| Dedicated "off" thread |

From reading members "offs", would it be a good idea to have a dedicated mishap/off/crash thread.I think everyone can learn something from reading of others mishaps and can use the flowing posts that will appear to improve their own riding.
Simple things like, apart from any speed/condition issues perhaps people could learn that if they see any bits of crash debris on the entrance to a corner there may well be some in your path on the bend.
Another one I read. Travelling along duel carageway - all moving looks behind- all clear makes the manoeuvre to the right lane (I think the very same time as finishing the look behind) and in that time the right hand lane had banged on the anchors resulting in rider going in the back of the last car in the right hand lane.
So apart from reading the road ahead a little better I would take from that you need to make sure that you also re-look ahead. The two examples are what I hope I always do and are just quick examples to give the idea but the point is we can all learn things from other focers offs so having a dedicate "off" thread would be a learning tool for us all.

| FZ1 - not naked |

Hi all
I was about to buy a new MT09 to carry in my motor-caravan but realised I could buy an FZ1 that has more grunt to carry me and the wife about. The only problem I have is that Yamaha only give the height to the top of the screen. Could someone with a non-naked FZ1 please measure their bike from the ground to the highest point somewhere on the handlebars I would presume? Please fold the mirrors down if possible. I'm happy to remove the screen to put the bike in the back of my van but if the height is still too much I'd have to get the naked version which I don't like the looks of.
If there is an owner of an FZ1 local to me (Ivybridge, Devon) I would love to get a look at one. There doesn't seem to be any second-hand ones for sale near me.
Thank you and a Happy New Year to you all.
