At 70 000 klms I review the 2009 Yamaha FZ1n, Road and Track, Budget 1000cc Naked.

‪@WozzasSportsCruiserRides‬ How many klms on a Motorcycle is too many. My 2005 Fatboy had 189 000klms when I moved it on, so what can a Yamaha R1 engine do. We will see and the road and Track days.

[@DANTHETUBEMAN]

What a addrenelin ride that machine can be. You made good points for owning one of these.

[@germanshepherdlover2613]

I really love the FZ1. Cannot decide between the naked or faired version though. I grew up riding nakeds and currently ride a Honda Hornet 919 naked, so I am more used to riding nakeds. But I really love the look of the faired version FZ1S and think the extra wind protection would be great. It does feel funny turning the handle bars while the instruments are fixed and not moving with the handle bars.

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

You could have your fairing and Fz too! Dads joke's. They're a great, undervalued motorbike with the early r1 engine, detuned ecu up to 5500rpm, then, hold on. Best mod. Woolich Race tune will customise the ecu for best performance all round. There's a video on this on the channel. The suspension and brakes are very good being from the the r1 bike. I had mine tuned for my weight and style or riding, track days. This setting is stiff, however on long rides with ruggage it's awesome. Anyway, go and get one and don't forget to tell us about it. Just had my Fz1, 110,000klm service with new Michelin tyres as a present this week. The Fz1 just chased down a Big Red Kangaroo this morning running across the road. A tuned and serviced FZ-1 on new rudder is a very good bike to have fun on. Check the channel for plenty of info, cheers Mate, Wozza.

@@WozzasSportsCruiserRides I keep looking at Kawasaki z1000 and Ninja 1000 2010 models but for some reason I keep coming back to the FZ1.

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

So many great bike from 20plus years. Plenty of performance, handling and braked. Bang for buck. Good time to be riding.

[@lukegenesis]

Wozza! Thanks for your ongoing reviews of this bike. I’m currently looking at one with 90,000kms for a good price

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Good service history, check the inside of tank for rust. There a geeat bike. Thanks for your feedback.

[@Davy-lf4cj]

Lovely review, cheers from Queensland Australia 👍

[@hedgehog3900]

The condition of that bike is incredible. The headers are immaculate. My 2006 uk fz1 with 26k miles looks like a bloody shed next to that and i work hard at cleaning. Winter and road salt here kills metal.

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Thanks mate, I probably need to detail it a bit from when I first got it. Salt must reek havoc on bikes and cars. There a pretty awesome bike. Enjoy.

[@MRTPR]

Greeting from South Australia Mate. Really enjoyed the review. A very nice bike, my friend has one and just loves it. I have a GSX S 1000 and I have considered the tune just to smooth it out a bit at slower constant speed. I don't need any more power, I just would like it smoothed out a bit. Take care.

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Thanks mate, the GSX S1000 would love a tune to smooth it out. The Woolich stuff is really good. I don't know of a dyno tuner in South Australia however I'm sure there are some good Tuners available. Give me your feedback if you ever tune the beast.

[@MRTPR]

Thanks Mate will do.

[@scottb6815]

The FZ1 and the Suzuki Bandit 1250 are the best all rounders in the bike world

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Makes got a Bandit 1250. Definitely a great bike as well.

[@richardblaauwgeers4349]

I also own a fz1, i love it!

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Nice bike overall.

[@ozzyktm]

Hey mate, appreciate the vid. A buddy of mine has an o8 and it's a great bike to ride apart from the hard pull throttle. The cables, etc are fine, lubed and it snaps back well. Curious if your 09 is the same?

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Mine is normal. The Woolich ECU map got the best out of this bike. Perhaps the throttle hand grip has been clued too close to the handle bar causing it to rub when twisting. Cheers.

[@omparadkar1414]

Awesome content nice FZ1 can u tell me more about woolich tuning.

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Just bought a 2014 model

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Congrats, There a Bargain.

[@Syreious]

Me too! Very lightly used. 3k miles

[@johnpucko7128]

Nice bike, I'm considering one. What is it like at high speed with no windscreen

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Thanks John, I've done 4 track days on it with no real problems from the wind. I like Naked bikes, you could put a mini screen on it for more protection however wind protection is pretty good for a naked.

[@kirbyjohnny792]

Wanna buy a chain for my 2014 model how many links should the chain have ?

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Mechanic or bike shop would be a good place for your info. Cheers.

[@kunal186]

Did you adjust the tappets with shims?

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Haven't touched the tappets yet. Maybe next service. Just finished the 100,000klm review video. Be out this week. Cheers.

[@shaun3208]

Hi what’s it like to ride with a passenger?

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Good question, the back seat is firm and the suspension wound tight so might need a bit more padding.

[@riffsontwowheels]

I’m looking at a black 01

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Where are you located. I know where a good 2007 Fz1 is for 5k to $5500 to a loving home. The bike has upgraded suspension and alot of upgrades.

[@riffsontwowheels]

@@WozzasSportsCruiserRides U.S.

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Good luck with your purchase. There really quite a good bike.
