Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Re: Fazer1000 gen1 suspension upgrade
« on: 01 August 2014, 07:27:16 pm »
I put hyperpro front and rear springs on my gen 1 to cope with varying loads (solo vs luggage/pillion) and it made the bike ride a lot better. Obviously not as good as a complete suspension rebuild but for a couple of hundred quid well worth it. Also put a taper roller bearing in the head while it was apart. Supposed to be better than the standard ball race.
MEZ4s are the worst tyres ever! Yamaha might have sold loads more FZSs if they hadn't speccedv them with MEZ4s from new! Best thing I ever did was replace them even though they were hardly worn. And when they do wear they develop a little ridge in the middle of the front which makes it fell like you're riding on marbles!
