    FZIN 2008 Top Speed

    in Naked

    Posted

    i purchased a new 2008 FZ1N last week , i havent had the chance to ride it much . once run in , i'll run it through its paces . but my question is , what top speed are other members getting out of theirs ? hows their overall performance ? i'd certainly hope it can reach 260kph ?

    Hi Mate,Im riding a 2008 FZ1 and have seen 155mph on the speedo- not sure what this equates to in KMH but hope this helps,ps you really need to hug the tank at those kinds of speeds!!!!!!!

    FFS! Go back and READ what we have said - and also note the smileys - we are having a laugh - not insulting you.

    I didnt call YOU a troll directly and neither did i call you a wanker - if i wanted to insult you honey - i think i could find better ways than that! :lol:

    Ive got to say that reading all of this has really cheered my nightshift up-I love bikes,dont matter what sort,modded or not so long as we are out riding and havin a laugh! Handie needs to chill out and work out what he wants, really enjoyed lookin at all your rides,Im useless at modding,but appreciate a nice job,made a mess of a superdream alot of years ago,

    Keep modding/riding/havin a laugh-Shiny side up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Fazer fz6

    in Naked

    Posted

    hey all, Im currently riding a 125 and will obviously be looking to upgrade once passing my test. My point is that I have been thinking about getting a fazer fz6, however I wanted to know whether this would be too much bike for me as a first 'big' bike or would it be a perfectly viable option?

    cheers

    Hi G-funk,

    Its sll about what you want from your bike,sports bikes are great fun but even 600 sports can be uncompromising and a bit scary when you aint used to them. The FZ6 is a great all round bike-yeah it'll tour all day in comfort,but does go like the clappers and will embarrass people on 600 sports machines on the twisties(once you've gained alot of experience!)

    I got a Thundercat as my 1st 600 and was comfy but could still keep up with faster tools.

    Like all things- test one see if it feels good then get to know it see what it can do,Gradually!!

    Its all in ya right hand!!! ps iv had R1s & various other bikes over the years so class myself as experienced-just got a FZ1 and still scare myself witless but love it-Enjoy

    FZ1 fly screens????

    in Naked

    Posted

    Hi, I am new to this site, traded my 56 Blade in for an FZ1 N and I love it, anyway, I am in the same boat as you, looking for new bits and a screen being one item, I have found this in my trawling, personally I prefer this, the Powerbronze screen does nothing for me so hope this helps. Cheers :rolleyes:

    HI Fzerberdee,

    Cheers for that-Id seen the Ermax one at jesters, I think its gonna be a toss up between that one and a Puig one if i can find one!!??, the powerbronze one looks better on the bike than on website but nowhere near as nice as the other options!!!

    Thanks again

    Summer Motorbike gloves

    Can anyone recommend a good pair of summer gloves and were to get them from/

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Kirkie,

    Ive previously used joe rocket,Hein Gerike & Rst summer gloves, All canny but the HG ones failed me in a crash, just bought some Halvarssons short summer gloves & apparently they are the highest rated for safety-but like another member suggested go to a trustworthy gear shop & try a few pairs on,they vary loads by price/fit/strength etc, happy hunting!

    FZ1 fly screens????

    Hi all,

    Ive recently bought my FZ1abs and am after a fly screen to hopefully give me a bit of protection from the windblast. Ive seen a Puig screen on other FZ1s but cant seem to find them on line anywhere, hope some of you can help me out or let me know of a good alternative-my neck can only take so muh!!!!!!!!!!!
