With good maintenance and care and assuming this one isnt flawed what kind of mileage might I be able to realistically rack up? Is 1900 pounds expensive by fazer standards? It seems like a great bike to develope all sorts of riding skills. Thank you for the response.
Well it certainly looks nice on the photos.......& 25k is pretty low mileage.....to back up proof of the mileage i can see that it has the standard (black) steel downpipes instead of aftermarket stainless steel types (originals rust away quickly so this shows that it is in good shape)
Also from what can be made out on the photo the suspension fork stanchions are pretty clean looking....in the uk they are often pitted, like corrosion on the alloy from stone impacts and bad weather effect.
It also looks as if it has been jacked up on the rear end.....a nice modification that is easily done......you can see the way the gap between the tail and the back wheel is quite large....p,us the back wheel is almost touching the grass while on the centre stand.
These bikes can do 100, 000 miles if looked after...maybe more.
Price is about same as UK
It is the S model, nice paint, larger capacity fuel tank, 200 mile range
Hope this helps
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
