What you're doing is brilliant, have you got an engineering/mechanic background or just like giving it all a go?

Hello Smurfbud. 134 views and 1 comment that's not bad. LMAO! What ideas have you come up with or what are you looking at with regards to suspension mods. I've been looking but can't decide what route to go down atm. Whether to just go fully aftermarket like nitron rear shock and matris full...

Thanks Keach.

Thanks Keach. There are so few FZ8s in the UK....or I never see any anyway its so hard to get any information about mods. I understand satan is a forum member that makes these adapters, does he have a site? Thanks

Ah I'd do that myself. I'm just waiting for my exhaust to come back from a metal fabricators before I can go any further.

Ok....maybe that was just a starting from price then depending on what you have done, probably let you get there then say "oh yeh btw its extra for this, this and this". Lol.

Hello All, Hope everyone is well and been able to enjoy the few good days of weather we have had so far this year. From reading through this forum I have noticed the other guys around the world seem to have done a lot more performance and handling mods than I have seen on any other FZ8 or...

That price did make me wonder if they were any good but they do seem to have all the latest bikes so maybe they are alright. If not I'll have to take it somewhere else. Cheers again.

Ok cool. Whats the name of where you work? There is a place in London a bit closer to me called superbike hire that will do a custom map on the PCV for £150. Is that a reasonable price? Thanks for your help.

What exactly would I need on a 2011 FZ8 to do the R1 shock conversion? Thanks

In the UK the minimum a super unleaded fuel can be is 97 Ron(to my knowledge) and Shell V power here is 99. I generally stick this in the tank as it definitely gives you increased mileage per tank and I'm sure that the bike responds slightly better than with a budget fuel. Having picked my bike...

I'm not to sure exactly I guess I would just like what everyone else does which is a bike that runs as smooth as it can and performs better if that is possible. I got the PCV second hand and haven't fitted it to my bike yet for fear it will do more harm than good. I need to plug it into my...

I also agree the popping is awesome and so do a lot of the guys I ride with. When you're riding through a village with buildings close together or a tunnel it always puts a smile on my face. Saying that all the people that are turning around or looking at my bike as I ride by don't seem to be...

I had the Danmoto XG1, that is a pipe that turns heads....unfortunately have to take it off for the UK MOTs as they don't appreciate the noise. I did buy some universal baffles off ebay and fit them which when warm muffled the thundering noise but still not an MOT pass. Just purchased a full...

What would you guys suggest as the best spark plugs?

What are the benefits of the flash and what can you do with a PCV? Also actually is there anyway of finding out if a PCV is or isnt actually working. Cheers James

I've got the ERMAX screen on mine. Looks brilliant(my opinion) but tbh I don't think it's that great as wind comes off the headlight and travels up the inside of it. Haven't been on my bike much recently as weather here(England) is rubbish however if I go out on it at the weekend I'll report back.

I've seen this advertised as some of my family are members of the RBL however it is about 80ish miles from me and without anyone to travel there with I would say I very much doubt I'll be attending. Have you been to it before?

Looks really good, I like those mirrors but we cant get anything similar in the UK have to order them from your side of the world. Need to emigrate with my bike!

Love the bike BigD looks brilliant! If the weather is good will you be up boxhill next weekend?
