I was aiming for something newer as my 00' fzs has become a bit of a money pit and I'm hoping to avoid that. Also with rumours of older bikes being charged in London soon, I was taking into account that as well.
Cheers

Will definitely be in place in 2020 for the congestion charge area of London. With some movement on it possibly coming in earlier and being extended to area within North/Soutch circulars.

Ahhhhh the ULEZ !! That makes the change more worthwhile. I've already covered this angle with a 57 CBF1000 & 58 Bandit 650 as I commute every day into London and am buggered if they want to charge £12.50/day for a bike. As said, I've also heard this may come earlier than planned....also heard 2017.
No chance of having 2 bikes then. The FZ6 for commuting and the FZS for a bit of scratching ?
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
