Yamaha FZ description

Up for sale is a 2008 Yamaha FZ1.  Graphite Gray with 6,714 miles.  Adult owned.  Never dropped, never down, garage stored and responsibly ridden.  Bike is in excellent condition with a clear title.

Bike shows minimal signs of wear.  Aside from light scuffing on the mirror and left radiator guard from storage (pictures attached), it is immaculate.  

Everything on the bike is stock with the exception of a Delkevic Carbon Slip-On (short can), a Fender Eliminator Kit, and Rear Indicators.  I still have the original silencer, fender, and indicators that can be included in the sale should potential buyers be interested in the OEM parts.

I put in new oil, a new oil filter, and a new battery just prior to listing.  The bike is ready to ride.

This is a very versatile machine.  It is an excellent street bike as is, can be fitted with panniers as a tourer, and can do track days with ease.  It is also worth noting that the insurance premiums on this bike are much more affordable than that of the supersports.  For me, this was a very pleasant surprise, considering its power.  

Having previously owned a ZX6-R and an R6, this has been my favorite bike.  It has Yamaha's powerful R1 motor, but tuned for low end torque and midrange power.  Paired with the comfortable ergonomics, this makes for an excellent bike for street riding.  Not once did my wrists become uncomfortable.  It is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a sportbike but is apprehensive about their uncomfortable riding position.

As stated, it is in excellent condition.  Pictures do not do it justice.  It has that beautiful "naked" sportbike look and the exhaust is deep and throaty.  It looks and sounds great.  

I am happy to answer any questions, so do not hesitate to ask.

Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick up or shipping.  Immediate deposit of $500 required (PayPal), with the remainder to be paid by Cashier's Check or Certified Check upon pickup. 

Bike is for sale locally.  I reserve the right to remove this listing at anytime.

Mystic Mac's 2014 MotoGP predictions

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

There is no real off season in Moto GP.  Although we complain about being starved of racing, for those at the sharp end, in little more than two months they have new bikes to assemble, team staff to put in place and sponsors to nail down that will pay for it all.  This time frame is also tight for riders, as it seems more every year go straight under the surgeon’s knife after the last round and spend the short winter recuperating for the season ahead. The 2014 Moto GP championship looks like a cracker as apart from the ten full factory riders we now have at least eight non factory riders with properly competitive machinery.  We also have five Brits on the grid, two with podium potential.  Whatever happens though (providing you have BT Sport) you can just sit back and enjoy watching the incredible Marc Marquez do things that shouldn’t be possible. Speaking of whom, I didn’t believe a Rossi replacement would come this soon.  And when I say replacement, I mean a rider that is the full package.  Although in some ways quite different to Vale, he’s an equally phenomenal talent plus a very likeable character that appeals to the masses and although respectful to his rivals off track, deadly competitive in the heat of battle.  Being young and good looking he’s obviously a dream for sponsors and the sport in general.  Marquez has evolved in his own way but thankfully into a perfect replacement for our sport when the VR steps down.
