Gave up on the Tiger idea. Also gave up on the FJR as I could not see the FJR coping with my kamikaze filtering techniques. Looked at the Z1000SX but they are ridiculously expensive. Cheapest on MCN is £7300.
I was also looking at another FZ1 but would need another bike for the winter as I found the FZ1 a nightmare in slippy conditions.
So looks like I am following Pitternators lead here and "regressing" back to a Gen1 :rolleyes .
I said I would never do it as I think the Gen 2 is a better bike for me, but picking up a '05 FZS1000 for a decent price and will run this all year round.
With the additional funds I am saving I may wait til next year to buy a "toy" ( unless the wife gets here grubby hands on the cash first :'( )
