Here are a few pics of my FZ. No upgrades, accept for what I quess you would call cruise control. I am wanting to put a Puig sport light smoke windsheild on for better wind protection.
some pics of my 05 really fast blue

Nice! It's really clean! Are you *sure* you ride it? 
Frame sliders?? I like the grips and bar ends. What brands are they?

Crap, my poor 05 looks like a wreck next to that thang...and i'm a long ways away. Geeze even the shiny gold headers are shinier than mine. Boy do I have some work cut out for me after work friday.
I didn't realize until now the older FZ's (I have an '07) had silver engines. Byootiful! :thumbup:

yep I ride it every day unless it rains. No frame sliders yet, but I am looking to get some probably off e-bay.
As far as the bar ends, I have no idea, they were on the bike when I bought it about 2 months ago. I did see a post on here a few weeks ago and some guy was asking about a certain brand and if they were any good. I went to the link he had put up and they seemed to match what i've got.
Thanks for the compliments:rockon:

The silver engines are actually pre-06. My 2006 has a black engine and whatnot. :Sport:
Side note: I'm definitely cleaning my baby this weekend. :rockon:
Heck my 6 month old '07 looks like crap compared to his! I need to get out the bucket and sponge!

I ride mine a lot more than i clean it...i ride everyday, rain or shine, hot or cold...I dont think i could ever get mine that shiny again. What kind of polish/soap are you guys using. Ever since they discontinnued the Honda Polish I haven't been polishing it only washing it with car wash solution and letting it dry in the sun.....LOL i dont even towl mine off...it gets abused...:thumbup:

What brand are those grips? Comfort level? Cost? The usual questions.

Sorry, I have no idea what brand they are, they were on there when I got the bike. Comfort level is awesome, no vibration at all.

I've been using Turtle wax on the tank, grab rails and above the tail light.

Man, I can't believe no one has answered the question about the grips and bar ends!
It looks like the grips have Grip Puppies on them. I've got a set but never put them on...I need to do that!
And jrf, you may have something you had no idea you had. Those bar ends are definitely Throttlemeisters. Try this...the one on the right side (throttle side), see if the bar end will turn back with the throttle grip, like you're accelerating. If it does, you'll probably notice that the throttle stays where you put it. Throttlemeisters are throttle lock bar ends...in other words, you've got cruise control!!! Holy crap...
The do make just bar ends that don't have the throttle locking function, but I don't know of anyone that's got just those. Dude, those things are like $150 a set...you've hit the jackpot!

Stumbles, I've been doing exactly that for the last half hour...looking at the Throttlemeister website, trying to decide if they're worth $147! Man, that a lot of coin, but I've never heard anyone say one bad word about them.

Yea I believe that, thats what they are. I've used it a few times and it is really nice. The grips themselves are made of a spongy type material.
I quess I got a really good deal on it from what I have seen. I only paid $3800 for it
The cheapst i could find for an 05 was $5299.
