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..?

Ok.. thanks for the reply.

Having seen the damage a backpack can do to someone's back in an accident i would never suggest that one be worn on a motorbike. 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.

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.

Yes, the YSS fork valve emulators can make quite a difference if fitted with linear rate springs. Heavier fork oil also needs to be installed.Note however that it's not a simple drop-in - you need to modify the fork's internal damper rods.
Link to my original 2008 Gold valve fork installation here (I used TRX 850 gold valves but they were a smidge too big):

However, if you're not confident about carrying out permanent fork surgery, go with Progressive springs and different weight oil.
