I have and 08 FZ1. I first started modding with the TRC slip on and the AIS block off. The sound was great but I was still getting a little decel popping and a pop right after I would change the gears and re-apply the throttle. So I did a little digging and went to Ivan's website. The...
What Locktite threadlocker are you guys using to hold the screws in on the subthrottle plates. I've got some "Blue" which is low strength. Do I need the high strength "Red". I'm pretty sure there's a medium strength red also. Also, where is the section on this forum for all the available...
Can a FCE help fix my acceleration popping. It only happens between gears, just once in a awhile. I do have a Yoshi TRC slip on and I also have AIS block off plates installed. I don't get any decel popping. My bike is an 08 with no other mods except slip on and block off. Thanks.
Please...
Anybody have a "How To" on TB Syncing on a Gen II FZ1. I've got Mercury sticks and have done it on Carbed bikes. Is the 08 FZ1 adjusted mechanically or electronically. Guess I just need to get a Manual.
Thinking about going ahead and doing the block off while waiting to get a slip on. That way it can already be done once I get my exhaust. Any harm in doing this while still having the stock can installed?
When you guys plug the line coming from the airbox, are you also disconnecting the AIS pump. If not, will it eventually burn the pump up? Give you codes? Also, if I decided to do the Graves block off plates instead, can anyone show me a pic where they go?
For you folks that installed this Carbon fiber slip on. If you do the slip on alone, without airfilter or PC3, did the bike still run okay. If you gut the Cat while changing the exhaust, does that hurt anything. Hows this pipe sound? Hard to tell off of YouTube. I'll do the other Mods later...
Looking to put on a slip on exhaust. Not necessarily for more power, just a good low gutteral tone. If you just put on an exhaust, do you really need to retune the bike? I don't want decel backfiring. Seems like on some of these slip ons, you get rid of the exhaust valve. Does disconnecting...
What a cool bike! It's a 2008 Gray with gold wheels. By far one of the neatest bikes I've had.
2004 Honda VTX 1300-Nice, but underpowered. Take it or leave it.
2006 Suzuki M109R-Highly modded, Lots O torque but heavy as hell. Shifted like a tractor.
2008 Aprilia Shiver-Cool little...
Are the vibs that bad through the handlebars. Before I go plopping down money on an FZ1 I just thought I'd ask. I ride 70 miles to get to work. I don't really want numb hands everytime I ride. It's an 08 that I'm looking at. Anybody have a Honda Interceptor? Are they smoother than the FZ1?
There's an 08 FZ1 available with 2,200 miles on in. They were asking $6,400. They said they'd take $6,200. It's mint with all the service docs. What do you guys think?
Ready to try and find an 07, 08, or 09 FZ1. Preferrably black or Gray. What's the going price for new and used. I've seen a new one (09) for $6,999. I just didn't want the blue color. Gettin excited now! I've also considered an 08 Honda Interceptor but the seating position is a little...
How is the shifting on an 06-08 FZ1? Would you consider it smooth? I used to have a Suzuki M109R and it shifted like a tank between first and second. So loud babies would cry.:D
Hello, I'm new to this forum. I ride a 08 Aprilia Shiver at this time but I'm worried about reliability for the long term and I'm considering on selling it and getting a used 06 FZ1. What are you folks thoughts. I have heard about some issues with this year (06) with the FI. Is this...
