Yamaha FZS1000 Fazer (2000 - 2005)

Our Review

Reviewed: by Visordown
The Fazer has all the ingredients to make a great stunt bike. An engine taken from the ’99 R1, an upright riding position with big wide bars and an equally wide balance point once the front wheel is lofted all make it hard to keep a good wheelie down. For ...  Continue reading

a do all bike ,that after over 4 years of ownership , still makes me smile !

get the carbs "ivanised " and the already smooth engine is even better with improved low/midrange and a big whack at the topend , resulting in a true 140 bhp at the wheel !

the FZS is a much better bike allround than the later more focused model
