I'm under the noob impression I have basically a sport bike that has a more upright riding position and the fairings removed. Is this correct? Why are the benefits of a naked bike? I can see the benefits of the upright riding position. What about the lack of fairings? This is the only bike I...

I just bought an 01 fz1 with 40k on the clock and I was wondering what I can do to get the choke lever to move more smoothly. Its very stiff and I'm afraid I may break it one of these days. I noticed that there's like screws on the carbs that the choke bracket slides along. Should these be...

Hi, I have only ever ridden a bike once, a 250 dirt bike through the bamboo in Haleiwa. Well, I have been wanting a motorcycle for a long time now and I finally pulled the trigger. What I want to be able to do eventually is: Ride around town Ride for fun Take day trips with my camera...

Well I finally got around to booking my Dyno tune at the end of this month. I will be taking my bike to Dyno Services - Ryan Schnitz Racing He is well known around my area for his tunes and racing so I think he would be one of the best to go to, at least locally. I am hoping for 140 to 150rwhp...

It is a 2008 Yamaha FZ1 purchased used with 550 miles on it in 2010. At that point it was completely stock. Over the years I have slowly modified the bike to fit my personality and liking. Previous to this bike I had a Aprilia Futura. It currently has over 11,000 miles and runs perfect. I don't...

Well, here we go again. My daughter is ready to really get into some off roading this season so we decided to get something for Michelle to ride to go along with Lexi's CRF80 and my KLX250S. We got a super deal on a 2013 Honda CRF150R Expert so I bought it. Was brand new sitting on the...

Ok, so after missing my SV650 for the last 5+ years I finally was in a position to acquire my second bike. Wanted something a little meaner, but wanted to definitely build a "streetfighter" out of whatever I found. I actually wanted to find a fully-faired bike and strip it down, but I guess...

So I'm very frustrated and at my wits end. I'm having three issues with my 2006 Fz1, and I'm not sure if they're related or isolated and just happened to occur close together. 1st) About a month ago I noticed my digital gauge display had developed at "dead spot" where it would not display...

Hi Guys, I'm currently installing my new Powercommander V in preperation of the ECU Flash from Ivan. It looks like it works well, no error codes and the bike runs fine. Note: I only idle the bike because the roads are dirty and my FZ1 doesn't like dirty roads ;). I have just two questions...

Long story short, I took delivery of a new 2015 KTM 1190 Adventure today. Air filters are on order to deal with the air box issue - so I haven't yet ridden the bike. A friend and former crew mate has a brother that works a side job at a moto dealership here (they are both Houston...

Yes, I went against all expert advice and got myself a 998cc FZ1 as my first bike. I have never ridden before until the MSC a month ago. I've been riding the FZ1 for about a week, but only in and around my neighborhood. I am hooked. Isn't she lovely?

Hello all, I've read a few threads with a similar theme to this, but none seem to specify the root of the problem. My bike is a 2008 FZ1N - 8000 miles, never dropped/damaged. It tracks/pulls to the left when weight is off the bars. It requires a slight push of the right handlebar to keep...

Hello guys, I tried searching for this but couldn't find anything. Any help is much appreciated. I tried starting the bike, didn't start. Starter works, can hear the fuel pump going, but it wouldn't start. Then after a few tries it started briefly. I received an error 19 code and it hasn't...
