The Shock Tube
Hi,
I came up with the idea, as no one makes a rear shock protector for road going bikes!

Hi my new 2008 NA, UK bike came with Michelin Pilot Road tyres, having ridden in both wet and dry with and without a pillion, i must say i am impresed with the tyers, and will be replacing with a new set of the same when that time comes.

Totally agree! simply AWSOME. I have had over 20 bikes over the years including: A CB900F, GS1000,GPZ600R,ZX6RR,ZX12R,2004 R1, and the FZ1 NA is fantastic, it does everything very well.
Cheers

Hi, I have just had my first service at 700 miles, (last week) and the dealer used Silkoline T4 Fully Synthetic £10.00 per liter! they reccomend this oil with this bike.
I have had NO side effects with the oil NO clutch slip etc.

Hi here is my new 2008 FZ1 ABS.
will be fitting new PAZZO levers very soon, and K&N filter, but nothing else.
I think the standard pipe is quite nice, so i don't want to change it yet.
