Newbie in Market Harborough

[winnsworld]

Hi all


Just picked up a 2001 FZS1000 for my daily, all weather rider.


I've had an FZ1 in the past but never got on with seat, etc.


I've also got a 2013 FJR for touring, days out, etc. with the missus and a 2002 ZX9-R Ninja for being a boy racer from time to time...


One week into riding it and loving every minute. It's been jetted and fitted with K&N's with a Viper can (minus the baffle)

lots of knowledge on here & not just of the 2 wheel kind

Welcome to foc-u  . Hopefully the FJR and ZX will get used a lot less in the future. I use our Fazer 1000 a hell of a lot more than my Aprilia RSV or FJ1200 - it's just as much fun and comfortable as either of those (although my real love is the FJ).

Welcome I'm in Harborough will look out for you. I ride a FZ1 gen 2 not the most comfortable seat but other than that cracking bike.

LOL I used ti have a FZ1 too. Bloody seat was uncomfortable... I had custom ones made but still didn't help! Changed the bars to upright Rhentals but still no better. I don't know what it was. Just ergonomics I guess.


The earlier FZS1000 is sooooooo much more confortable.


PS - I ride out now and again with the Welland Valley Riders (not a club officially but we arrange rideouts, etc.) look them up on FB or pop into see Nathan at Spender's Motorcycles.


Hope to see you about.
