Hello all, just to say a friendly hello. I have had my FZS1000
for a while now and have just started to fall in love with it. I have done 2 Euro trips so far and enjoyed both, since April putting 11k on the clocks. Not a great deal I know, but closing on 60 soon and with work commitments I'm quite happy. I knew the 2 previous owners so was very willing to buy the 2003 bike, its fairly standard except Yamaha crush bungs and a Blueflame throaty exhaust. It also has a Givi rack fitted, but with a bit of potching I've managed to fit my old Nonfango boxes to it to no ill effect. For a weeks tour fitting 52ltr topbox[left on bike] and 2 x 40litr sidecases, but a 2 week trip I use my 2 x 48ltr topboxes as sidecases along with my baglux tankbag. Well that's my short story so far, i'll try to enclose a pic below. TTFN, Tommy
