Just sold it tonight to a guy who lives a block from me. Really really hard to see it go. I am really going to miss the FZ1. Again I wanted to wish all of you a safe riding season. Hopefully I will see you on the road again soon.
Take care,
Chad aka CGFZ1
Hello FZ1 forum, unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control I have to sell my 07 FZ1. I am devistated to have to see her go but life sometimes rears its ugly head.(car died and we need to buy another):cry: I am looking at this as just a minor set back and hopefully I will be back on a...
The naked guy on the R6 is definitely not me, I am much whiter than that (from Wisconsin) and a pic of me like that would probably scare the hell out of everyone, even worse than that one.
Anyway, Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes, greatly appreciated.
Take care,
Chad
I have a stock muffler and EXUP cabels to go with it. The silver covers have some scratches on them from my wife moving the muffler on the garage floor after I removed it from my 07. Otherwise they are in great condition. PM me and make me an offer on the muffler and we'll take it from there.
I feel your pain, I might have to put my 07 on the market. I am finishing up grad school and the job search has been tough to say the least. If something dosen't fall into place soon I will be right behind you selling my bike. :cry:
Hopefully you will be able to pick up a bike in the not too...
Pete,
I have Progressive as well but Wisconsin has fairly high rates for Motorcycle insurance. Also I live fairly close to Milwaukee so I am sure that dosen't help either. I actually just switched to Progressive and my rates went down quite a bit.
I rode the BMW S1000RR yesterday and the...
WTH, that is less than I am paying for my 07 FZ1:embarrased:
So not only are you kicking the crap out of my bike from a performance stand point, but you are paying less for insurance as well. My forehead is now starting to hurt from hitting it against the wall.:banghead:
What insurance...
Beautiful bike! Do they make seats for the Raider that are more comfortable for a passenger? I have found some great deals on Raiders here in Wisconsin and you have peaked my interest. Thanks!
So's getting married but that didn't stop me either:D
I do like Castor Oil though, I run it in my car and SUV, Syntec titanium in both rigs. 130,000 on the Durango and running great burns no oil,,,,, that reminds me I have to change oil in that beast...
What the hell I'll get in on this. I have been running Yamalube but I am switching to Amsoil for my next oil change. It's a little expensive at around 12 bucks a quart but it is great oil (used to be all I would run in my ZX12R when I owned it). I will for sure be buying my oil filters from...
Michele the bike looks great, you and Eric have put a lot of work into your bike and it shows. Very nice:tup: Enjoy your riding season this year.
Ride Safe
Hey Wolf, post some picks when you get your seat. I have an 07 that is pretty much the same color as yours. I am thinking about Carbon fiber black with carbon fiber silver accents and grey stitching. I would also add the gel insert.
Thanks for the link looks like a great seat cover. :sport12:
I'm curious about insurance rates on the Tuono V4 APRC? I like the rest of you am lusting over the Tuono V4 but, at 167 ponies from the factory, I have a feeling the insurance companies will not be as kind as we would like. Also will this bike be classified as a sport touring or pure sport bike...
Ok I have read about all of the mods and studied the Copper Dawg video's and I am curious about how much power you actually can get out of an FZ1 motor without bolting a turbo on. I have been considering the following mods
1. Full Yosh exhaust system (or Arrow header and Two Brothers slip on)...
I owe you big for posting this video! I now have a new nick name for my cousin who is a die hard Harley guy and who spends more time cleaning his motorcycle than anyone I know "THE POLISHER". I will tell him it's his new biker gang name:rofl:
Thanks again for posting this:tup:
My faith is somewhat restored
Met a group of Harley riders at a gas station in Cedarburg Wisconsin who have restored my faith in Harley riders (somewhat). Great group of riders who were really friendly and sat and talked motorcycles with me for quite a while (was almost late for class) and good...
