Tell you the truth mate other manfufacturers make bikes far more suitable for this for similar money. Having ridden a FZ6 fazer 500 miles in one day i can say that it is not a good long distance. The vibrations through the bars at motorway speeds while bearable at first dont hae give a weird unpleasant tingly feeling after an hour or so. You also say you dont want to race, well if you buy this bike your gonna feel like you are all the time. To get it to go requires alot of revs and alot of gear changing which can get annoying if your not in the mood for a thrash. The engine is completely out of place in the softly sprung chassis. Also the build quality on the newer ones is absolutely diabolical. Maybe im a bit skewed but mine was the worst bike ive ever had the displeasure of owning. Designed for the european market and not for us brits. What you need to look for is one of the last fazers with the thundercat engine ie 2001-2003. Look for pointy front fairing but no underseat cans. This is a far superior bike in every way IMHO. I know of an immaculate showroom condition 02 model at bridge motorcycles in exeter in yellow and black for £3199. Its a steal quite frankly and difficult to distinguish from new.

Lucky you mate, very very capable machine, more so than the current R6 truth be told... Added bonus now you get to join in with the all time favorite game of suzuki riders everywhere played at bike events across the nation........ Dude which of these 200 identical gixxers is mine lol

New to the forums. Im 20 from plymouth in the southwest of England. Finally got my dream yamaha (I wanted a YZF since i was 5 and saw it at the local dealers with my dad) about a year ago but only just decided to join up and chat with like minded yammy loving peoples. All my friends ride kawasakis so i need some relief from the constant trash talk lol. How is everyone?? Few piccies of my bike taken today hope you like... "Rubber side down?
