I'd like to pass along info on a couple items I picked up this year for the bike that I think everyone should be aware of and they are pretty darned inexpensive, especially for what they do.
The first is Speedbleders from Speed Bleeder Bleeding Brakes Bleeding Motorcycle Brakes Automotive Bleeder Screw Brake Bleeder They will make bleeding your brakes a whole lot easier and after using them, I'll equip all my vehicles with them. The price is only about $7 each and makes bleeding your brakes a simple one person job. The one for the FZ1 at least the 08 model is SB8125L M8X1.25. They have charts available for fitment to most vehicles.
The second item is Accupressure Safety caps for your tire's valve stem. They come in several pressure ratings and are very well built. They have a clear top that shows green when the proper pressure is in the tire, yellow when it's 5 lbs low and red when it's 10 lbs. low. I got mine for $3.24 each. They are available from AccuPressureCaps.com | Home. A simple glance at your valve stems each time you get ready to ride will tell you if you are ready to go or need to check for a leak. For less than $30 you can make your life a lot easier.
