyond your comfort level to the point where tension starts to interfere with your control and riding.  Not dissin' you as a rider, just making a point that we all have our limits. Smile
