Advantages: fast, fun

Disadvantages: none

This was my first 'big' bike after passing my test this year. The bike is exceptional value for money, its fast but not too fast for a new rider. The Fazer cuts through traffic with ease and returns about 200 miles to a tank of fuel.

Build quality is good, there are no real problems with it but need to see how the bike stands up after the winter. Since owning the bike I have done about 6000 miles and the only cost has been some new tyers. The bike eats up the miles and is very comfortable even after three hours riding, it could go on further but I needed coffee so had to take a break.

If you are looking for a first step into the world of larger bikes that are capable and fun then you could not go wrong with a Fazer. I sometimes think about chaninging it for a larger bike but so far I can not find a reason to get rid of the Fazer
