Just kidding. Its raven black. I think some FZ1s didn't have the fairing issue. I think it is probably because maybe Yamaha changed the vendor for that vent sometime between the production cycles.

I went to the hardware store and got a small rubber stopper, like the ones you used in science class in high school. I trimmed the sides with a box cutter so the places touching the vent and the speedo were flat. I then cut a groove in the top of the stopper for the edge of the vent piece to rest in. This seems to hold the stopper in place. Make the stopper thick enough that you have to pull the vent and speedo apart a little to slip it in. Only about 4000 miles since then, but it seems to work really well.
i have a red 2010 and i hear that buzz, anoying! Thay did not fix anything!!
My "new" '06 was doing the exact same thing. (VERY loud buzzing.) I found that 8" zip-ties stuffed between the fairing and vent fit quite tightly. Buzz-be-gone...
