    Can I borrow a stock gen 2 seat?

    I'm sending my seat off to be redone, and I was wondering if anyone near northeast MA would lend me a stock Gen 2 seat for a few days? I'd like to keep my downtime to a minimum. Thanks all!

    My chopped and blacked out stock windscreen

    I'll get a closer up pic soon, but that is how she sits now. The screen is chopped just about down to the fairing line, maybe a touch higher. I just rode for 30 or so miles and the air is hitting me square in the helmet/neck/chest area, just what I wanted. I'll report back with highway speeds...

    My painted stock screen and custom mirror block off plates

    Last week I decided to paint the inside of my stock screen a semi gloss black, and make some mirror block off plates (I run bar end mirrors, WAY better than stock). The result: All I did with the screen is clean it REALLY well and tape off the rounded "edge" that runs the top portion of the...

    I made two Gen 2 quick reference images (oil change and chain adjustment)

    I wanted to keep a copy of the oil change and chain adjustment pages from the owners manual handy (I like having the torque values, fluid quantities, quickly accessible digitally). Using screen shots of the owners manual PDF and photoshop I blended together a few pages into two "cards". I keep...

    Want to keep your hands REALLY warm? Buy bar mitts.

    I scored a great deal on one of the Creese1 fender eliminator kits. The kit came with the plate light, FE bracket, and some LED blinkers (I didn't use them, yet). Here is what his EBay listings look like: 2006 2007 FZ-1 FZ1 Fender Eliminator BLACK logo TSM: eBay Motors (item 330494476276 end...

    FS: Rox Risers Elite handlebar riser

    These came with my bike, and they are a bit too high for my tastes (I don't mind lower bars). They look exactly like this: They are $85 new, and they are essentially mint (under 1k on them). How does $70 shipped sound? I'm also up for trading for parts too. Gold/black handlebars, AIS block...

    Fire Dragon Brothers levers installed

    Teaser: There didn't seem to be a whole lot of info/pics of these levers (besides everyone saying "buy them!"), so I decided to snap some pics after I installed them: Picasa Web Albums - Sean - 2008 Yamaha FZ1 The ones I bought are all black shorty style, and here is a link to the...

    Wanted: Gen 2 windscreen for cheap

    I want to experiment with a stock gen 2 windscreen. If anyone has one laying around taking up space I'd love to buy it (or maybe just pay for shipping :D ). I don't mind if it's scratched or even cracked (so long as the crack is at the top of the screen). Thanks all!

    Feeler: Trade my 2007 Suzki DR650 Supermoto + Cash for your FI FZ1?

    As absurdly fun as my DR is, I think I want to get a FZ1. I want to be able to do two up more, and I miss having a "big" bike. If anyone has even the slightest interest in this please post here or PM me. I'll give you the full breakdown on my DR. Here are all the mods on the DR: 17” Excel...
