    2009 FZ1 new to me

    Hi I disconnected the 02 sensor when I fitted a power commander and had no issues with a light, I did however fit an 02 eliminator in the plug eventually just in case , so I doubt removing the cat would have much effect either

    Uneven rear pad wear

    I can only think that maybe the piston is sticking when warmed up making the pad bind slightly, then ok when cooled down again,, I'll give it another good clean and try and monitor it during a ride

    Transmission noise

    Morning I've noticed the chain has become very noisy/whiny over the last few months , it was replaced about 10k ago. Every thing seems ok wear wise , I'm wondering if it's worth trying an oe front sprocket on it with the damper to so if this helps any thoughts , experiences? Cheers

    bought a clean 07 fz1

    bought a clean 07 fz1

    Abs light problem after battery change

    It sounds like it detected a low voltage to the abs, I'm surprised it hasn't reset itself with the battery fitted ! Is the battery charging in the bike ok ?
