Looks nice. It should be absolutely mint as it's pricey.
If it's broken, it's not fixed.

I paid 3.5k for my gen1 earlier this year, top money I know but the bike is a 56 plate with 8000 miles on & in near mint condition
I am well pleased with it, apart from the rock hard seat :lol but Tony Archer will sort that out for me over the winter
Enjoy your new ride Smile

Cheers Tim

I personally think people on here talk down the prices a bit too much. (it should actually be the opposite)


Bikes will find there own market value (or be manipulated by dealers), but you often see them at £3.5K for a 2003-2005, in dealers without those extras.


I was looking at a new BMW this summer and was offered £2.8K as a trade in for my 21K mile 2004 American import.


Every seller wants as much as possible and every buyer wants it as cheap as possible, somewhere in between will be the selling price.


As long as you are happy with the bike just ride and enjoy.


Here is mine (and I am not selling it)

I agree with Nickodemon.....the fazer is worthy of much more and just because some folk got good deals doesnt mean that every fazer should be under priced.


I paid ott for my trx fighter....was difficult to even guage what it was worth....but i wanted it....and im really happy with it, that's the main thing.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

  I had Tony Archer do my seat, 1st rate job,just re foamed it, no gel, world of difference. When I went to pick it up I couldn't believe the job he had done for the price
