Just seen the link to the up coming GSR1000 on MCN

Got me thinking about the fazer.. the FZ1 is getting a bit long in the tooth now (2006) Needs to be updated. Yes I know they brought out the FZ8 and yeah the MT-09 is a fun sporty naked but this is not a replacement for the FZ1 or the FZS1000 in my eyes...
The general trend in most super nakeds is to take a sports bike motor and re-tune for more useable power.
on that basis I would really welcome a new Fazer with a crossplane crank engine.. I love the sound of the R1 but being the wrong side of 17 stone is not the bike for me. If they did a new Fazer 1000 with the comfort of the Gen1 and the R1 crossplane engine re-tuned to 150-160bhp I would be throwing my money at Yamaha dealers lol.
thoughts?

Lord,
Grant me the WD-40 to move those things that are stuck, the Duck tape to fasten those things that are loose, And the wisdom to know the difference.
Amen
