Hi This is my Fz1n that I bought recently; I have wanted one of these for a long time, and it is a joy to ride after the pain of the Ducati's clip ons ! I am hoping to trace the first owner as I believe it was him that bought and fitted all the bolt on parts. i have had a bit of time to look the bike over and work out what's been fitted. This is what I've discovered so far; Racefit "Growler" Titanium race exhaust Dymag Ultrapro 7 spoke forged ally wheels "Braking" wavey discs Hyperpro RSC steering damper Usb Powercommander 3 with custom maps by BigCC Rizoma alloy chain guard Pazzo brake and clutch levers R&G frame sliders R&G cotton reel bobbins R&G tail tidy Carbon bar end mirrors Carbon front mudguard Carbon rear mudguard Carbon tank shroud Custom LED tail light with integral indicators Talon sprocket Hyperpro fork springs Dynojet kit Gilles chain adjusters Goodridge all round Custom exhaust hanger Custom oil filler cap It's nice that there really isn't anything I would change or bolt on to the bike, as it's all been done. I think this one is a keeper !! Dusty

Hi, I found the phone number of the second owner on a receipt from BigCC, so gave him a ring to see if I could find out more about the bike. The first owner worked for Yamaha, and did a lot of the mods. He sold the bike when he moved abroad for work. It came from the Dorchester-on -Thames/ Oxford area I believe. The second owner, Rod, bought the bike and fitted standard bars back on as it had Renthalls fitted, plus he had the Dynojet kit and Powercommnder fitted. It also had expensive rearsets fitted, but Rod couldn't get on with them so sold them and bought brand new front and rear footrest assemblies from Yamaha !! He has failing health, he's 70, and only did about 500 miles on it and kept it in his house !! He did a deal with Karl, the guy I bought it from, who lived round the corner from Rod, and he just rode around posing on it apparently for a month before deciding he wanted a Supermoto like his mate, so it went on ebay and I now have it. It's a stunning bike to ride, so comfy too, and the Dyno print out from BigCC shows 146 BHP, so plenty under the bonnet !! Dusty

Hi, Fancied a bit of a change regards the Fz1, so decided to put the original black mudguards and tank shroud on; They came with some spares with the bike, and cleaned up nicely. I think the bike looks better all black now. Dusty

Hi Not sure about Power commanders, I have never touched mine although I do have all the gubbins that go with it. It's got 3 custom maps but I've never played around with them - seems more than fast enough for me ! Dusty
