But as in life, you can't demonise the "approximate 3/4 litre" concept of the FZ-8 by quickly leafing through the data sheets. That would be a shame, because the 8 has given us a lot of pleasure in the 3,200 kilometres we have covered so far. Contrary to the facts, the 800 is probably the best choice for the average ambitious rider.

Stable and stable

chassis relatively universal

large variety of accessories

acceptable performance

Footrest detent insert sets too early and brings unsteadiness into the chassis - as well as scraping on the ground

ugly exhaust

a bit cumbersome
