Modern Day Gen 1 Replacement?

[Ravenscar]

With the passion that Fazer owners have for their bikes and the respect that Fazers have from the rest of the community, they must be considered a classic. Especially the Gen 1.  In that sense there is no replacement. Maybe I used the wrong word. Modern equivalent perhaps? We'd expect over a decade of development to result in a better bike in terms of performance and handling.  In real terms I suspect the BMW is cheaper than a brand new Fazer was in 2001 too.
