Yamaha FZ description

2006 Yamaha Fz1 , Cycle World Magazine's "World's Best Streetbike" (Oct. 2004) Everyday Comfort Coupled with Razor Sharp Handling and Open Class Power .Cycle World Magazine's "World's Best Streetbike" (Oct. 2004) For the rider who likes sport bike performance but prefers more comfortable ergonomics. The FZ1 offers a more traditional upright seating position, yet sacrifices nothing in terms of engine and handling performance. Sometimes it feels sinful to hide an engine like the R1 derived, 20-valve, Genesis powerplant behind bodywork ... hence the FZ1. Yamaha's naked bike, though, is fully decked out: Fully adjustable suspension at both ends, Four-piston monoblock calipers, Light, three-spoke aluminum wheels ,Wide, high-performance tires. The same semi-upright ergonomics that make dawn `til dusk rides not just possible but highly enjoyable also provide great leverage when the road turns twisty. In the end, you can come at it from either direction: practical transportation, or 140-horse sport bike. Both paths will bring you around, eventually, to the one bike thats both, The FZ1. This 2006 Yamaha FZ1 with ~ 6,000 miles is one of the best used bikes out there. Super clean and damage free this bike looks, runs, rides and shifts super. Call or text - 832.434.3539 $5,000.00

Spotted the link to this short film on a Dutch blog. It's beautifully shot/directed and captures GP rider Mike Duff's recovery from a horrific hip and pelvis injury suffered at the Japanese GP which cost him a six month stay in hospital. Watching him push-start makes you wince just imagining the pain he must have been in.
