You mentioned a VFR. I had a VFR 750, pre vtec VFR 800, and an 1100 Goldwing Interstate. The first gen FZ1 pulls so much differently. You can tamely run around town, then later dislocate your shoulders. It's a fine bike and my first inline four.

Man I want one!! I nearly purchased a 2024 Katana but I got pre purchase sticker shock and I took a step back. Anyway I drove a Gen 1 "Fazer" for many years and sold it for money for my daughter a car about three years ago. Anyway I made a mistake, and then tried to cover it up by purchasing a cheap bike, Lifan kpm 200, and although there's nothing wrong with it, I was totally spoiled with 150+ hp, and I can't stop dreaming about it lol! Anyway, I always wanted a gen 2 after I had the Gen 1, just a better looking bike and fuel injection. Love your reactions man, I hope you didn't destroy your pants there 😂😂😂

Got a 2009 Fz6r Raven as my first sport bike. Compared to 750cc & 1100cc cruisers, this bike feels like it will throw you off with the acceleration. I was scared I'd accidentally wheelie. Love it.

I have a 2002 with 20,000 miles on it and I've had it to 160mph with a good bit of throttle left. If it won't hit 200mph it could get close to it for sure. It's a great bike and I don't mind it being a little heavy bcs it is really comfortable and stable on the road.

What had he ridden before this - maybe 110 cc scooter ?? Rode just one of my these in city streets few years ago ; not a long ride and never got it on the open road . However , after owning a 98 yr R1, the FZ felt much softer , mellower and of coarse comfortable But a lot less of the sheer thrill I got from my R10
