100,000 miles on a Fazer 1000. The truth.

Genial! That's a good word to describe a Fazer.
Interesting that you find the GS similar in certain ways - I bought a ZZR1400 last year, and it's quite similar to the Fazer too. Trackday it, tour it, commute on it, it does it all and in almost as much comfort as the Fazer.


The difference is that the ZZR is much more serious in attitude. The Fazer's a playful revvy little thing whereas the ZZR's more grown up and not to be trifled with. It does not suffer fools gladly. It is utterly effortless, though. Breathe on a control and it responds. It's almost like riding by thought alone.


I love them both, but the Fazer edges it because it's range of ability is wider. and I do think it's up there for the greatest bike ever built award.
