Yamaha FZ description

Up for sale is my nearly perfect FZ1. This is one of, if not THE most awesome bike I’ve ever owned. It is in amazing condition, and is a perfect running and riding bike. I doubt a 2005 model gets much better than this. I wouldn't hesitate to ride this one across country. The power is incredible, and I still can't believe how comfortable it is. All the power and fun of a full-on sportbike, with the comfortable seating and position of a standard or sport-tourer. I'm in my 50s, and I could ride this all day. The aftermarket exhaust and K&N air filters make an already strong running bike an incredible running bike. And did I mention how amazing this exhaust sounds???

This is practically a one owner bike; I've only had it a few months as only the second owner. Extremely low miles, still have both keys and the manual, and have a clear CA title in hand. Always garaged during my time with it, and never ridden in anything but sunshine by a mature, non-thrashing owner.
An absolutely beautiful, nearly perfect bike that literally runs better than new. I know I'm going to regret letting this one go, but unfortunately, it's time to downsize my collection of toys. This is a perfect opportunity for someone to own one of the most awesome, comfortable bikes on the market in nearly new condition at a fraction of the cost of a new one.

A few additions and mods to note:

Muzzy exhaust w/ ceramic-coated headers (these cost a fortune, but last forever)
K&N pod filters
Brand new front tire (less than 150 miles on it)
Nearly new rear tire (not sure how many miles on it, but both tires still have the little rubber "nibs" on them)
Sargent World Performance seat (has less than 100 miles on it)
Zero Gravity clear ST windscreen (also brand new - I also have a shorter smoked screen available if you'd prefer that instead)
Fender eliminator kit
Frame sliders
PROGRIP tank protector
Plug for battery tender under seat
12v outlet in right fairing panel
Grip Puppy hand grips (these can be slipped off the existing grips if that's not your cup of tea, but man are these comfortable!)
Just serviced and completely gone over at the Yamaha dealer
...and as an added incentive, I'm including the Yamaha factory cover (see pic)

Bike is located near Redlands, in the Inland Empire area of southern California.
(In the interest of full disclosure, there is a small scrape on the front edge of the front fender that it appears the previous owner touched up by hand - I've included a picture)

***This is the third motorcycle I've listed on Ebay in the past few months (the previous two sold to happy buyers), and I've been active on Ebay for over a dozen years with a perfect 100% feedback score, so you can bid and buy with confidence.
Thanks for looking, and best of luck - bid high and bid often!

We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.

Official: Rossi Leaving Ducati for Yamaha Return

Fri, 10 Aug 2012

In a pair of carefully-timed press releases, Ducati announced it will part ways with MotoGP star Valentino Rossi at the end of the season and Yamaha announced it has signed Rossi to a two-year contract. The arrangement had been in the works for some time now and the two manufacturers had reportedly wanted to wait until Aug. 15 to make their announcements.

THIS IS the 'Black Devil' - the latest traffic jam-busting, kamikaze two-wheel nutcase who seems to have little respect for not only his own life but eveyone else on the road, too. The rider in question has filmed himself tearing up Moscow's roads in a suicidal fashion, diving between lines of traffic in a bid to impress viewers of his hi-speed antics aboard a Yamaha R1. If he keeps this kind of activity up expect a report on his untimely demise sometime in the near future.
