    CB1000R headlight on a FZ1 Gen 2

    Keep in mind the EU kit is plug and play, making that CBR light work will involve chopping up the wiring, custom brackets and so on. If your handy and ready for a few headaches , then go for it.

    Another Newbie Suspension question.

    Lee at Traxxion Dynamics has probably set up more Gen II FZ1 Penske shocks than all other suspension shops combined. Give him a call or send an email. I've never done business with Traxxion Dynamics or Lee but I hear on the forums that Lee is the man you want to speak with. Traxxion Dynamics...

    Headshake from GenII

    Is it really bad , or just a few twitches ? Often minor headshake happens when the front end is skimming the pavement under hard acceleration. Sometimes you just need to relax your grip on the bars a little and hold on with your knees / legs gripping the tank. This often cures minor...

    Ivan's ECU Flash

    Ivan prefers people not discuss his prices online. Just give him a call at Ivans Performance . His website is easy to find. I'd guess the flash is around $300-$400 but really have no idea.

    New York Safety Track Shut Down?

    "Initially, track representatives had assured the town that the facility was “not to be open to the public per se,” attendance would be kept to 25 people and the size of motorcycle engines would be limited to 250cc. Later after the lawsuit was filed, agents for the track said those restrictions...

    New York Safety Track Shut Down?

    The key to preserving racing LIMIT THE NOISE ! Personally I'd love listening to the sweet sounds of screaming engines but most people including my wife and dogs dont. :rofl: I might feel different if I had a house/land to sell close to that track, instant drop in property value for home...

    New bike, takes a couple tries to start.

    I dont see any problem with using it every 10 fill ups or every couple thousand miles to keep the fuel system/injectors clean. Its the people constantly adding alcohol to fuel that already has alcohol in it that I find confusing.

    New bike, takes a couple tries to start.

    My bike often takes 2 attempts once in a while 3 to start when cold. Really don't consider it to be an issue at all. Cycling the key/fuel-pump twice before starting seems to cure that 90% of the time. Ride more worry less, having to hit the starter twice on a cold start is not a big deal :)...

    New bike, takes a couple tries to start.

    I'm not a big fan of SeaFoam for regular use. Maybe once a year to clean up the fuel system/injectors. Lets step back and think about this for a second ............ Everyone hates that we have ethanol added to our fuel now ( alcohol ) it's less efficient, separates, causes issues with water...

    fz1 sucks for touring....

    New seat ( many like the " dirt road seat " ) Higher bars or a cheap set of spacers from ebay Someone offered highway pegs, mounted forward to stretch your legs on the highway. Not sure if they are still available ( try a search ) The right windscreen for you, depends on your height and...
