Anyone seen this month's copy of "Bike"? 500th issue, proper trip down memory lane! Fazer thou gen 1 gets a very brief mention under the banner "Wow"! Wheelie king 
Nice mention for the gen 2 as well (again, very brief). But loads of bits from old mags, many copies of which I had. Love the bit about the turbo bikes - confirms I had the only one worth having, and sums it up nicely. There really hasn't ever been another production bike quite like it
My first issue was August 1980, the one with the Italian 500s comparison test - see the pic of the Montjuic rider removing his brain through the top of his helmet; and this mag was a major influence on my approach to biking! :eek :evil :lol
And they're at it again; article about a Rocket III with supercharger... :think I know, I'm easily led astray :eek :evil :b :lol
