That is all.

I hear if you get one, there's no need to go to the track!

It's basically a naked R1, isn't it?!

Yep, and the only thing cooler than an R1 is a naked R1.

I thought only back-a$$, inbred Nebraskans and Utah-hippies rode those...

Hey, tubbs, I just got done pushing mine back home. And I've got a mullet, not hippie hair.
Don't you have a protest to attend?

Tigerblade, do you have no shame?

BDA, I see that homo Baketech put you up to using the desecrated avatar while he's away. He claims he's going to be up here riding with me on Saturday. If you guys never see nor hear from him again, I'll have an alibi.

And Tigger, before you get too mouthy, remember I'm within easy striking distance of the greater Columbia area.

Shame? No.

I had lunch with Baketech yesterday. He's on his way...

I looked at the weather, and there appears to be a huge low pressure zone over Homaha..... is it bad weather, or just the effects of the FZ suckiness

See you Saturday....

BTW....I stopped thru Columbia and got the word on a few of you......

We might be riding in a pittering 45 degree rain on Saturday, but unlike Tinkerbell Tiggerblade, I'm not made of sugar, will not readily melt, and will brave the ill weather to break in the new ride proper like.

I've ridden in the rain plenty, Johnny Law.

But I am made of sugar.

FZ-1 is with lower comp., ratio, different cams, geared differently & it comes out to be with better torque at lower revs, but does not have the HP of the R-1. Fairly basic moves of sportbikes changed over to skelton form. In most cases with the change in the riding position & the dual one-piece saddle it makes a more comfortabe ride for a pillion rider.
