FZ1 observations and questions
#5
+1 , nicely wrote,


the clutch seems fine ,just slip it more until moving,i put a 16 tooth on the front which helped pulling off from a standstill,lowered the gearing a little.
I too thought the horn was ok.
Perhaps try tightening the mirrors , as said the 10mm nuts behind the fairing.
The side stand does not poke out much but i see it as no hassle,some have slipped a piece of rubber hose on to the peg to make it stick out more.
As to no room under the seat"YES" bad design, on my VFR i had tools,cable lock and disk lock,these Fz1 s only room for a power commander and a tool clip, thats is why i am trying to make a fixed seat carry box for waterproofs,locks,fish and chips etc. See the carry box posts.

You wait until you try some smoother running and power improving mods,,,i have and its awesome.


I hope you are enjoying the bike and we are at the correct end of summer,lets ride...
