Greetings from Chicago U.S.A

I dont know why I waited so long to apologize for this clown that somehow got elected president of the U.S.A. I have a blue 2005 FZ1 and 2014 FZ09 or the MT-09  as it's known in most markets. I've been riding 34 years, 12 months a year. Here in icy Chicago thats sort of rare. The Urban Ballet with millimeters to spare. Yeah, I enjoy traffic.

Hi Wayne, and welcome to the forum. I commuted to London for most of my working life by bike, so totally understand where you're coming from, although maybe not quite as cold as your home city.Quite a few of us on this forum also post on the Stateside equivalent FZ10A. Enjoy

Hi Wayne. Great city, been there. You've got the Blues

My FZ1 is nearly stock except for a smaller front sprocket which is great in town and just fine at interstate speeds. Touring in Italy was my heaven.
