Bloomin heck these things don't hang about!

Im amazed by this bike, I swear I'll never sell it, it's in the family for good!

That's exactly how I feel. Who knew when I bought it 9 years ago as a kind of stop gap bike that I'd still have it today, and that today's bikes would be no better. I've ridden the Tuono V4, VFR1200, Z1000SX, Multistrada, etc and good as some of them are, better made, higher quality, faster, better handling, with new tech like traction control and ABS, there's something so right about the Fazer. Nothing has the right blend of usability, performance and charisma to make me give it up.
