We'll I took the missus on a road trip on Sunday aloft the gen 1. A 150 mile round trip on a mix of roads into the lakes. When she got there, she could barely move her legs!
She's hinted over the last week or two that she wants to do a bit of European touring, and until Sunday I was hoping to use the big Fazer. Ain't going to happen really.
She said "why don't you get a tourer?" And then for the bombshell. "Dont sell the Fazer and the R1, let's just buy a tourer!!!!!"
I was gobsmacked! And in true man form I was straight on it, and I've been looking at a shortlist of potential distance machines.
The list so far is:-
Pan European
Fjr1300
BMW 1150/1200 rs/gs/rt
ZZR1200
Tiger 1050
ST1050 GT
If there's any personal reviews of these bikes, good or bad, I'd love to hear them
