I got me a 2001 yamaha FZ1 today. I was going to get me another gsxr 1000 but due to a recent jet ski accident I am no longer able to crouch over like that anymore. The Fz1 has the same motor as the R1 (145hp) but yet the riding position is more upright. It is actually easier to wheelie than my gixxer was. I have been wanting another bike just wanting one I can ride for a while and not hurt my back. I will try and post some pics tomorrow as it is too late today. :naught:

I had a silver '02 FZ1. It is the best all around motorcycle I've ever owned. I traded it it for an '05 Hayabusa this year and I love the big Zook but still miss the Yamaha. Great buy, Jeremy!

I had a 03 Hayabusa, great bike...actually it was quite insane...LOL. It is funny now that I bought a BW's/Zuma 500cc scooter.....lol, it is really fun to ride and modding it seems like a lot of fun. I have a '03 GL1800 Goldwing for the touring chores. I am playing with the idea of dual-sporting out a Yamaha WR450 and making it Street legal, that would be a fun bike!!

A 500CC Zuma? Wow!! How cool. I fell in love with a red Yamaha Majesty scooter at the dealer this weekend, but my wife dragged me out of the dealership. Our Zuma was actually a birthday present for her in '03, so I'm ready for my own scooter :). I must say, one of the things I love about the Zuma is the light weight, and with a little modding, it'll get out of it's own way too. That WR450 could be a blast on the street :). '03 Gold Wing....super nice tourer.

I rode the Busa to work today, and was surprised to realize that I missed the Screaming Yellow Zuma! The simplicity, super light weight, and general fun, especially 70CC'd out like it is, the Zuma is a pretty cool mode of transpo o_o :).
