FZ1S or Fazer 8

[Carlsv8]

Would be interested to hear your views of the Crossrunner as it is on my list of possible next bikes...


Thanks

Hello Jonesy
Assuming it's the new model you are after because that's what I had. 50 mpg easy, handle really well, comfortable , good 2 up, amazing lights, fast, sounds great, easy to ride.
Bad points, horrendous screen turbulence, get a really good test ride to make sure you can live with it, a set of Powerbronze screen adjusters and an aftermarket screen are a must, check out the crossrunner forum for loads of discussions as this is a known problem, heavy to push about but light to ride, too dear so be prepared to lose a lot of cash if you buy new. The v4 affected the nerves in my arm a bit. The horn and indicator buttons are the wrong way round.
To sum up, excellent, horrendous screen turbulence and too dear new, hope this helps.
Carl
