Guys/girls
Can you post how many miles is on your bike now and how many it had when you bought it..
Plus how long you own it or the date you bought it..
 
My FZ1
I Bought it brandnew with 0 miles in august  2008
And it now has just over 5000miles (I have to take a look later to get the exact mileage)
 
I know I only done a very low mileage on my FZ1,,But Am going blame it on living on an island that is only about 7 miles long... :'(

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / I Done something really really stupid today
« on: 16 February 2013, 08:22:21 pm »
I Jumped on my FZ1 put the key in ignition and turned....
But the Key wouldn't turn far enough to start the bike..I think that the ignition has seized up so I go off to the shed and get some WD40 to spray into the ignition..
Then i try turning the key again to start the bike but again & again & again everytime the key failed to turn far enough to start the bike..
 
 

 
A few minutes later I notice the starter button on the throttle housing... :o ... :o ... :o

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Sad Time as am thinking of maybe selling my FZ1
« on: 09 April 2012, 01:53:18 am »
The last of my biking friends i go riding with and touring with is selling his motorbike as he very short on funds and needs the money...
With none my other mates owning a motorbike anymore, i don't know if it really worth me keeping my FZ1 as i don't seem to get much enjoyment anymore when going out riding on my own or feel like going touring on my own..
I live in guernsey which is a very small island and has a 35mph max speed limit,So most my riding fun use to mainly comes from me and my mates taking are motorbikes away to france..
 
I love my bike and have been riding motorbikes from the age of 14 (am now 43)
I really don't know what i want to do right now...
