Will do. Hopefully I can soon report back with a picture. Thanks to all for your help!

It's a totally stock bike from what I've been told. He says it's imaculate and always kept in an air conditioned garage. Found out today that his bottom dollar price is $4200. If it looks and runs like he says it does then that seems to be a decent price?? What do you guys think?

Do you have a bicycle? We could trade!

Hi, hoping you FZ1 owners can guide me a little. I've been looking at FZ6 bikes, used ones, and have now come across a used FZ1 where I live. Up to this point I haven't looked at or researched them because I simply thought they were way more bike than I need. The Fz1 seems to be similar in...
