Hi all.

I would now like to hard wire my GPS to Gen1 and am wondering if anyone's done the same to their ride or at least point me to the source/guide so I can have it done myself.

Cheers

Hello all, thought I'd do the right thing and say hello. I have been lurking since I bought my Gen1 about 3 months ago to compliment the Honda Blackbird I already had.  But sadly 6 weeks ago, some low life managed to sneak into our basement garage and helped himself to the BB. 


Back to the FZS1000... I love this bike, and have always wanted one. especially for its looks. The bike is stock except for the after-market end can. She started life All-Blue but that's been changed to Matt-Black except for the front fairing. Looks aside, after a couple weekends of suspension tweaking she now rides as I like it, far and fast!- 500kms days are now a walk in the park. Prior to this, she was almost impossible to ride. and I've often wondered if that's the reason the previous owner won't pick up or return my calls... , when I just wanted him to just take it for a run just so he could feel the transformation. I guess he will never know.

I had originally wanted to do the R6 shock conversion after reading it on this forum, but I don't feel that it will be necessary after all my tweaking- but we'll see how that goes when I start riding further 2-Up. My BB was previously setup for distance runs 2-Up, how will this Gen1 cope with that task?

I guess only time will tell if its up for that role...
