That's a slick looking Indian Mike. How does that exhaust sound? It looks knarley!!!

I understand what you're saying now. But at the same token, I don't see an electrical issue stopping the bike from being in gear or locking the shift mechanism. I will say that the cracked spark plug I had was literally brand new when it failed. Which is why I didn't check them until finally...

I had a similar to this issue with my GenI when I had it a few years back. It wound up being a crack in the porcelain in one of the spark plugs which started arching against the cylinder head. It had practically the same symptoms as you are stating here. Just a thought.

Not sure what you mean by "Split Seat". Do you mean separate passenger and driver seat? By the way, welcome to the forum. Billy.

For me, a stock bike with just a slip on, and looking to wake it up a bunch, invest in a Power Commander and send your ECU out to be reflashed. You can send it to Ivan with a quick turn around time and only would need to install a higher flowing air filter, load a map which Ivan would supply you...

Glad you're enjoying the heck out of her Jeff! Sick looking bike. I'm patiently waiting for Bogie's next ride.

Roger that!! Duly noted. Thanks for the tips.

Disregard that last post. I just figured out that I asked you on the other thread. Hahaha!!

Jesus! I could have sworn that I posted here yesterday but it seems my post has vanished. Hey Jeff, nice job. How hard was it exactly to swap out the old one? I'm thinking that I should get this done before having any mishaps. Thanks.

Morning Jeff. Hey bud, on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being an easy job, what would you rate the replacement of the stator?? My 09' seems to be fine but I keep seeing posts here and on FB about them letting go so I might as well replace mine now instead of waiting for a mishap.

Nice purchase! I like that shade of gold on the wheels. That olive looking color they came out with in 09' was horrible. Good luck with the new ride!

Welcome Ari congrats on whatever bike you decide to get. Did the deal go through on the 02'?

I don't see that it was checked for a kinked fuel line under the tank from raising and lowering it while wrenching. That was a common issue with the stuttering and fuel delivery issues. Just a thought.

Run like the wind!!! Engine light from a shock replacement?? I think not. If that was the case there would be a whole lotta check engine lights on out there! Hahaha!

It's doing exactly what a GenI is supposed to do. Once you reach that 7K plus, hold onto your bars!! No matter what the dyno charts shows, that is normal running conditions from a first Gen FZ1.

Unfortunately I don't even think the company that was making them originally exists anymore. Your best bet is to go on the FZ1 Facebook page and post that you are looking. There may be someone out there that is willing to part with the set. Just make sure that they have all the hardware and...

What year bike is it? Carbs or fuel injected?

I'm curious to know if you had the tank up when changing the clutch wire. Check and make sure your fuel line hasn't kinked as it is a common occurrence with the second Gen bikes.

You can find Ivan's kit here..... Ivan's Performance Products The kit he sells makes a huge difference in rideability and smoothness. It's a worthwhile deal if you're planning on keeping the bike for a while.

Glad to have you aboard. Congrats on the FZ1.
