    Put her down:(

    Nothing wrong with stunting as long as you're geared up and not on busy roads. Some of the shit they do is just badass- i'd love to try it, but I don't have the money for a beater bike :) closing a tailgate like a boss zr0yX - YouTube

    Changing out carb boots?

    The top right link on this page, PAT's FZ1 Page, is all you ever need. As far as the carb boots go, I'd budget 4 hours if you haven't done it before, maybe 2 if you're comfortable with working in tight spaces on bikes. PS: I would look into porting them first, as the interior of the stock...

    gen 1 adjustable rearset?

    I contacted everyone linked in these threads and nobody was able to come up with anything. I ended up buying a used set of LSL's off a member here- I like the position a lot, but the LSL build quality is not as good as some of the other brands I've seen. However, pretty much nobody has...

    What did you do to your FZ today?

    It's been a while since I posted in here, so here's the list of what's been done since last time: -Removed all chrome/silver bits because I hate them and they're ugly and heavy. -removed pasenger pegs. Discarded left hand one, cnc'd off peg on RH one and removed unnecessary material. Powder...

    Conventional vs Synthetic in my recent experiance

    I use 4t in my bike just because I like how it shifts and I've used Mobil 1 in my mustang (275hp 289, not easy on oil) for a long time with no problems. To be honest, I think most of the name brand oils are fine these days, but since I've never had a problem with Mobil 1 synthetics, I'll keep...

    running on two cylinders, advise?

    Sounds like could still be a fuel feed issue. Check that the fuel line didn't get crimped when you lifted the tank to turn the petcock and then bolted it back down.

    R1 powered min

    As I said on the jalop article, I love this car except for the fact that they just glued the R1 tach straight to the steering column. It takes all the mini-ness out of the interior to have a giant blue glowing digital display from planet zorg covering up an old british dashboard. I'd still hoon...

    NorCal Hwy 4

    As a Nevada City native, this makes me want to go home and ride again. San Diego roads are great, but they don't have rivers by them :)

    Synthetic oil choice?

    I have found the best results from making my own synthetic blend. Optimal shifting results from: 1/2qt rotella 1/4 qt mobil 1 2 cups Courvoisier 4 tbsp premium caviar 8 oz gold flakes (this does not help shifting, but it does make the oil more expensive, which, as pointed out earlier...

    Strange Ebay Ad

    Oh, I would wear them, don't get me wrong. But I can't claim responsibility for them. He has a 9mm glock that he shoots at the range, so he uses them all the time.
