    Is this seat any good?

    I've had a TS seat on my last four bikes and my wife now has one. If you get one, order a custom and get the LONG option... much more room for the jewels to rest. ;)

    2013 FZ1

    They are cut from the same mold so it's easy to mix up. I've done the same with the FZ8... wondering if someone put a naked kit on the FZ1. Last night, I returned nearly all of the 2009 to OEM stock. She fired right up and sounds strangely quiet with the stock cannon. There are a couple...

    2013 FZ1

    Bought this on Saturday at Roadside Motorsports in VT.... Rode it 211 miles home to NH and wrenched for 12 hours on Sunday to move almost all my mods and ECU with Ivan's flash over from the 2009 FZ1. Brand new, stage IV mods, flashed and running really sweet! I still cannot open it up yet...

    What to look for after a low side glide.

    Glad you're OK! Bikes can be fixed easier than humans can! Just high-sided my FZ1 less than 2 weeks ago. Minor rash on several parts and a small dent on the tank. A small dent on the lower frame from the rear brake lever but insurance says it's not structural. I was on a one-way and two...

    Manuals

    There was a time when Partshark had ALL of them online for free. But Yamaha shut them down. Now when you click on manuals there? Not even a listing for Yamaha period. I know a LOT of riders who got the free service manual from them before it was killed though. For a lot of the FZ series.

    The Admin of this site as well as the sister FZ sites has been in contact with Yamaha Corporate and was instructed by their legal team that Yamaha does not produce or allow electronic copies of their service manuals, only the owners and warranty manuals.

    Cambo Down!

    Sorry to hear about the off! The bike is replaceable, you? Not so much! Happy that you're here to type about it. Gear has saved me twice... 31 years ago, I wrecked my first street bike and learned about ATGATT at that time. Never threw a leg over a bike without ATGATT since! Heal fast...

    New Penske 8975

    Sort of... ;) The spring is set to your rider weight and with proper static sag set up, it is the rebound setting that controls the downforce. Too little and the bike's rear rabbits in the corner, too much rebound and your butt feels like it is slamming into the pavement. Compression setting...

    Jumping ship?

    Go with what your desire is. As stated by JSP, life is too short. I'd put liability on it to cover damage to others just in case, but as Roadkill said, bank it (the difference) and in 3 - 5 years, you'll have the cash and equity in the bike to go get something brand new with zero payments. :D...

    Anyone use a tankbag?

    I have a magnetic Cortech Super 14L. Use it every day. Holds my rain suit, liners, spare gloves, balaclava and jumper cables.

    GoPro: where & how to install the cam? (Pictures?)

    Here's one I did... I put a mount on the swingarm. And one mounted to the radiator cover too. GoPro HD on a 2009 FZ1 swingarm - YouTube FZ1 Through the clover - YouTube

    New respect for this 2012 FZ8!

    No pics of the damage? Sorry it happened but you have to start somewhere.... Wished you had a little beater bike to toy with first instead of a newly delivered street machine. ;) This reminds me of when I got a brand new 2005 FZ6. We got it home and I unloaded it and drove it around the...

    top sellerie seat sizes

    Here's my long seat with blue vs. my wife's seat which is the standard lowered. Based on your pics, your's appears to be a long. Granted, these are for the FZ1 but not a whole lot different than the 8.

    Header wrap

    This is true... they do trap a lot. But if you pressure wash the material often, it will take about 95% of it out and keep them looking good for a long time. The best bet is to get them ceramic coated by a reputable company but make sure they do inside and outside to get the full benefit of...
