FZ1 For the rider who likes sportbike performance but prefers more comfortable ergonomics. The FZ1 offers a more traditional upright seating position, yet sacrifices nothing in terms of engine and handling performance.

Here's my '06! I love it stock, but I'll most likely get the fender eliminator kit at some point. Need exhaust, but that's gonna wait till I can afford to get a PC3 along with it and get it mapped then and there.



Did a lil HDR and an infrared filter in photoshop.

keep an eye out for frame cracks at the weld. it is problematic on those bikes. yamaha will fix the issue on some bikes, but i think it has something to do with serial #'s.

Its not a big of a problem. Frame cracking issue has been overblown. Only a few have suffered. If you want cracked frames then go see suzuki forums.

parmell, that looks pretty sweet! Looks like you've got a awesome rear seat cowling, but I can't see the whole thing. Maybe a zoom-out would do the trick?

Default Updated shots

Since I put up the zero miles photo from before I even rode it....

TB can installed. Stock FE cut (before and after shots below). LARS airbox mod, AIS block off, de-screened the stock air filter. Since these pics, added T-REX sliders.
