I went there a few months ago still get lots of bikes there, sadly Marchride passed on a few years ago now and I have moved to Triumph for the last 10 years or so but still look in here to see how things are.

had a test ride last Saturday bloody frozen, loved the bike , mirrors are crap will replace them, and fit tail tidy and remove rear pegs, a few other mods will follow when run in and warmer weather, have ordered white with arrow and abs should take delivery mid March, full com with extra cover etc £220.   :)

Here's mine just after fitting the Mivv I got off one of the forum guys. Well chuffed. One-off crash bungs/foot rests by Justy. Nice to stretch out on during a long journey or when overtaking Harleys!



In action at a certain well-known location in Germany.

  think thats my old Mivv windsor farm shop meet a few years ago.

was just looking around to see the latest low miles one I could find out of interest, yes its expensive but the R is 8k so could have something like this and mod it and still have lots of change, dam thou keeps calling me, come back come back you know you want to.

I keep getting pulled back to the thou so had a little scout about found a late one low miles us spec by the looks but would do me fine with a few mods and monty etc, I could make it as good or better than my old one but I also want the new street R but thats a lot more money, dam this is hard head and heart having a battle over this decision, wish I had kept mine what to do Mmmm,    http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/bikes-for-sale/searchresults/detail/Yamaha/FZ1-FAZER/2005/_/R-NXGN-3000433

Exupnut, if you are happy with the bike as it is then enjoy, if you want more power and a faster better bike then look into the full monty kit, you can fit yourself but do need some mechanical knowledge, as said have a chat with Mike aka falcon he is the main man and a demigod really when it comes to this sort of modification, or check out Pats site I will post a link for you.      http://www.cartestsoftware.com/fz1/

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: What tire to keep
« on: 05 February 2013, 10:40:42 am »
I would not worry to much about the mismatch the front is a stickier tyre and its usually the rear we all lose, but if you have the funds then replace them both, the rosso is a good tyre and you would not go wrong with a set of them, but lots of set ups to choose from and every owner here will have some input on this subject. I always ran pirelli,s but each to there own.

what does the carbs tuned to can by last owner mean ? maybe it is already running stage 1 ivans kit , but you will do no harm fitting the k@n but will gain nothing unless you have the full monty work done.
