    Motodynamics vs Custom LED

    Spyder Eye, to some people the differences you pointed out are negligible, but I think they are the features that make the difference between a good aftermarket product and a great one. Since I plan to keep my FZ for quite a few years, the Custom LED is almost certainly the better choice for me...

    New FZ8 Owner - Nova Scotia, Canada

    I just wanted to take an opportunity to say "Hello" to everyone on the forum. I've been lurking since a week or so before I purchased my bike (July 27). I used some of the feedback on the forum to help make my final decision. So far I've only got about 1000km on the bike, but I love it. After...
