Hello guys and gals,
I'm Alex and I have just bought a FZS 1000 Fazer. I believe it's '03 model (I don't think there is a difference in the first gen during production years). It has some modifications done by the previous owner, who was handy guy and made most of the things by himself. The most obvious is that it's converted into an ''N'' model, but not quite :). It has a round 7 inch headlight and Givi wind fairing, the turn indicators are relocated due to the absence of the plastics and are all LEDs. The speedometer is a digital one, from R1, calibrated to work with the FZS properly. The headlight has H4 LED bulb (which is very good) and has two additional LED lights mounted on top of the two far ends of the radiator. The brake lines are replaced with braided and off course the exhaust is replaced with, in the case, a carbon fiber Leo Vince, which is really nice as it's not at all loud in low to mid RPM and is loud enough in high RPM (this is with the DB killer). I'm sure there are more mods, that I cannot recall at the moment, will add them later. At the moment the only thing missing for me is the phone holder as I use it a lot.
Regards, Alex.

Hi,
Sorry for the delay, I have been on vacation and couldn't upload from the phone for some reason. Here are some pics as I got the bike.

Welcome. That's a very nice tidy conversion :)

Hi Alex and welcome,
A real factory looking conversion, a credit to you and the previous owner. :)

I'm still not convinced that I like the looks with that big windshield. I'll look for a smaller size one and try to make them both easily interchangeable. One for the city and short trips and the other for touring, as the big one is absolutely great for touring, great wing protection.
Later I may try to do FZ1 gen 2 'N' model conversion, as I prefer it's headlight compared to the round one, entirely aesthetically wise.

See what you mean about the windshield, and that deflector makes it look worse. Perhaps just try taking that off first.

Now that you've said it that's all I can see. A bandit haha
Echoing others sentiments though, very professional looking conversion and I agree a Fz1n headlight would look awesome 👍
