That should not be a problem. My Fazer now has over 110,000 km (about 69,000 mls) on the clock. Oil change every 7000 mls, adjust valves every 25,000 mls and have fun.
Moto2 rider Luis Salom, born in Palma de Mallorca/Spain, past away today at 4.55 local time after a heavy crash in turn 12 on Barcelona circuit with 25 minutes to go in free practice 2.
Yes, it's a little bit crazy. Most of the new bikes have preload adjust on both sides, adjustable compression damping on one side and rebound on the other. My Fazer8 has too - after installing Öhlins cartridges :)

Some FZ8 owners in the german forum have it. They are all happy with it.
Mine was made by a saddler in Hamburg - for less than half of the price;).

FZ1 shock fits. But it's not so much better. Ohlins fork springs and oil help a little bit.
I have an Ohlins S46 DR1 and Ohlins cartridges:). But 1900 Euro (about 2800 CAD) ... :eek:

Buy a BMW HP4. ABS (now working also in curves), traction control, electronic controlled damping, 5 engine modes, cruise control.
Sometimes i love it all, sometimes i take my Fazer :)
