    Looking at buying a "new" 2014 FZ1

    Howdy, I am looking at buying an FZ1 - I have owned a bunch of different motorcycles in my time including an FZR6. Currently I have an older Honda V45 cruiser and I am lusting after an FZ1. So looking around the area I have found a few recent FZ1s in the $5 to $6K range - maybe 2009 or...

    October Dawn till' Dusk

    With fall in full swing and a rare warm Thanksgiving weekend coming, I planned a long day (Dawn till Dusk) ride as a sort of Grand Finale to the season. Most of the time trying to get my ridding buddies together for a ride is akin to herding cats, but they must have sensed the impending end to...

    New FZ1

    Hey y'all. I just bought my FZ1 last week and am loving it so far. It's a 2012 with about 4,000 miles on it now. I bought it from the original owner. Every time I ride, I'm amazed how smooth and capable this bike is. I've never ridden anything this new, so it's quite an improvement...

    2015 Bike Night

    I went to what may be the last bike night this season. There is snow forecast for tomorrow, not that it will stay yet. Nights are getting colder and a decent number of bikes came out. The usual classic stuff, a few custom Harleys, and the largest cluster of Eighties Yamahas that I have seen...

    Another Colorado Ride

    So my son came home from Florida and we set out on a quick little 4 day/3 night ride. He hasn't been on a bike in about 3 years or so since he sold his FZ1 when he moved to Fla. Luckily, we have an extra bike in the garage that he could borrow.... We headed out Monday morning towards Gunnison...

    2008 Shift Red FZ1

    Everybody, I am regrettably listing my FZ1 for sale. I have thoroughly enjoyed riding this bike and am going to really miss it. I am selling because I don't ride it much anymore and this bike is set up too nice to sit in a garage. A couple years ago I witnessed my father rear end a car on his...

    No time...

    for riding! This is very sad to say but I've had the 2013 bike since I bought it new with zero miles for one year now. Last night, I managed to crest 2,020 miles on the ODO... one year.... I've never owned a bike and put so few miles on it! Life happened, so much going on right now...

    Hello everyone, I just realized I started posting without introducing myself, how rude... I just bought my first bike after a 45 years hiatus in riding. My last bike was a Triumph 250 mono. How time flies! Not getting any younger, I did not want to go through the 250-500-750 training/upgrade...
