Everyday
Comfort Coupled with Razor Sharp Handling and Open Class Power
Cycle World Magazine's "World's Best
Streetbike"
-- Oct. 2004
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.
Sometimes it feels sinful to hide an engine like the R1 derived,
20-valve, Genesis powerplant behind bodywork ... hence the FZ1.
Our “naked” bike, though, is fully decked out:
- Fully adjustable suspension
at both ends
- Four-piston monoblock calipers
- Light, three-spoke aluminum
wheels
- Wide, high-performance tires
The same semi-upright ergonomics that make
dawn `til dusk rides not just possible but highly enjoyable also
provide great leverage when the road turns twisty.
In the end, you can come at it from either
direction: practical transportation, or 140-horse sportbike.
Both paths will bring you around, eventually, to the one bike
that’s both. FZ1.
