Very true Dazza. The roads I ride out here in Spain, when I had SX it was fun. My FZ600 S2 was even better around the mountains. 1 ltr bikes struggled to hang on around the twisties My FZ1 was fun but the MT-09 is even better. I don't think there is much out there better for where I ride.
The SX is a cracking bike and the mk 2 is a big improvement on the mk1 I had. Suspension is much improved , the preload on the rear is so much easier to adjust, traction control etc!! and if you could call a bike sexy the SX certainly is all that. Good as the Fazers were the SX forced Yamaha to drop an aging design and re-think there product range, the SX killed the CBF Honda MK2 1000, what an over priced bike that was.
If some one wanted a decent valued sports touring bike, best value for money out there has to be the big Suzuki Bandit.

MT-09 Tracer for those who no longer can handle a BIG boy Fazer
