I've owned this bike from new, mainly used for touring and rides out with the wife as have an fz1 for Sundays out with the lads. Not had any major problems apart from the rear cylinder exhaust cracking just before out euro tour this year but I fixed it and away atm and again the bike is just awesome, handles everything even when fully loaded 2 up. The 36k service will be needed when back but will be a keeper and more than happy to put another 36k miles and more and tour with it every year in Europe
