Ah yeh

You'll feel the weight difference in the corners but those FZ1 sure do fly......7k revs onwards is where it's all at

As nice as that FZ1 is....I prefer the look of your Boxeye. How could you do it to her you heartless shit

Yep so different to the 600 to ride, as expected but thankfully so far I am not regretting the change!

Nice, but I bet it feels a bit like you're riding your big brothers bike

, let us know if you still think it's as chuckable round corners . . .

Its obviously heavier into and through the corners, coming out of them is a bit different to the 600 too

The main thing taking a bit of getting use too is the size of the rear tyre!!! Can really feel it on the road, road markings etc etc

Nice one Mike . . . enjoy the FZ1, she's got a fat ass by all accounts but the power's all yours to use- your right hand is king
