3B, I have an XL Arai and it will NOT fit. I also have an XL HJC that is a super tight fit. As far a quality goes, I am not pleased. The cases come with a bungie cord that has a plastic buckle. That buckle broke in the first month. There is a cord that keeps the door from dropping all the...

I think he did. Also the "Go Advanced" worked for me. thanks

I have a typo in the subject of a thread I just started. Is there any way to edit the subject? Should be compare not compate.

Fun Ride and Compare Seats? I have had my FZ1 for a few months and love it. By far the most fun bike, for my tastes of course, that I have ever owned. There are two things I would like to change, meeting more riders in the central Texas area and get a better seat. I know there are tons of...

Yes, yes, keep these comments coming. :) 2wheel: I agree about gear indicator. Here is a link to the bike. All the pics have the seat I have yet to try. 2009 Yamaha FZ1 in Austin TX from Whiteside Motors

Folks, Sorry for the long post, I guess sometimes I am just wordy. I am hoping to get some advice so I can actually buy the bike since I'm droolin'! I test rode a used 09 FZ1 today. The bike was fantastic and I got almost everything I was hoping for in the ride. It was a relatively light...
