i've got some of those heavier bar end weights,stock can with cables,and a stock windscreen.i'm just lookin to clean out.the stuffs heavy.maybe 2omebody in southeast texas needs it?$50 for the weights,$50 for the can,windscreen $10.

i had a first year 2003 xb9s.i still regret gettin rid of that bike.super cool ride and i never eally had any issues in 16000 miles.sorry to see them go under but you could see it coming.

08 grey fz-1.9300 miles.holeshot short street slip-on.zero gravity tinted shield.heavy bar-end weights.yamaha spools(woo-hoo),new michelin rear pilot sport,180/55 16.Priced to sell.$6000.graves fender eliminator.

i like my 09.runs great,the bar shape sucks,looks good.the only beef i have the handlebar is shaped funny and causes my right hand to go to sleep after a short time.i'm gonna try some gel grips and then a different handlebar.i never keep a bike much over 2 years or so anyway,so i'm sure the next...

the only thing i might say is watch the exhaust mount,the circular straps that wraps around the can.broke 2 straps on the 2 brothers exhaust i had on my 919.never did figure out why.sold the exhaust then the bike.

i got a 180/55 17 mounted today.pilot power,old style.hopefully it will last a little longer than 4000 miles but we'll see.

it's really easy once you get it unbolted.it took me a little while to rig a license plate light,that was the worst part.i used a Graves fender eliminator.

anybody go from a 190/50 to a 180/55?did your bike ride much different.i can't believe the fz-1 really needs a 190 tire.

my 08's got 8400 miles.bought february 08.i worked a bunch at work so the miles are low.i've probably got maybe 50,000 miles on different bikes in the last 10 years since i got back to riding serious.

mx4t mobil 1 for me since 2000 miles.i like to think good oil is cheap motors are expensive.no clutch slippage so far at 8000 miles.

if u drain the oil on the centerstand and fill it up with the recommended amount it'll be over full.loosen the drain plug on the centerstand if u need to but it's gotta be on the sidestand for all the old oil to drain out.i did it twice seein as i'm too hard headed to get the idea the 1'st...

price i got mine for $9226 OTD.texas tax and such,6.25%.that was in early february.i think they needed a sale and i just hit em right.8500 plus tax and sundries i think it was.they had said 9600 a couple months before.

holeshot here's a pic i took today

just installed a Holeshot 14" black street slip-on from Dale Walker.Fit perfect,love the sound so far,not too loud like some,well made.thats just my $.02 though.i wanted a Graves but i just couldn't justify the extra dough just for looks.

fender eliminator i used a graves.not the cheapest but built well.had to rig a license plate light to keep the police away.
