New to the forum and also to the FZ1. Just got a pristine BONE STOCK 2005 FZ1 with 3K miles. Traded in my 1999 Suzuki Bandit 1200s and so far, I'm really liking the Yamaha.
Now here comes the question(s). What are the best performance mods for the FZ1? Please list them as 1,2,..... With #1 being the mod offering the most improvement over stock. I know this is very subjective but all of your opinions are appreciated.
I'm looking at jet kits, fork springs, upgraded rear shock (R6 or similar - don't have the $ for an Ohlins), stainless brake lines, or ???.
FWIW, the best mod to my old Bandit was upgrading to a GSXR shock and progressive springs in the forks.
Again, Thanks from a Newbie on this forum.:bowdown:
