    Hello all, Got the 2008 FZ1S month ago been riding 40 odd years mainly sports bikes. A love of beer and pies means I'm not the right shape for sports bikes any more, but seems I have found for me the best of both worlds in the FZ1S.

    Hello I'm zrxjoker from the Netherlands Last week I traded my zrx1100 from 2001 in for a FZ1N from 2007. What a big difference between those 2 bikes, I loved how the zrx handled, but this is much better.
