hi everyone , has anyone done a complete lower of the front and rear ? the reason i ask is cos i would like to try some clip ons , but i would like to put these at the top of the forks , i`m sure i`ve seen this done on here too , then to complement the front drop , i`d either get a shorter rear...

will do , have done 80 miles this afternoon , to try n get them scrubbed in . we have a cool temp today with a brisk wind , but these tyres have impressed me , no nasty bites in the bum , my confidence has gone up alot too already , they seem to suit the way i ride better than the pirellis , i...

well with the fz1 adjustable suspension , the shop had nearly got it spot on from the off , went for a ride along one of my favorite routes , there was none of this bong bong bong around corners when the surface wasn`t the best , today we have a day off in the uk , did a 140mile blast and i can...

went for a blast on the fz8 last night , now following the fz1 fazer ride , i now prefer the fz1 riding position , the handling was better , the motor was better and the lack of wind was brilliant , so as i can not afford a fz1 fazer , i`ll have to find some fz1 internals or buy a fork kit , get...

hello everyone , my fz8 sailed through her first mot today :) so as she was in , the dealer loaned me a brand new fz1 , now that was running dunlop sportmax , it was raining hard the whole time , but the feed back and confidence was a league above my fitted pirelli diablo II tyres , which i...

Hello all , hope everyone is ok , this long weekend I have the use of a 2013 90 mile old R6 , I have just come back from a quick 80 mile run , now then , the handling of the r6 is light years ahead of my fz8 , now if I could just get my fz to handle better , I won't have to sell it , the rear...

eeerrrr , i`ll try , the stock tyre used to let go far to often and far to easy , even after 100 mile blast , warm road temps , she spin up when nailing it from junctions etc , and when ya got to roundabout it would just let go , no warning at all , not even on the edge , it was killing my...
