If I decide that the new Speed Triple isn't too my taste, then I think that this will be on my shopping list. It's only £4699, so much, much cheaper than the Triple too.

But it's a Fazer.

A serious lack of midrange on the new FZ6, not a problem if you keep the revs high and like that IL4 scream.
Does look good tho, sort of like a speed 4

Yes, I'd prefer good midrange, which is what the Triple has in spades. However, the £3,000 price difference between the two might just swing it. I won't decide until I've test ridden the Triple. It may be that the Triumph has too much power to be fun on normal roads.

If you are having test rides have a go on the Kwak Z750S ,pretty basic but I consider it good value for money

At the end of the day its what you like that counts

We had an irregular from the Massive turn up on a shiny new one of these on Friday - traded in his Cagiva Raptor for it. He said it looked nice and it started every time, even in the wet, but it was soulless.

He whised he;d gone for a naked SV thou instead and was off to see if he could track down his old bike yesterday.

I'd look at a naked SV Thou' before a Faser... The Faser is not the sort of bike you want to keep on the boil, unless you intend on gunning it everywhere. SV Thou makes much more sense and is a good backage too. It'll sound better too. Stick a touring seat and a few other bits on it and you'll have youself a real nice all rounder.

More of a courier bike that,,,

That's the 600, isn't it? Looks nice but no midrange.

They're bringing out a 1000cc one before too long, with the current Fazer 1000 engine. Much better

Fair doos, it looks good in black, though.
