How many miles on your fz1??

That is great! Any issues beyond normal maintenance?
The water Pump Seal and Impeller needed to be replaced a while back - I had the shop do that. I fixed a seal in the thermostat housing myself and had 2 shims put into the motor around 66k when I heard a slight ticking sound. mostly just fluids and tires.

Not bad at all!
 
wow some impressive numbers here. I sold my '01 gen 1 last week with 69k on the odo. Bought a gen 2 to replace it that only had 6300mi on it and I'm happily commuting to work again.
 
Here is my personal Log I keep on the bike.

LOL I had to click on your profile cause I knew you had to drive year round. I'm somewhat jealous only getting maybe 6 months of driving. Very detailed. I'm lucky I put enough miles on to change the oil once a year. Cheers.

Until the last few years I did ride all winter - I also used to ride to work 5 days a week, but since Pandemic I am remote 2 days a week now. Once I got into my forties I grew tired of riding in the winter when it is dark and in the upper 30's or lower 40's in the morning. This past year I hardly rode at all during the winter since we had so much rain in SoCal, I prefer to be in my truck when it is wet outside.

Parking at work is going to be a nightmare during construction for at least a year, so I might be riding it all winter long just to not have to park offsite and ride a shuttle bus into campus.
 
that goes to show a plug change every 8k is a bit ridiculous.

how did that blow out on the highway go? How did the bike act And what was the cause? Have never had one but curious.
 
60K on my ‘09. Have replaced coils with OEM and cam shaft position sensor With OEM. Those are they only ”big“ things I’ve had to do…knock on wooddd
 
Lol this thread makes me feel somewhat less like a complete dork. I have a spreadsheet too, very similar to the one above. My 08 is approaching 50K, only 8K of which are mine.
Ok still probably a dork. :)
