Fazer a cracking bike

[Lez72]

What about the mt-09? It's a hoot to ride, and it's a right torquey hooligan.

Its a possible Steve but the only reason I put the FZ8 in my shortlist is down to brand loyalty I guess. The other 3 are there because they are a bit different and I have never owned a Triumph, Aprillia or a Ducati. The shortlist may be down to 2 now though after checking out the 2nd hand prices of the Tuono V4PRC on Ebay. HOW MUCH. Way above a man of my means  :'( I suppose the older Tuono would be a viable option and they are more affordable but they just look unfinished to me and nowhere near as nice as the latest model. When did naked bikes get so expensive ???

I think I have just stumbled upon the reason we love our Fazers so much !!!. They are a hard act to follow (hence the reason we always have massive debates about what to replace them with) and, they are affordable. When it comes down to performance per £££ what other allrounders come close. The emphasis here is on ALLROUNDERS, not cheap sportsbikes.
