Hi everyone! After 10 years on Hondas, '98 Blade and a "yawn" brief current spell on a '08 CBF1000ABS, ive decided that I need to return to my roots and get a Fazer 1000. I used to be a Yam man, DT50, RS125, YPVS350N1, FZ750, FZR600, FZR1000, TDM850 etc, but after being seduced by the quality of the streetfightered Blade I lost my way. Ive had the CBF for about 8 months and am bored to death with it, you never get off it thinking "that was great!" Its not that its a bad bike, its bloody wonderful as a long distance transport system, but its just not for me. So, as I cant buy a Honda Fazer 1000 or a Honda TDM850, I'm back to Yamaha. I don't really know a lot about the different Generations of the 1000 (ive tried the search function but not had much luck finding a definitive explanation) so any pointers would be appreciated. I reckon a 2003 model with as many upgrades to the suspension as I can afford, unless you lot know different! See you all in the forums!!
Billy.
