Hey y'all.
I just bought my FZ1 last week and am loving it so far.
It's a 2012 with about 4,000 miles on it now. I bought it from the original owner.
Every time I ride, I'm amazed how smooth and capable this bike is. I've never ridden anything this new, so it's quite an improvement...
So my son came home from Florida and we set out on a quick little 4 day/3 night ride. He hasn't been on a bike in about 3 years or so since he sold his FZ1 when he moved to Fla.
Luckily, we have an extra bike in the garage that he could borrow....
We headed out Monday morning towards Gunnison...

On Saturday I completed my first Iron Butt Saddle Sore 1000!
Three of us from my local club joined what turned out to be about 50 other riders for a 1000+ mile trip central Michigan around the Upper Peninsula (UP) and back to Lansing. We ended up doing it in about 21 hours, including a nap just...
The ST group in having a ride to eat in Lancaster/Intercoarse at a delicious buffet called the Shady Maple . Everyone is showing up at 1100 and there will be a ride afterwards.
I thought I would post this ride in it's own thread.

Well guys, my first big ride was a total success. I had a great time. Here is a brief ride report with some pics. I still have not had time to make any compilation video's but I do have a number of hours of footage to wade through to pick out the best stuff.

My wife wanted a HD and while I was not opposed to one, the cost was just too prohibitive. So I had her start looking at Metric Cruisers to find ones that she liked that would work for 2-up touring. We finally decided on the V-Star line and found a very nice 2007 1300 with the Touring package...
Hey, I am new to the world of FZ1 ownership. A friend of mine had a 2001 that I enjoyed riding years ago. This one popped up on a local classified ad site a while back and never sold, so I was able to get a good deal on it.
It is a 2002 with a Holeshot slip-on and Dyno Jet kit, according to...

Bought my bike back in December and have barely had any chances to ride. Between the cold and rain, it's mostly stayed in the garage! Looks like this weekend may be good and I'll try to get some pics with my real camera.
I'm not going to customize much, but I added a Yoshi pipe...
So I'm considering selling my 2012 FZ1, at the time I picked it up I was going through a lot of insurance crap with my '06 (18 wheeler jacknifed in front of me on the highway) waiting to see what the insurance company was going to say, was unsure how long it would take getting the parts to...

Hey y'all. I'm a long time rider from Canada. Been on bikes since I was 5, way back in 1981. I've owned several bikes, mostly Yamahas. I currently have a 2006 R1 which I bought new and a 2008 FZ1. I'm a nutter, like to ride fast and do wheelies when the time is right. Almost always ride in full...
I have owned my 2009 FZ1Na from new and have always been frustrated that whenever the FZ1 is featured or group tested in bike magazines with other so called "SUPER NAKEDS such as triumph speedtriples , aprilia tuonos honda CB1000R" etc, it always seems to be considered the poor relation and...
