Awesome thanks NJFZ1! Its supposed to be 83 and Sunny. I can't wait. I am planning to order new front tires next week.

Hey everyone, thanks for all your help. I kinda forgot to write what I had found. It was the front brakes, I just adjusted all nuts and bolts up front and found it was the brake calipers. All is well now and had the shop confirm it.

Hey everyone!! Hey I have an 09 FZ1 w/ 8000 miles on it. The front tire is a Mich Pilot Road also with 8000 miles on it. I want to ride in a benefit ride tomorrow that is just over 300 miles. The tire has even wear across it that is right at the wear bar. There is a small spot that is a bit...

Awesome thanks! I will get right on that and hopefully that will do the job!

Thanks guys, I will try that I need to go grab a torque wrench and check all the nuts and bolts up front to make sure they are all tight to specs. I will also check my front rotor and pads closely. Any idea where I could find ft/lb specs? Or is it ok to just torque it to what feels right to me?

Hey everyone, I have a 2009 FZ1 with 7000 miles on it. I dont ride it real hard and I have recently started hearing a slight click when moving forward. This happens at slow speeds and is easily heard when engine is off and pushing bike forward in neutral. I have seen other posts of gixxers...

I'll be riding mine, let me know if you will be riding!

I bought my 09 FZ1 February 09 and I currently have 5700 miles on it. Runs beautiful. This is my first MN winter coming up since I bought her and I will miss her. I Rode all winter long in Colorado on my FZ6.

my bike actually came with 190's from the dealer new. They look fine and corner amazing. They are Pilot Roads. I love em!

Hey guys, I have an 09 FZ1 and I love it. But im moving and have a 16 foot moving truck to move with. It only has wood side rails which would hold the bike up but I would prefer tie downs on the floor. Any one ever tied to the side rails? Would that safely keep the bike up and not scratch it...
