I bought the bike new from a dealer in Feb 2011. I’ve babied this bike – always garaged, engine broken in per manual, oil and oil...
I love my FZ1, it's super fun to ride in the twisties...but after several 1500+ mile trips, I'm beginning to look into other options with less of a sport mindset.
My bike is flawless. The title is clear. I am the original owner and I broke the engine in according to the manual. I've changed...
How do I post pictures? Do I need to upload them to some other site first, such as photobucket? Or can I upload them directly?
Note: When I tried uploading them to photobucket, the pictures turned out HUGE when posted here...even after I edited their size to small. WTF...
My Shogun frame sliders arrived and I plan to install them this week. There isn't any information on the package regarding what torque value I should use to install them.
Hopefully I will have time to update this post tomorrow; I've done more mods.
The ZG ST windshield is by far better than the stock one. The buffet is gone until I hit 75-80mph. I was hoping it would be gone all together, but I doubt any shield would eliminate it completely. Plus it'll be...
I've been reading a lot of reviews/opinions about Motorport gear (motoport.com). Their stuff appeals to me because it mesh for summer riding, without sacrificing protection (or so it seems). And they advertise with the liner its good down to 20 degrees. Really all I want is quality gear that...
I'm coming up on my 600mi/1000km service and I'm looking for a good mechanic. The dealer I bought the bike from wants ~$300 in parts and labor. I'm going to check with some of the other local dealers too.
Mainly looking for someone reasonably priced who will do the job right.
Thinking about buying a set of Shogun sliders. My only reservation is the length of the puck...3-inches seems kinda short. Anyone gone down with these and if so, how'd they work?
Pics will come, once I get the mods on...so far, only my windshield and Givi case have arrived. Hopefully I'll get the rack tomorrow to mount the case. Exhaust is supposed to show up friday.
I picked up my first FZ1 Feb. 9th, 2011, and I thought I'd start a thread about the mods I do, including prices and locations of purchase, to help anyone else with similar mods in mind. I intend to use my FZ for touring, which are what the majority of my mods are aimed towards. I don't plan to...
@Oldschool: I have that thread saved for when I do my install :)
Does anyone have a titanium MIVV GP pipe on a raven FZ (preferably a '07 or '10 with the gold forks)? I'd love to see a picture as I'm torn between the CF and titanium style.
One other question about the MIVV GP pipe...it...
I'm getting ready to put an aftermarket slip on can on my new 2010 FZ1, but there are a few things I don't understand that I was hoping to get clarified before I buy anything.
First, my reason for putting a different pipe on is because the stock pipe looks and sounds lame. I don't plan to...
I'm in the market for a MIVV GP slip on for my 2010 FZ1...the $400+ it retails for is a bit rich for my blood. I'm not sure if I prefer the carbon fiber or titanium can; I think the CF looks better, but I've heard stories about the guts of CF slip ons overheating and having to be replaced. Not...
