I'll be trading my 08 Bandit 1250 for an FZ8. I'm also looking at the BMW
F800R. I've checked out both bikes (friend has a dealership that sells both) and lean a bit more toward the FZ8. The FZ will be about 4 grand less OTD, the BMW has a 3 year warranty but Yamaha offers a 3 year warranty for about $500. If the FZ had a decent paint job (I don't really care for the gray Matte finish), I would be completely sold on it. I guess I could always get it repainted....... Comments please.
