FZ1 is a nice looking bike.I believe its a Fazer when it has the fairing with double headlights

[Guest Guest]

not a fazer or it would be called a fazer lol... it's an R1 engine in a sport tourer style frame. Mate had one, goes like stink and I'd have one.

The bandit is an iconic motorbike but still qiute bruteish to the more defined bikes of today,

What I meant to say is a fooking fazor ha ha ha

nope... that's the fz1 fazer not the fz1 which are different bikes. Same series... different models

I'd have the fz1 but not the fazer. Just for preference reasons.. my mate had a fazer 600 and loved it. I hear good things but reckon if given the choice between bandit and fazer, I'd go with the bandit. I have a fzr6 and compared to the bandit6, it's gutless.

I know the difference.I had an '07 FZ6 and people kept calling that a Fazer.Did not like the FZ6,terrible fuelling but now got a 99 Fazer 600,much better bike and a lot more go than a B6 I used to own

I test rode the FZ1, and liked that a lot. But I bought a fazer.

I rolled past 26,000 miles on my fazer that I bought new in 2007 last night. I like it a lot. I prefer it in every respect to the Hornet that I used to have. But, it is a bit thirsty, if it wasn't I'd have more miles on the clock by now. 35mpg tops.

It's good for track days, drag racing, touring, commuting. Bit cramped 2 up, but wife has her own bike now. Laid back slow riding (when with wife on her Suzuki vanvan). Best all round bike I have owned, and I don't drive, so.

Valve clearances did need doing, a little while ago, but apart from that, never had any real problems with it. Well, I did clean it once, and it stopped working properly.

It's a right pain to change the spark plugs, I got a garage to do it.
