And you sir are very welcome! I'm glad you're happy with it, and there's a good supply of parts there. :tup:

Hey BDazzler, I don't know if it was the rider or not, on the VTX. I've been riding since I was a kid, and now I'm 43. I've had all kinds of bikes...and that's the thing about the VTX...ha ha...is it doesn't corner well at all. I had lowered it, yes. But I also kept the suspension fairly firm...

I have had the Raider for about a month or so now...and I've tried registering several times for that board. They will not get back to me, accept me, let me register. I have no idea why on earth they would not want a new member on board, then completely ignore all requests and attempts to...

T84a...that's great you can have one of each! Someday, maybe I'll get to where I can have a dedicated sport bike AND cruiser. That is the best of all, indeed! Very cool you can do that...I can too, in a way, as my wife loves her R6, so I can take that bike down the road from time to time too. I...

Yamaha 2008 FZ1 It's my FZ1 for sale...I traded it for a Raider. It's got about every mod I could do. They're a good dealer, and I bought that bike there new. They'd probably work out a good deal, and you can tell 'em I sent you. - Troy W.

Air box bottom, cut out for air box mod. $38 shipped to lower 48 states. Stock sprocket still available. That's all that's left!

Bump...and new info... Air box is left. $38 shipped to lower 48. Throttle body setup with stock flies. $45 shipped to lower 48 states. SOLD When Paypal paying, please do so as a "gift". Please contact me directly at [email protected] for pics and questions and stuff.

Parts left from the departure of the FZ1: New Corbin pilot seat. So slightly used, Corbin was set to take it as a return. On bike for less than two weeks, not ridden all of those days. The seat is leather, black, new condition. $239 shipped to lower 48. I paid almost $290 just over two weeks...

Set of SV 650 risers. I love these things, but just can't use them with how I need to be set up. I've painted them black, rattle can paint. Shouldn't be a big deal to get it off, or, since I like black, I thought they looked fantastic. This is just the bottoms with bolts, as I used the stock top...

SOLD! Say, did you get it? I hope I can work out a seat/bar/ergo arrangement that works, otherwise, I'll have a 2008 Shift Red FZ1 for sale here soon. I have a bit over 22k miles on it, bought new in 2009, but it's getting harder to ride comfortably. T.

Indeed. And this is the first Corbin that hasn't worked for me. I'll still look at getting one, but next time I need to have it customized, as I have before. This time I just took the standard because it's worked for me on other bikes...but those were cruisers. I emailed you back...enjoy...

Hello folks! I'm selling the Corbin pilot, or driver's, seat that I just got for my gen 2. My behind is apparently too small for how they make this seat, so I'm turning it right around. It's in excellent shape, crosshatch pattern (this is all vinyl), all black. If anyone is interested, $189...

If anyone has a Corbin they want to sell or (partially, I know) trade for stock seat, let me know. I love Corbin seats, and need one for my 2008 FZ1. It's got to be in excellent or mint shape, please. Some people don't like them, I always have. Contact me at [email protected] if you've got...

LOL...I definitely have some strong feelings on this one, and from unfortunate experience. I went from a VTX1800C to a new FZ6 back in 2009. I had the FZ6 for 2 months. Two. I HATED that bike. It's one of the very few, maybe the only bike I've ever hated with such feeling and strength. The rear...

I use RhinoMoto FZ1 threaded bar ends with the CRG Blindsight mirrors, and I'll never go back to the bug antennae. The blindsights are great little mirrors that I can see so much more with than anything I've tried. They're a bit pricey, but really good stuff. Great look too, not too big or odd...
