    Sold the FZ1 and brought this home.

    I like a couple Ducati's also....................except the cost of maintenance.

    Sold the FZ1 and brought this home.

    I really like it, I had the bars 1" lower than stock on the FZ and it just wasn't enough. The wind on my chest at cruising speed actually keeps the weight off my wrists pretty well. I'm 43 years old and it doesn't bother me. Of course my longest ride so far has only been 150ish miles.

    Sold the FZ1 and brought this home.

    I probably have 100,000-150,000 miles on bikes over the years and to think a new rider would own an R1 is frightening.

    Sold the FZ1 and brought this home.

    Unbelievable, the FZ1 had a ton of pull all the way to the top end but not like this. Makes the FZ6 and the FZ1 I had feel like they were made out of wood.

    broken fuel gauge = no reserve

    He is right by saying "contaminated fuel" can cause problems...........guess what, almost all fuel has contamination in it. Whether it's water, dirt, etc.

    broken fuel gauge = no reserve

    I burned a fuel pump up on a diesel truck about 20 years ago running it out of fuel, cost me $1000.00. Every since then 1/4 tank means empty. I apply the same wisdom to my bike.

    Apparently i'm crazy, but wont give up! (ice riding)

    Road salt stops me from even thinking of riding in cold weather. That **** is terrible for your bike and there's no way mine will ever see it.

    MI area bikers

    I will add! I can't say anything real bad about Nicholsons but have never purchased from them either. I wouldn't spend my money at Great Lakes if it was the last dealer in Michigan! They are far to busy to answer a question on anything. I bought some riding equipment for my son there last fall...
