New here from Calgary!

Hi guys

After a long 7 years without owning a motorcycle i decided to get back into it since i moved back to Calgary and the registration are much cheaper here than the east coast ($50 vs $1200) :bow down:

My last bike was a 2006 R1 but i grew older and i'm not that much of a cowboy anymore + my back is getting a little too old for those racing bikes.

Since i always liked the Yamaha products, i decided to go with the Fz1. I am actually picking it up from the dealership tomorrow, it's a pre-owned 2010 Red Fz1 Te (it has the side fairings and bigger windscreen) The bike is mint, i guess the previous owner was a short guy and drop it once on the side while parking it (been repaired) and decided to return it to the dealership 4 years later with only 900km. That thing is Brand new...and i paid cheap for it.

I am already looking at doing the Euro naked bike conversion and getting rid of the fairings, i really dig the look.

Can't wait to get it on the mountain roads.

Cheers
Pat
 
Welcome Pat, from the border city, Lloydminster. You should be able to find a buyer for the fairing and lowers to offset the naked costs. TE was only available in Canada.

Thanks Ranger, i didn't know that. i'll definitely sale all the fairings/headlights since once i do the conversion, i won't go back. I choosed this bike because it offers more seating space compared to the newer naked bikes out there. there is also better options for for hard bags. basically i wanted a fun bike to ride in the city but could also be comfortable on longer road trip with the gf.

i'll let you know if i go your way. this
