Hey everyone,
Just got a 2011 Silver FZ, and just joined up too:sport12:
My name is Craig, I live in Ventura County, So. Ca, have been riding for 15 years. Looking forward to this new bike, riding and modding and learning all sorts of good stuff here. Hope I can add some in return.
First ride on the FZ is tomorrow:cheerleader:
Thanks,
Craig

copperdawg.com is a option. I am a big fan of Pats work.
 
Thanks Mike...that is a nice looking FZ!!
Agree that Pat's work is beautiful...actually talked with him yesterday about a few things )

Noticed that you have a speedohealer. Do you happen to remember how much the OEM speedo is off? My last two bikes were a 600RR which was about 6% optimistic and a GSXR 750 which was closer to 10%.

Thanks
 
Congrats and :welcome: to the forum!

I have the OEM lower cowl and the Copperdog Strike seat cowl. Love the look of both of them.

Here she is all set up.

Thank you. I changed my front sprocket rite away so I am not sure how bad the spedo was factory. Someone may chime in that knows.
 
Hey guys,
Got out today for the first ride and had a great time. Fun bike for sure! Some adjustments that I'll make for myself now that I have ridden, but quite happy with the FZ.

Cobalt, thanks for the pic...looks great. My understanding is that the OEM lower cowl is not available here in the US, so any suggestions for a UK or Euro supplier would be appreciated.

Thanks all:)
