I don't buy bikes with more than 1,000 miles on them. I'd go brand new if a) I could afford to, and b) there were actually any new bikes on the market that I actually like.

First impressions of the Baby Fazer have not been favorable so far, but I'll give it a little more time before I submit a final judgement.

Get rid of that centerstand ASAP!

Sweet ride. Can you bolt up R6 suspension goodies?

Agreed, centerstands are one of the greatest inventions EVAR. What turned me away from the ninja 1000 was the lack of one and no way to realy install one

That's not really the direction I'm heading with this thing. I already have an SV with GSXR bits for the mountains. The FZ is getting Givi hard bags.

If I keep it...
