Hi everyone.


Great to be a member of this site and a fellow owner of this beast of a bike.



Another proud owner of the FSZ1000 !


I rode one of these GEN 1 bikes in Thailand last year and have upgraded from my Suzuki GS500E recently as had to have one of these beasts.


Bought my FZS1000 2001 model two weeks ago from a guy who bought it when it was 1 year old.


He has tracked it 12 times at Eastern Creek in Sydney and has had the Emulsion Tubes and Jet Needles replaced with aftermarket and a Mega Cycle pipe fitted all prof done at a racing shop on the dyno. He told me 135HP at the back wheel. Plus -1 up front. Low wide almost flat bars. Stiffer rear spring. 57,000 kms. Full synthetic from the start - thank god for that!


This bike feels half the weight of the standard one I rode in Thailand which felt a little heavy on slower corners.


Around town is goes really well and smooth but I won't really know it goes until I get out of town to line it up down a straight to see what she's got.


Popped some new Conti Road Attack 2's on the weekend.
