Battered Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 This my FZR1000. As you can see, it's totally standard apart from braided hoses, polished frame, black screen, and some god awful shitty blue handlebar end weights. Which I removed and threw away. Oh yeah, he fitted mini inicators too. They were only push in cheapos that the previous owner fitted, so weren't actually weights as such. There's no extra vibration through the bars though, but I can now get through smaller gaps!!
Battered Posted August 5, 2011 Author Posted August 5, 2011 Cheers guys, I'm debating whether or not to put a race pipe on it. I love the sound of them, but I'm also loving the ability to open it up without every copper hearing it when I give it some. Decisions, decisions........
bonzoid60 Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Nice FZR! You could try a can with a removable baffle, loud pipes may save lives but they can attract a lot of unwarranted attention!

weimieman Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Get the new can on it and set off some car alarms! I used to love that going through the centre of Kendal!!! Shouldn't have the damn things set on such a sensitive level
fatcat Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 I do like old bikes that havent been messed with me want it
StuartWags Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Sadly, it did not look like this when i brought it, around 2000 miles later, 01-05-2012 Exhaust = rotted disk pads = stuffed all round fork seals = well leaking tyres = knackered rear suspension linkage = making bad noises body panels = various cracks, scrapes, been droped on LHS with bits broken off screen and generally neglected charging system = dead overall = very run down it is amazing how this bike was transformed in such a short period of time brought as spares or repair as found pictures here http://s1121.photobucket.com/albums/l506/StuartWags/
