    I just saved 500 dollars a year by switching to Progressive!

    So I am about to pick-up my FZ1 today, and knowing that I needed insurance I decided to get some quotes. I've had my SV650 covered by GEICO for the last four years and I figured if I added the FZ I would get a good deal. Right now I pay about $40 a month for liability plus $1,000 deductibles for...

    Hey all, I'm doing some suspension pre-planning for when I get my FZ, and I wanted to see if anyone was running the 8975 shock from Penske. I've heard this is a newer shock, and after doing a forum search nothing popped up. I was leaning towards the 8900E, but the 8975 is listed specifically...

    Hey all, I am in the market for a 1st gen FZ1 and I'm trying to see if one I am looking at is worth the money. The ad for the bike is here: 2005 Yamaha FZ1 The owner is asking 5k for the bike without all the touring parts, but I think his price might be a little high. I have seen some...

    Want to buy an FZ1, is a 2006 worth it?
