    I think it is wrong!? but i still do it

    Here in AUS, lane splitting is not defined as illegal, however, changing lanes without indicating or sharing a lane with another vehicle is considered illegal. Having said that, I lane split every chance I get. In my opinion, if I get busted for it, it's worth the $80 and 1 demerit point...

    Riding backpacks

    Kriega A little pricey but I have to recommend the Kriega. There are a few different sizes with heaps of optional add-ons to extend the pack for those long weekends. Other than that, it takes ALL the weight off your shoulders, is super stable and has a great retention system. Highly...

    PCIII or PCV

    Hi all and thanks for all your feedback and suggestions. The chaps from Dynojet contacted me and advised to purchase the PCV as there was no change between the 2008 / 2009 models of the FZ1. It is simply the fact that the PCV was introduced in 2009 that it is classified in their catalogs as...

    PCIII or PCV

    Hi all, I have a 2009 FZ1N (Aussie model). I am looking to purchase a Power Commander to compliment my other mods. I have a slight dilemma however: The Bike model is February 2009 (not first registration date - that was February 2010), but the manufacture date is Aug 2008. So for the...

    I'm a MOTUL man myself but then I change oil and filter every 5000km.

    Backfiring when decelerating and then accelerating

    Shouldn't hurt, as the EXUP valve only quietens the exhaust tone at low to medium rpm for compliance IMO. Looking inside the pipe you will find the valve / flap is fully open without the cables connected. As with an aftermarket pipe, it is not required. Have a look at Copperdawg's aftermarket...

    Backfiring when decelerating and then accelerating

    This is normal, and most noticeable with the stock pipe when the previous owner has gutted the CAT in the header pipe. Otherwise you probably wouldn't notice it at all. My mate just bought a used FZ1N with stock pipe and lo and behold we can also hear it backfire now and again - gutted CAT...

    Gday All

    Welcome Aussie, we go out for a scoot round Mt Mee, Mt Glorius, Mt Lindsay or Canungrah. Just beware the revenue raisers! If I make it back to Brissy tomorrow, I'll flick you a mail to join us as Saturday is promising to be a sunny day - Woo-Hoo! By the way, I just ordered my Yoshi TRC slip-on...

    Stoner still tops And that's another one for Stoner...in the British wet. Must be something he got from growing up in the Big Wet of Queensland right?!!:noworries:

    Anyone Considering A Carbon Yoshimura TRC

    I love the look! That's made up my mind and my order will be in shortly. I reckon the Yosh has the looks and the "business", not to mention future upgrades...

    Anyone Considering A Carbon Yoshimura TRC

    TRC shorter? Your photos look great. I have seen other photos that show the pipe a lot longer. Can you quote your part number and confirm this is just the slip-on and not the full system? Thanks

    Rizoma Handle Bars

    I second that - I've had my Rizomas with 60mm risers, bar ends and sportline grips for over 8 months now. They changed this bike for me!

    Some handlebar suggestions (Rizoma risers)

    I have the 60mm Rizoma risers with the Rizoma conical bars. What a huge improvement over stock! I went all the way and fitted Rizoma sportline grips and long Rizoma bar-ends. Looks a treat! PS. The 60mm risers accommodate the damper - 42mm don't.:tup:

    Calling all Aussies, Where you from?

    Hey all, I'm from Brissie and just got back from a fang around Mt Mee / Maleny, Woodford, et al. A bit wet up to Woodford but then a pie at CJ's and plenty of dry roads to bring up the spirits. :thewave:
