The FZ1 will have lower range as it has both higher fuel consumption and lower tank capacity. And liter bikes suck at slow city riding during the summer, your legs will cook. Wanted to buy a FZ1 GT and extend it's tank a few years ago but gave up as my FZ6 was already sorted out (R6 fork and...
Loose is better than tight (up to a point) on engines that don't really rev that much. There is a risk of having the valves bounce around and wreak havoc, and the more rpm the higher the risk. At the very least, there will be accelerated wear as the cam lobes will smash into the valve buckets...
Few riders or drivers actually understand what a late apex is (or even that it matters what trajectory you take through a turn), and most people don't take early apexes because they try to get a "race line", but because they see the turn and their little hamster brain tells them "watch out! the...
Not sure if this was mentioned beforehand (too lazy to read all replies) but I'd bet that the previous owner tightened the crap out of the 5 clutch basket screws, elongating and weakening those threaded tubes, which then lasted... until they didn't.

PS:
NOBODY sells at a loss. I can tell you that medium sized stores have around 40% margin on bike gear. Revizilla likely has around 50% or higher. So for them it was either:
1- sell this dude the gloves at lower price and win $70 instead of $120 while increasing the likehood of customer...
It's extremely easy to "go the extra mile" (aka throw free stuff at customers and price match) for a large corporation. They have access to much better deals from manufacturers, they have access to low or even negative interest loans (aka free or almost free money), they have access to top law...
What is there to "rehearse" at an wedding, which is basically an overrated black tie party?
Have the attendees not been to any social gathering before, so they need to "rehearse" or else they would be acting like jungle savages, eating like dogs out of dog bowls, scratching themselves like...
There's absolutely no way I'd make the gamble of replacing a known used and working vehicle with a used and unknown vehicle while on only 300€/month and (as you put it) jack shit mechanical knowledge. Neither would I pay my yearly income on a vehicle of any type, less so just for more power and...
