Is the FZ1 Fazer better as a sport bike or as a tourer?
The Yamaha FZ1 Fazer sits somewhere between sport bike and sport tourer, and the argument over its real nature and best use continues. But others love its versatility, claiming it can eat up highway miles and carve canyons in the same day. Some say it's a jack of all trades, but a master of none—behind sport bikes in performance, and lacking the comfort of true tourers. Comparison to other bikes in both categories is also discussed as well as personal anecdotes about how owners use their FZ1s. Riders report back on modifications that move the bike further in one or the other direction, from touring with luggage to swapping suspension parts for a sportier ride.
This is definitely a sport bike with touring capabilities. It feels too rowdy to be a relaxed tourer, but is comfortable enough to spend long days in the saddle.
