1986 Yamaha FZX700 Fazer review from United States of America
"An amazing machine"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing so far.
General comments?
This is an amazing motorcycle, way ahead of its time. The acceleration from this engine is unreal, you have power in every gear in almost every RPM range, not to mention the sound that this engine makes puts a smile on your face.
A real sharp looker as well; you just don't see a motorcycle like this anymore, you get sportbike performance but with a standard seating position comfort.
Handling and braking are great when you consider when this motorcycle was manufactured, it's 22 years old. This bike will run circles around most of the newer bikes made today.
If you can find one with not too many miles and in decent shape, pick it up, you will not be disappointed.
