SALE PENDING: Black '07 FZ1 (Ohio) SOLD This is somewhat of a feeler ad. I don't need to sell the bike but I'm considering selling it to pay off some other bills. I bought the bike this year over the 4th of July weekend from a local Yamaha dealership. It had just under 4,200 miles and came...

No, the stock tires are the Pilot Roads. Pilot power is a much softer, performance tire. 6k is actually a lot for a Power. Most people only get 3-5k out of them from what I've read.

The Pilot Road 2 is supposed to be good for all of the above. I ordered the taller, 190/55 and just installed it today. Looks like it will be excellent for the handling/lean angle that you're talking about. I managed to wear my rear Shinko 009 down to the cords in the center in only 4200...

I was going to ask them to match the price. My first question was "is it possible to cancel my order?" She said "let me check" and placed me on hold for a minute. When she came back, she said "yep, no problem, you order has been canceled." So I never really got to ask my next question as to...

Seriously?? I just ordered a 190/55 PR2 from Dennis Kirk about 2 hours ago. $171 OTD and this deal would have been $154 OTD. Edit: DK was nice enough to let me cancel my order. The 190/55 from Motorcycle Superstore ended up being $161.09 OTD

I just bought my first helmet about a year ago and it was the EXO-400. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it's comfortable and I like it a lot. I've been looking at the 1000 for awhile because I like the idea of the flip-down 1/2 shield. Plus I bought my 400 two sizes too large, not...

Someone posted this on the other forum. I just ordered 2 of these. One for myself, and one for buddy. Only available in this 1 color at this price but I thought I'd pass it along. Scorpion EXO-1000 Apollo Matte Anthracite Helmet from SportbikeTrackGear.com

I have the FCE on my '07 and like it. I don't think the bike was terrible before, but it's definitely smoother now. However, the thing I like about it the most is that it COMPLETELY eliminated the popping from the exhaust on decel. Even with the AIS blocked off and Power Commander, there was...

I opted for the PCV for my '07. It's about 1/2 the size of the PCIII so it's easier to find space for it. Also, on the PCIII, you have to have a 9V battery connected to the unit if you want to change maps without the bike turned on. No need on the PCV. I got my new PCV for $277, which was...

If anything, shortening the pipe would reduce back pressure and could increase power. I highly doubt it will make much of a difference at all. I doubt you will need to make adjustments to your fueling. All slip ons are basically the same straight-through design and they come in varying...

Are you trying this with the engine started or shut off? I had to set those points with the engine running because the TPS wouldn't register with the engine off (even with the ignition on). I also updated the firmware on my PCV when I got it which seemed to make it respond differently to the...

Just realized I may have posted in the wrong section but the info should apply to an FZ1 also, since they use the same size front tire. Lol

Hi All. My Buddy has a 2005 R6 and accidentally ordered a 60 front tire instead of a 70 from jakewilson.com. We were planning to change his tires tomorrow because we have a group ride on Sunday. I'm guessing it's just going to drop the front of the bike slightly? Is there any reason why...

Here's my post at the other forum if you want to read it too: Clicking under part throttle? - FZ1OA Message Board

Yeah my noise is definitely not the brakes. I still have no idea what the sound is! I posted the same topic at the FZ1oa forum also and got more suggestions but nothing matched up. I'm still very curious what the noise is but I'm not too concerned about it. Just surprised nobody else (except...

I was looking at that today and thought that might work. Thanks for the confirmation!

Update: I just installed the Buell lowering pegs. Seems like it will be a change for the better although I feel very aware that my feet are closer to the ground now and feel like I'm going to be dragging pegs unexpectedely now. I took the feelers off. I'm sure it will just take some getting...

Yep, stock speedo is off by about 5%.

Here it is: Next challenge: Your bike with the full moon in the background. P.S. Don't get too creative with your interpretation of "full moon" here folks. :th_smiley_rotfl2[1]
