I would have one tomorrow if something happened to my fazer thou.
I very nearly popped up to the dealer last Sunday to place an order. My impression after a 2hr test ride was that it’s a superb bike.
However, VNA has knee issues again right now. I’m keen on hill walking, so I’m gutted I can’t get out. I’m trying to get them working for me again, but, I might need cash for a private referral. And if a specialist Orthopaedic surgeon can help, well even if I can get it done on the NHS, I’ll not be riding my bike for a while if I’m recovering from knee surgery.
So it’s on hold. Might yet go for it for September, but more likely march - I think.
Even better really if your going for brand new as the first wave of models will be done with so any potential issues should be have been made apparent. Also theres a good chance you'll be able to pick up a pre reg at a discount ?
Or even better a 'nearly new' one with a few thousand miles on it and most of the depreciation taken care of
