    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

  • In order to help others find info on a particular bike, be sure to put the year, make or model of bike that you are asking a question about, in the Topic Title. This will allow people to pass by posts they have no interest in.

FZ1 to be Tour'ed finally AT HOME!

Hey Evan. I'm going to NH this Sunday. Going down early and spending a good chunk of the day visiting family in Weare NH. Plan on heading bavk home around 3-4ish. If your in the area or if I'm passing through your area let me know. I was planning on taking 89 into VT then 100 all the way home. PM and ill shoot you my number.
 
I just googled the specs for the FZ1. It weighs 472 lbs with a empty gas tank.
MY B12 weighs 455 lbs with a empty tank.

459lbs or 208kg dry for the FZ1 according to the FZ1 forum and motorcycle specs.co ..

http://www.suzukicycles.org/Bandit-series/GSF1200-Bandit.shtml
471lbs dry for a gen 1 and 484lbs for a gen 2 according to Suzuki cycles.org

I can tell you that this FZ1 feels lighter then my B-12 did. The FZ1 handles and brakes better... And the stock HP levels...its comparing peaches to pears. Even my Gen1 with stage 2 jet kit, pods, ignition advance, exhaust, -1 sprocket in the front. Cannot hold a tourch to my "stock" FZ1.

Its a shame the 1250 is even slower then a gen 1 B-12 for I was about an inch away of pulling the trigger on one. But then I found my Fazer.
