Layed my fz1 down yesterday due to fast deceleration on a road with sand on it. To much front break! Watch the roads, a fun day ride endened up in a lot of good jokes from my buddies. I found out I can still break dance and do the head spin, LOL. No injuries due to good riding gear. Just a brused EGO!

Only 113 miles yet, but I just installed the lower cowl & trying to figure out how to install thses darn LP LED Flush Mounted Turn Signals...any suggestion? No screws or any accurate instruction. The packaging says "drill 2 holes in fairing...", but the website states "no drilling required, simply use stock back-plate." To which I have no clue...

does the speed sensor run off of the front wheel or is it in the transmission? would a sprocket change effect the speedo?

SPeed sensor runs off counter shaft, any change in gearing affects speedo.
