No doubt it will run better with the PCIII, but if you want to do the mods now and add it later you can...

    East central IL-West central IN

    "I'm in love with the electric adjustable windshield." Me too! Had to make myself stop playing with it so I could enjoy other aspects of the bike. It was so nice to be able to go full on car windshield down to an almost naked version with hardly any wind protection in about 3 seconds, while...

    Favorite .22LR Tactical Rifle

    Nothing beats a Colt I was recently in the market for the same gun. I had just finished my RR AR build and came in under budget, so i figured i would add a dedicated .22lr AR platform to the collection. I shot the Mossberg Plinkster but it was extremely picky on ammo. It also was the cheapest...

    FS: Like New Gen II Corbin Pilot Seat

    Like New black leather Corbin pilot seat, with Less than 200 miles on it. Im asking $225.00 shipped (lower 48). I just paid 275.00 plus shipping, but my loss can be your gain! It is a comfortable and supportive seat but it just isn't for me. I'm short and the wider seat puts my feet further from...

    What Seat Do You Use? (Gen II)

    How to politely say, "you'll never ride my FZ1."

    Same thing I say, i even tell them I'll take a check! I know the ones asking cant afford it so its always "thanks anyway". Now others like my Dad, Uncle and a few other older guys that have their own bikes that I ride with I don't mind at all. I know they have the cash, insurance and loaner...
