Zero Gravity DB Dark-Smoke w/new alum.
fasteners $84.00 shipped

So, I have added $595.01

But, hey, we have to make them our own , , , , , , right ? heh,heh oke:

The salesman from the Yamaha dealer where I bought it once told me , "you must have the biggest money FZ in the city" I don't doubt that, now someone else has.

I still have all the bills, I just don't want to know.:disapproval:

No Hail this is US dollars...since most of the parts I bought from ebay. other thing I bought at home I just converted to US dollars.

I was curious because of the sub throttle plates seemed so high but then I realized that was also with the FCE.

The price was right compared to the UK supplier of Ivan's part's. When I called to order the parts(from US) I spoke with Gina, who was very kind to me, because otherwise I would have payed almost x1.5 times the price of the FCE and Sub throttle plates from the UK and I would have payed 2 times the tax and shipping on them.

The tax in my Country is 5% on the total value of the merchandise + 23% of VAT on the total price, which comes at a 28% of the total value I pay for all the Motorcycle parts, but some parts are even cheaper that way than to buy them directly from a supplier in Croatia.

this is one way for me to get the upgrades, or I must wait for the Verona Bike Expo every year in January to buy the parts that I need at a really cheap price. This year I bought an one piece leather suit and boots for 700 euros both, and just after 30 min. I came to a official Ohlins seller, I asked the price for the rear shock and I was thinking that is a joke when the guy told me the price for the Ohlins rear shock for the Yamaha Fz1 was 600 Euros :jaw drop::jaw drop: this would be 793 US dollars, unfortunately I didn't have anymore money or I would buy it immediatly since the normal price is around 1000 Euros (approx 1300 US dollars).....Maybe next year I'll be more lucky!!!

 

[CorrectionsK9]

Wish I only had one bike....lol

 

[CRO_FZ1]

Well at least now I can prove to my girlfriend that I didn't spend that much on my bike since there are a couple of you out there ready for the HALL OF FAME!!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl:

An there are still some record breakers who didn't post their "investments"!!!!

 

[CCHOUSEKY]

I picked up my '09 last Monday. It's already got all Ivan's mods done to it by the previous owner, but it's stock cosmetically (except for frame sliders). In the last few days, I've ordered the following...

Corbin seat (front/rear) off Craigslist: $175
SW-Motech engine guards: $189
Motivation fork and axle sliders: $130
Conti Motion tires: $175

Think I am 4k EUR into my bike. For all the mods. The suspension, slip-on and the new topcase took up most of that.

Shogan Sliders x 2 sets = $70

Kryponite Disc Lock = $30

(did I mention 2 helmets and a leather jacket?)

 

[droopy89]

[BDazzler]

I refuse to play on the basis that...

 

[Michael_p]

Haven´t spent much $$ on mine :tup:

[Blanchy]

Wait the bug will bite sooner or later!

[CRO_FZ1]

That is the most important thing....If you have spend xy sum of money and you are satisfied than it was really worth it!

 

[NJFZ1]

Well I started keeping track of the money spent on the FZ1 and then I got scared so I stopped...I'd rather not give it too much though and just enjoy the bike, but at this point if I'd have to guess I have spent at least $3k (in addition to the price of the bike of course). As for the YZF1000...well she's affectionately know as "The Money Pit"...lol

I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that my answer to this question may incriminate me...
