    pic of my trip to the dragon

    Awesome pictures! I have ridden the dragon 2 different occasions on 2 different bikes but never my FZ1. Just as said earlier, it was my most enjoyable riding experience. I cant wait to go again. Thanks for sharing the pics.

    Looking to ride dirt, need some help

    Well I finally got a little seat time on the YZ. Man, this thing is strong. I like it a lot. I rode the vintage track several times this past weekend. Its a lot more sandy than I remember but the YZ powered through. I went down twice both in sandy turns. I'm not man enough to carry the speed...

    Looking to ride dirt, need some help

    Im sure its going to wear me out, but I will get used to it and will get better in time. I received the flywheel weight today along with some gear. Monster Mountain is pretty cool. The track is huge. Theres a vintage track that is toned down a bit. There are trails to ride too. Tom, who I...

    Looking to ride dirt, need some help

    Apparently, throwing in a heavier flywheel weight slows down how fast the engine comes on to power. Doesnt rob HP, just makes the hit of the powerband more manageable. It also increases inertia, which helps out with stalling. We shall see how it works. I ordered it last night and will put it in...

    Looking to ride dirt, need some help

    Well guys, here she is. Chandler, sorry man. I listened to everything you said but this one pretty much fell in my lap. 2010 YZ250. Bone stock except for V-Force3 reeds and suspension set up way to light for me. I kinda like the cushy ride tho. I bought it from the owner of an offroad park in...

    Looking to ride dirt, need some help

    I dont think I can tag a YZ here. Thanks for all the replies. I had a R6 as a first bike if that helps that part of the argument. I have ridden dirtbikes a little but never had one of my own. Im not completely opposed to the 125 option but Ive heard that they are harder to control and you have...

    Looking to ride dirt, need some help

    Hey guys, I'm looking to get into dirtbike riding. My younger brother rides a kx85 2 stroke and has a blast ripping around. We went to the Supercross event last night and now I have the itch to ride dirt. I am 6'1 and weigh about 180. I would be riding trails and the occasional track day after...

    can i use a PCII from an R1 on a FZ1 07

    Im running an R1 PCIII in mine. Plugs right. As stated above, you'll need to load a FZ1 map on instead of an R1 map. Good luck! Matt

    Ever got pulled over by the POPOs & why?

    Just once on the bike in 6 years of riding. 73 in a 45 in the middle of nowhere. Ruined my day, but it was my fault Matt

    What did you do to your FZ today?

    Installed my Rad Armor Radiator Guard. Looks great and has to offer more protection. Installation is a breeze. 15-20 minutes tops including cleaning up the mess I made. Matt
