Cheque book FZ-1

After a year of saving, asking questions, googling the shit out of any models that took my eye and finally getting my ass into gear, I bought a FZ1N. I know I know, it's not a "real" fighter, but it's a start. Not really planning on any major mods, it's my first "big" bike so it's plenty quick enough. I do want a slip on though because the factory muffler is fuckin huuuuuge and its far too quiet. Other than that, it's basically just fat bars, mirrors, tidy up a few little things like indicators, grips etc. maybe even get the suspension dialled for my weight, then putting some serious kms on it.

Cheers
It's huge and probably really heavy. I'm gonna go carbon of some sort. But will wait for a good deal, shit like that is stupidly expensive here in oz

COngrats amigo! Great looking bike, minus the exhaust of course!

Ordered titanium (silver) coloured renthal fatbars, blue anodised pazzo levers, grips.

Need help with risers. Don't really know where to start coz the stock fz1 risers are 80-90mm+, I need an angle too. 1 inch higher and 1 inch back. Anyone able to provide links??

Gonna get blue Hel braided lines when I know what length I need. Being my first project I'm buying bits and pieces rather than modding or salvaging. Gotta say, online browsing is getting scary hahaha

A guy from Sydney is selling this Akro, already shortened 80mm. Gonna look mint on mine. Also canned the titanium renthals, got driven carbon bars instead

They're hardly a custom "fighter" , but damn they're an awesome bike. Plenty fast enough for me, handle well and as soon as I grow a pair/learn some shit, it will make an awesome base for customising

Sweet bike bro!! Love the chin fairing!!

My buddy has a '07 but no chin fairing and it just looks like it's missing something

That one isn't mine, the exhaust off it is the exact one I bought today, that's why I put it up. Will be fitting it as soon as it comes through the mail. I agree though, definitely need the chin fairing. At $600aud it's not gonna happen anytime soon, fuck yamaha Australia!!!!

i like ur stocker much better than the 2 u posted

 

[Notyetafighter]

Funnily enough I agree, BUT- I wanna change it because I don't want my bike to look like 10,000 other stockers. It's either a light swap or a tail swap. I'm not capable of the tail as yet.
