Wow, it's been a long time. How is everybody? :cheers: Still loving the FZ1, and got a Two Brothers exhaust recently. Which brings me to my topic. The P1 sound suppression tip. This is an add-on that costs about $30 and installs between the pipe end and the outlet flange.
I tested the sound...
Well, I've gotten a few emails that said I should come back to FZ1-Forum, but I never really left :party0011:, just not much to say. Loving the bike, had it for 10 months now. I set aside my tax return to get an exhaust, and spent it on a new helmet instead. : oops: But I love it - I finally...
So are there any slip-ons out there that are made to work with the EXUP in place?
If I went with a new pipe, I'd hate myself if I lost an inch-pound of low end torque, which is the reason the EXUP is there. (?).
By a wide margin, my least favorite was this cherry 2007 VTX-1800 Spec-3. I thought I wanted to go cruising again after owning a Bandit for 7 years. So anyway, $7000 later I'm on Honda's flagship cruiser. I owned it for 8 months.
Comfortable at a standstill and up to 10MPH. At highway speeds...
Finally, a crisp day down here deep in Florida. A bone chilling 62 for a high today. Been hotter than heck lately. We had one decent week in October but otherwise it's been summer since early March.
Just waiting 'till it gets above 55 so I can suit up and head out. I'm psyched...
I don't like to apply products to my motorcycle tires, like Armor-All or TireBlack for obvious reasons, plus shiny motorcycle tires just look wrong. Is there a washing method or soap you can recommend for getting the brown look off tires and make 'em look flat black again. Have you tried any...

My levers arrived in four days as mentioned in the above thread, which I think is great considering they came from Hong Kong.
The box was in pretty bad shape (1st picture) but no matter, they were well packaged (2nd picture)...
When I got my FZ1 a little over a month ago, I was impressed with the lack of disturbing fairing buzzes and cheap-sounding rattles around the plastics like my Bandit had. However, now as the miles are stacking up, she's starting to exhibit some of those traits, especially rattling over railroads...
Has anyone seen an FZ1 G2 with a painted frame (other than black of course)? I think it might look neat, in the cobalt or gray. The red might be a little loud.
I was going to photoshop mine but my wife wasn't home. :surrender:
I did the first oil change a while back and noticed in the bottom of my drip pan, after I drained it, there were little gold flakes. Maybe 50 or so flakes that looked like they came out of Goldschlagger (if you know what that is :cloud9:).
Anyway, has anyone seen this? Possibly important - I...
Just got a new 2009 Cobalt Blue!
Newb to the FZ1 but not riding. Came off a Bandit 1200 for 7 years :shoot:, then a very short stint on a VTX1800F :tdown: when I thought I wanted to go cruising. :zzz: I've had 5 or 6 other bikes before the Bandit.
Just wanted to say Hi! :cheers: This forum...
