[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 1048468, member: 20220"] Exactly! One of my favorite quotes is "If I can only have one bike, it's the FZ1. If I can have lots of bikes, none will be an FZ1." Basically, the FZ1 fits the bill for a lot of bikes. Touring, sporting, whatever you need, it'll pretty much do it. Heck, I've even ridden dirt roads in Colorado on my old one. But the sad thing is that it's a jack of all trades, master of none. It doesn't excel in any of the areas it does well at. So if you can afford a sport bike and a touring bike then you've pretty well covered the areas the FZ1 does well at but those bikes will do their thing better. I sold my FZ1 because that's my eventual plan. I got the FJR to handle my commuting and touring duties. Next will be covering the sporting duties.
