Some of these bikes are made by slinging an old detuned sportsbike engine into a bendy frame. The result is a bike with huge pulling power accompanied by slightly spongy handling. With the new Fazer 1000 things have moved on again because this is a performance engine in a performance chassis at a performance price.

Estimated Power 85bhp - 140bhp

Top Speed 190kph - 250kph

Price (New) From €10,000 up

Examples Suzuki GSX 1400, Honda CB 1300, Yamaha XJR1300, Kawasaki ZXR 1200, Yamaha Fazer 1000, BMW R1200R

Should I Buy One? If you want grin-making ability in a slightly more comfortable package then yes. The unfaired bikes are popular with people who've got a few points on their licence and hope the windblast will slow them down enough to avoid totting up any more. They offer plenty of performance in a less full-on, demanding way than sportsbikes.
