FZS 1000

...Whenever I get new rubber the bike is always easier to turn, so make sure you look at the tyre on your test ride, if the tyres are squared off the bike will feel hard to turn....[/quote]

Absolutely agree on that! Do not judge a used bike test-ride on worn tyres! I thought the Fazer Thou felt dull and lazy in the turn until I put a new set of tyres on it and WOW!! It's a brilliant bike in terms of handling, comfort and power. I've had 40 bikes and no bike is perfect, but the FZS1000 isn't far off it.
