Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Ohlins YA-009 rear shock for fz1: fitment« Last post by b1k3rdude on 11 May 2024, 06:55:08 pm »So this was the only place I could fit the pre-load adjuster and even then it was a tight fight. routing the hydroic hose from the shock to the adjuster was also a pain, I had to route it under the ABS unit, between the unit and the protective plastic splash cover.
Can I ask if anyone else has fitted an ohlins to their FZ1 and do they have photos..? 5

My tank bag expands sufficiently to take a helmet, or a cargo net on the back seat would work. 8

Have a look at tail packs that have straps to carry around rather than a dedicated backpack. I cant suggest anything though as i always use the topbox for storing my helmet when parked.

General / Backpack recommendations - big enough to put a helmet inside.« Last post by b1k3rdude on 09 May 2024, 09:01:45 pm »Before I get on the phone to Infinitiy, Sportsbikeshop etc, I thought I would check on here and see if anyone suggest a backpack that you can fit a helmet inside..? Im guessing 30L or bigger. Budget is £100 and it would be handy if it has zippable side pockets.
My old Hien Gericke backpack was a 31L and I could just about fit a helmet inside. |
