    Check plugs every 4K ????? (repost from the "other" board.

    Yea that's what I'm thinking....from now on. So the bike will get a new set of plugs a tad early, fresh coolant, and I noticed some increased buzzing around 5K so a TB sync. The rest is cake...and I'll be less inclined to touch the plugs for atleast 8K from here on out. Thanks for everyone's...

    Check plugs every 4K ????? (repost from the "other" board.

    Sorry for the repost if you're on the "other" board but I'm lookin' for a big audience to hear what other FZ owners are doing. This is the first Yamaha head scratcher for me... Ok, so I bought my '08 back in December of '09 and am finally hitting 5K. I had to adjust the clock after a battery...

    Mesh jackets what's your recommendation?

    Buy a stitch jacket. I make a run down to Laguna every year from WA state and we hit triple digits for a few days on the way down. I have underarmour with mesh shorts on under a stitch 2 piece and a camelbak. I'm completely comfy upto a bout 95 and then as long as I'm moving it's reasonable. The...

    Kinked fuel line

    FYI...you can see my post on getting a kinked line from the factory when I bought her new. The line is supposed to move to prevent kinking..so if you don't make sure it's not binding up it'll kink after repeated tank raises. Many modern Fi bikes have lines like that...I personally think the line...

    Air Box Mod?

    I did it...just cut off the snorkel pretty much just like Lars's docs. I left the stock filter alone and didn't move cables. I started it and it sounded a bit better...not too throaty but less like a sewing machine and more like a motorcycle. I'll ride it tomorrow for a better idea of any...

    Air Box Mod?

    Screw it...I'm doing it. I'm ripping the bike apart to put a Powerlet in the dash anyway so I may as well just pull the air box and get er done. I'll report back....she's bone stock and staying that way minus some air box plastic for now ;) Not time yet for perf mods...

    Air Box Mod?

    Oh come on...don't take it personally, just personal opinion all based on experience from multiple bikes and other people as well. I think you gotta put all the factors in this to really show if stock and aftermarket make a difference. If the snorkel/airbox is totally restrictive then changing...

    Air Box Mod?

    Ok I have a few questions/comments before I take the plunge...I'm almost there. First, has anyone had any surging or mixture issues after the mod on a completely stock bike ? I'm assuming not since the paper element isn't changing but wanted to ask anyway before I hack up my airbox...

    Plug it and it'll be fine for awhile. I've been plugging for years without any issues in all weather and even on extended trips...no issues. Buy a plug kit and you're set...I carry all that crap on every trip just in case. I rode on a plug from WA to CA one year with no issues...riding the hell...

    Front Stands

    Yes...I have a PitBull front stand, their "S" pin, the little screw hanging out a bit, and some gorilla tape over the top to prevent scratching from the screw. PitBull is horrible with their pins as stated on their website but this one seems to work...I changed my front tire out last week and it...

    Went to a concert last night

    Thanks for the post but I got that beat. I saw Soundgarden last week in a private show in Seattle. You had to know someone to get in and it was damn near the best show I have ever seen....I'm still smiling it was so damn good.

    Better mileage for FZ1??

    I you want better fuel economy you should have bought a 250 or something. The FZ is a liter bike and the tank is small on the 2nd Gen's. I get 41's which is awesome for a liter bike...so I don't know what to tell you. I'm bone stock...and if I start messing with intake,FI, and exhaust my mileage...
