Though I am a part of FZ1 Forums, nothing beats the group here.  I've met many friends, because of this forum.  My brother and I have 3 bikes total in the garage: a 2015 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R 636, 2014 Yamaha FZ1 and the 2015 Yamaha FZ-07.  The FZ-07 was my learner bike, and what a great bike it still is.  I don't think we'll be getting rid of that thing.  It just keeps going without much issues if any.

 

This thread though, will be about my second bike, the 2014 Yamaha FZ1.  Please enjoy the progression of this bike.

 

I purchased this bike with 878 miles on the odometer from a consignment Motorcycle Shop.  It came with only one mod, a Yoshimura R-77 Slip-On.

 

My 2014 Yamaha FZ1:

When I brought it home, I installed Techspec Tank Grips and Woodcraft Frame Sliders (less than 24 hours of ownership)

Put the F Trip to the test today. It seems I had a few more miles I could have gone...

Got tired of losing my garage door opener to the freeway, so I got one more permanent.

April 6, 2017 I bought the bike used with 878 miles.  7 months later, and I've now got 15k miles on the bike.  Love this bike.

Installed a new to me Mivv GP Black Slip-On, brand new Copperdawg SS2 Windscreen and DV8R Belly Pan.  Aero parts completely transformed the look of this bike:

There’s been some changes recently...

Changed the Levers to CRG and swapped out the stock metal LighTech Heel Guards to Carbon Fiber.

The highest speed recall button:

Added a DynoJet Quick Shifter.  Simply install, plug leads into PC5 and turn the thing on via LapTop.

Jeff,

Not sure if you do track days, and perhaps a bit late. But Yamaha is sponsoring a Sonoma raceway track day event after the Moto America weekend and occurs on Monday 12th.  Check-in with the noted local sponsors and ask if they any spots available for the Monday Yamaha only day for$150. It's a 2-day event but Tues all bikes are allowed and fills up quickly.
