    NCBIKE 2013 video and report

    NCBIKE is a vehicle testing facility so all of the turns are pretty flat and constant radius. There are a few at the end that have a little elevation change in the middle but its a great track for a first track day. My first track day was CMP in south carolina then I did VIR south and NCBIKE...

    New member that is curious

    I have an 07 and I must be doing something wrong :D I can honestly say that I have NEVER had the front wheel come up more than 6" under hard acceleration and that was after shifting into second at 11k rpm! Its probably one of the best features of this bike IMHO. I feel perfectly comfortable...

    What would you want to see in a Gen III FZ1??

    Im with you with the exception of the ZX14 power. I would love to have the crossplane engine even if it is detuned a little. I have good low-midrange torque but I know that that crosplane engine could get 80 ft-lbs! That would be AWESOME!! They could do an "R" version that has the radial...

    Rabbitman's Mod Central

    I really like the headlights and the color. The red stripes on the shrouds to make them look like eyeballs is super bad ass!! Im curious about how they work at night now? I have projectors on my Sprint ST (from the factory) and when getting on an on-ramp I cant see anything in the curve...

    Rear Set selection

    I would love to see the Vortex sets installed since thats the way I think Im leaning. Im NOT leaning towards the Rizomas anymore after these posts so I appreciate the input. I'll look into those Giles rearsets a little more too since they are less than $500 which is nice and they seem to...

    Rear Set selection

    Thats interesting. The Lightech's dont seem to have as much adjustability as the Rizoma's with regards to foot peg position. How has that worked out for the people you know? The other thing that concerns me about all of these is the fact that I cant tell if I will "have" to buy another brake...

    What did you do to your FZ today?

    I have to say that through every step of every modification I did I relied heavily on this forum to provide me with the info and even step-by-step pictures and descriptions of how to do it all. Without you guys I could never have done all this myself ::worship: Here is the "almost" finished...

    What did you do to your FZ today?

    I didnt do all of this today but since I had to remove everything to get it painted I decided to do a little work while the plastic was off: First was the AIS block off: Then there was the Lars airbox mod: Next was the sub-throttle plates: Then I added Ivans FCE which...

    Rear Set selection

    Well it appears that since the last time I looked there are several more options out there for the Gen II with regards to rear sets. I thought the only choice was Rizoma and they were just too pricey for me. I found these that look bad ass and I was wondering if anyone knows anything about...
