I'm sure they won't mind, I've never owned an sv at all, so if a lynch mob forms you can flee while they're chasing me down.

looks pretty nice, I hope you will enjoy it. Share any thoughts and maybe some data

Good boy! I have an FZ1 and absolutely love it.

Once you go FZ you never go.... Actually none of this rhymes.

great bike and the best colour scheme for it 8)

I was going to say "Burn the witch" but that's a nice looking bike!

Re: Just brought a new...
 

I agree, I like the retro colour scheme, but then I'm a bit retro myself, I've not tried the 800cc engine and hope they have addressed the mid-range gutlessness of the 600cc lump, looks to be a nice riding position, what sort of weight is it? and where is peak power in the rev range ?

Cheers Mark.

I have to say I'm over the moon with the bike looks and feel wise, very comfortable. its alot heavier than my SV was and noticably smoother up through the gear box, i do miss that intital thump of power you got when you first hit the revs on the SV but over all I'm very happy with my choice, one other thing i feel the FZ8 almost forces you to ride safer as on the SV sometimes with it being so light and thumpy it was almost like an endure bike. I will update further when i have really got used to the bike.
