Update on FZ1 Windshields Sorry 'bout the delay. I actually sold the FZ1 on a whim after a "nice" stop by a CHP on a hot Beemer. It might've been my grey hair (I took my helmet off) or my "just having prayed" smile (I often give thanks while riding), but he just gave me a kind verbal for 20+...

Me, too! Hi! I just bought one, too. It's used, with 4050 miles on it. I was taking my Ninja 650 in for its first service, thinking it was a nice bike, but lacked oomph. While waiting, I saw two 2008 FZ1s, grey and red. The red had farkles I liked, but grey was more my style (smoother...

Know what you Mean! Yeah; I'm 63 and have had well over 35 bikes in my life. I, too sold a DL-650 to get the FZ1. Mainly I didn't like the looks, though my silver one wasn't that bad. That style bike seems klunky. Having said that, I've seen and liked the '11 all-black DL. I...

Nice job! What windshield is that & how do you like it?
