    Maui the last nine days.

    I grew up in Hawaii, there is no helmet law there. It had been a while since I had been home & went back a couple months ago & I couldn't get used to seeing all idiots trying to look cool with no shirts & flip flops on sport bikes. There were a couple of fatalities the week I was there as well.

    2002 FZ1 for my first bike

    I agree, because I didn't see the guy behind me speed up & weave thru other cars & cross 3 lanes to get into a Mexican restaurant & I just barely caught him out of the corner of my eye it was my fault. I absolutely agree that maybe I should have been more aware of what was going on behind me...

    2002 FZ1 for my first bike

    Guys I need help choosing which bike to get, What would you do?

    Tires are brand new, it was just serviced. A carbon Yoshi exhaust is $500 alone, everything on it was tastefully done & everything I would have done + more than I would have done.

    Bought a 2001 FZ1 a week ago. Very pleased with my new machine.

    That lane splitting business would scare the crap out of me! Seems like one mistake or a driver moving into another lane position would get ugly in a hurry.

    Hey everyone, new to the FZ1 world & have questions

    Thanks for all the quick responses guys & the tips on what to look for. I will definitely look at the welds!!! There are no mods on this bike at all, first thing is to get the fender eliminator kit then an exhaust after that. Maybe get the handlebars powdercoated black, that should have come...
