    2008 fz1 help

    Nice, me too. I just got my Akrapovic Slip on and a power commander and am waiting to take it to get dyno tested and tuned professionally. I'm looking to move to Ft. Lauderdale area at the end of the year. It would be cool to find another FZ rider around the area to ride with'

    sorry, had to comment

    I felt like kid at Christmas when I came home from work today and saw that my Hexogonal Akrapovic Carbon Fiber Exhaust was waiting for me. Man...... What a great feeling? Giggidy Giggidy Goo!! How many of you FZ1 riders out there have similar stories about longfully awaiting some type...

    Vista givng you problems??

    My MacBook Is upgrdable to 4Gigs of RAM. The 17 inch monster they came out with is upgradable to 8GB, but thats a little bit rediculous and expensive.

    Vista givng you problems??

    Yeah, I also like the artists you mentioned as well. I used to like tiesto more, but everyone in the industry that I've met says he's kind of a dick. I also enjoy Sinclair, Cox as well. It sounds like you enjoyed it there at your days at KU. I use the Torq Exponent DJ Controller by M-Audio...

    Vista givng you problems??

    That's the same type of music I play/mix etc. I love some deep house with tribal drums and bongo types of beats. I also like taking a dirty house beat and mixing it with a solid 80's hit from the past. I'll also have to agree with you BroHay, the music in the 70's and early 80's was way more...

    Got a question for you FZ1 Veterans out there.

    Nah, it's not me, but I hope to one day mount a camera on my FZ1 and post some of the vids to the forum. Once I get a little bit better of a rider. I fortunately get to ride these roads every weekend. I am very lucky, and don't think I don't know it. I have only been riding since May 1st, so...

    Got a question for you FZ1 Veterans out there.

    YouTube - 180 Run here is one from hwy 180, which I rode for the first time two weeks ago. Notice all the riders he passes going the opposite way......this rode is actually connected to hwy 129, which is the one you posted earlier Hellgate. Please tell me what you all think of it. Let me...

    Got a question for you FZ1 Veterans out there.

    It goes all the way north to Dragon Tails in TN, which is a Famous riding spot which includes over 300 turns in only 11 miles. I hear it's wikid, but have yet to take the trip. The section I ride is 15 or 20 miles and has two lanes so you don't have to worry about getting stuck behind an RV or...

    Greetings!

    I have an 08 FZ1 as well. I'm also a newbie to the site and am looking to learn from the rest of the FZ1 owners out there as well. I'm also a chiropractor and have seen all too often the woes and recovery of going through spinal surgery. I would like to welcome you here. Everyone in here is...

    Vista givng you problems??

    It does take a min to get used to, that I have to admit. I actually used it to load a map to my FZ1 from my power commander III this past weekend. Granted, I was using parallells desktop and XP to do this. Here is the verdict, don't spend the extra bucks on a Mac Book Pro if your not a...

    Whats The Best Oil For My FZ1N ?, Semi Synthetic Or Full Synthetic ?

    whats wrong with being brand loyal? I didn't see anyone posting about the Yamaha oil. I use the Yamalube Full Synthetic and love the way the gears shift and transition. I've had no issues with it. You guys are making me want to second guess my choice. If there is a better one that is preferred...

    Got a question for you FZ1 Veterans out there.

    That sounds awesome man. I wish you the best luck with the aprilia PC3. I'm sure you will find a way. I have no doubts I'll be sure to post the results, pending I am ready to get on that next level. I should probably get myself some leather pant's with sliders to match my jacket first...

    Nice Vids Your a hell of a rider. I'd like to learn a few things from you about riding. I'm in North GA and ride there every weekend. How often do you head down that way. I'm a NC native myself, and have been to Boone many times. Hope we can ride sometime. hit me up if ur planning a trip.

    Vista givng you problems??

    I hate to say it, but my macbook has no issues, and with the "parallels desktop" software, it runs Window XP better than a PC. I've had many computers over the years, and built many myself, and Mac really makes it hard for me to defend the PC as I once did.

    wow, that's pretty impressive man, thank you so much for all the help and expertise. It would have taken months to learn what you've told me, or longer. : )

    Got a question for you FZ1 Veterans out there.

    Thanks a million man. awesome reply hellgate. I found one less than an hour from my house that does the fp tuning. I only have one question, what is an average price to do this, I really don't see myself doing more performance mods than the exhaust, PCIII, and an aftermarket air filter. Or are...

    Got a question for you FZ1 Veterans out there.

    That is some great advice. So where do I get the Factory Pro guys to do it? Do you know of any in the southeast?
