Beautiful FZ1-N! That bike looks like it would create a lot of buzz :rolleyes: (sorry, I'm tired and couldn't resist):zzz:

Seriously, a great looking bike. Thanks for the pictures and good luck!

Edit: To actually enter the contest, you need to go here: March 2011 - M.B.O.M -Contest and then click the 'Upload Photos' button near the top right and choose one picture to upload for the contest. Then, after voting is enabled, you'll need to go back to the same link and scroll all the way down to the bottom set of pictures, and then choose one of them to vote for (not your own).

Good luck and I hope this helped. If what I just said didn't make sense, OldSchool can explain it better...

The sound is fantastic but the euro3 normative that Fz1 respect with the original exhaust is a far remembrance.. sometimes I like call her "calabrone":in italian the insect similar to a bee,but doesn't make honey,is bigger and so angry!!
I dont know the correct name..:-( SORRY for my terrible english!!

I like your rear hugger (with the yellow center and the FZ1 cut out), how about a close up picture. It doesn't look like any that I know.
 
Okay Lee, I'm in. Went for a ride and had to post up a new shot of my bike.

Here's a shot of the Wifey practicing for 15 minutes in the cold weather. She's dying to ride some more. I'm happy for her, and she really hasn't lost much of her ability over the winter.

Next thing I knew, we were looking at a Ducai Monster and an Aprilia RSV4R. Neither came home with us thankfully.

That's the spirit!! I love the picture with the kid playing on the snow bank in behind the FZ.
 
Thanks Lee. Wifey likes that pic, too. Lexi (the kid) had her helmet, gloves, jacket, and everything else on and ready to go before I even knew what was happening. I was the last one ready to go, and that was cool.

Okay members, let's get some more shots up there. If my 6 year old can ride after they cleared the snow, we all can. She was a great reminder for me of some of the reasons I started riding in the first place all those years ago, and to see how excited she gets I know I should take every chance I get to enjoy what we all love so much.
 
No Way!!

So,if someone want to start a war of aftermarket parts,I give an advise to you: I perfectly know Fz1 and from the 5 years of model life,I saw only one bike better than mine(in sense of complete..the better bike is always ours bike!!).
After the list of my modifications(3 hours to writes!!)an attachment of Fz1 Febur,the N version that Febur factory did for 2007 Yamaha fest,and the bike that ispired me.
A note:Yamaha wanted this bike like a tribute for the 50th factory anniversary and Febur did it with no budget limits!
20000€ only for the parts are a lots but indipendently from the money,some modifications doesn't like me..first the colour! Only a Febur part is in my brain:the marchesini gold weels,but not the magnesium set because are to delicates for the street.
Now I'm waiting for the irregular stroke Fz1 so I think that my up-grades are finished!

I knew someone would catch that. She has a nice pair of Alpinestars that she got for Christmas but she chose to go light since it was only going to be for a few minutes.

Ah good, cause I'd hate to have to post the picture of a rider who didn't wear proper boots......(it make a few guys on the FZ6 side want to yack!)
