I got big problems 2008 FZ1

[NJFZ1]

Well its back and better than ever..Thanks for the help.

Glad to hear that the bike is up and running again. Too bad you couldn't get a newer ECU, but that's the way the warranty works I suppose...

Ecu

How does an ECU go bad?

Hope your up and running soon!

Well......Just like anything else. Things break.

how much would a new ecu have cost ?
also whats the diffrence between the 2008 n new ecu ? I know one of the sales reps for yamaha said the newer version fz1 would surprise me ? better torque in midrange.

Start with unplugging the power commander if that fixes the problem try cleaning the connections and plug it back in.

Check that all connections are clean and tight at the battery

Make sure battery is in good condition

Check under tank for kinked fuel line ( many have had this problem )
do a search on the fuel line

Your modification list did not include a FCE from Ivans performance.
If you do have an FCE try removing it also.

Did the problem start after a fill up ?? Bad fuel ?

Have any codes ? did you check codes ?

Probably the stator. Very common, my son brought an fz1 it's lasted 3 weeks Probably need new engine as the magnets have gone all over the engine fml

On page 1 it clearly states a replacement ECU sorted the issue?

Good reminder for the ones in the back though; REPLACE YOUR STATORS FOLKS

Due diligence will take care of the stator issue. If it doesnt then karma does. Same goes for the white connector.

White connector will only leave you stranded, not damage the engine!

@bunk I've only owned the bike a few weeks and done the stator, what's this about a white connector?

White connector is a gen1 issue. 2nd gen main issues are stator and for 06-08 frame cracks.

One less thing, I'm on an 07. I checked the frame weld beneath the fuel tank when I bought the bike, all thanks to this forum basically. So far, so good.

Far better than gsxr1000's of the era where the entire headstock weld fails !
