    BT016 Two Observations

    Correct. First introduced over a year ago, initially only to the Japanese market, they incorporate the nanotech, develoed from moto.gp, used in forming and injecting the rubber. Is supposed to provide a more uniform distribution of the silicon and carbon components which in turn keeps the...

    Gen II Radiator Mod

    Changed mine after damaging the original in a crash. Is also said that the R1 radiator doesn't suffer from the chills in winter with the extra depth below the intake.

    Gen II Radiator Mod

    04-06 R1 radiator works. Can't transfer fans though so make sure to get the rad with fans. Few things on install, if you go this route. 1. Fans run opposite wiring to the FZ so just swap them around or they stay on 2. Hoses fit but need a turn, pull and push here and there. I've been...

    My new Magical Racing Clear/CFRP screen

    NEXRAY front fender = brace yourself and hide your credit card before clicking the link Block-offs courtesy of GEEZER @ FZ1OA. Don't think he's so active making them or on the board anymore though, unfortunately.

    Gen III FZ1

    Personally, I'd like to see a totally new take on pannier case attachment, adjustable screen, real suspension, reduced unsprung mass, shorter 1st and taller 6th gears, class leading 24-5litre fuel tank, switchable mode power/economy/torque delivery, accessory power outlets for and aft, HIDs or...

    FZ1N with FZ8 tail

    Should be interesting when facing off with another 'FZ8' :spank2: Can't wait to see the tail on. Does the 8 come in the same color? FZ1N tail is relatively straight forward compared to the 8 and a few hundred bucks cheaper too.

    February 2012 M.B.O.M. - Winner BewareTheFuzz

    Thanks for the votes all :yes: It's a little known pass running over a ridge between two hamlets on a peninsula south east of Tokyo in the prefecture of Chiba. It's primarily a locals only shortcut and doesn't receive much maintenance. This photo was taken a week or so aftet the tail of a...

    Speedometer

    No idea how to adjust that one, sorry. But, is it really off? Reason i ask is the air temp is taken inside the airbox and for my bike, runs 5-7℃ above real ambient temps in summer and 2-5 above in winter.

    Speedometer

    How about just swapping the speedometer intetnals? The odometer total is stored in the speedometer unit not ECU. I have 2 speedometers and have swapped them back and forth a couple of times. One of the speedometers has a cracked case so I only swap the internal board.

    Performance Coatings Plus

    Yep, inside and out is standard procedure. They thoroughly sandblast the surface then high pressure hit with some metallic surface impregnation medium before being dipped and baked. The Graves was new but used follows the same procedure with supposedly same results. I've had car headers done...

    Performance Coatings Plus

    I got them to do the satin black 10% coating on my Graves. Reasonable price and quality. Not the best but got a little better than I paid for so no complaints. Needed a little sandpaper here and patience there but the coating has held up well and done its part. Basically seen reduced heat from...

    PR3 Test Video

    Riding buddy of mine on an FJR chewed thru a front PR3 in 1800km! He usually gets 4000 out of a PR2. Reported they were excellent in the wet but very mushy and vague when riding spiritedly in the dry. Too vague. Didn't go down but had some interesting slips :-0 Odd thing was the chunks of...
