Wow, I'm new to the FZ1, seeing how flickable it is in the corners is awesome! Everyone here is saying your lines are "off", but it's still way above my level!
I did notice a couple mini slips as well, I assumed sand, but I don't know much about the road conditions. Cool video though, I'll be checking out more for sure!

It is much less "flick-able" with the stock shock. My lines were off because I was pushing harder and once you mess up on this section, you either slow and get back the best line or you make do, which is what I did,
I don't have a clue why some of you guys think you see small slips. There is only one loss of traction in the video.

I think some of the clutch action may be mistaken for lost traction. The lines look pretty good considering there are a lot of marks on that road that we have no idea what it really looks like.

I've been running the same tire configuration you described for the last 2-years. With this year's tire replacement of RS2, front & rear, I haven't noticed any real drop in traction.
Only time in the previous 2-years traction was a possible issue was taking 25-mph curves at 50 mph and being surprised by fresh tar snakes. I didn't "break" traction, but the bike "skipped" a fraction to the curves' outside.
...Did give a queezy feeling.
