Cruizin Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Welcome the forum and congrats on your bike! Looks like you have a good start on upgrades. You are close to the best FZ-07 tuner there is. @2wheeldynoworks Yamaha MT-10 ForumYamaha Tracer 900 Forum Yamaha Ténéré 700 Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not take very long, just call them to let them know your are coming. They are great to deal with and it is a fantastic mod, even with the stock exhaust.

gregjet Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 There is a very good and , unfortunately closely named book, about grey called "Shades of grey" ( no 50). About discrimination based on eyesight. Author: Jasper Fforde of "Friday Next, Literary Detective" series. Worth a read if you want a concept of the arbitrariness of discrimination.

I prefer 1/2" manila rope; water evacuation is second to none!

Second to none in the cold and wet. The rear does have an emergency PR4 thanks to the nail I caught at around 800 miles. I'm also finding the BT023 on the front ain't so bad in the wet.

r1limited Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Bridgstone sucks hate em, haye em, hate em. Hate em worser than roids on a bumpy road.

gregjet Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 R1, do you mean ALL bridgestome's suck, or just the particular variety of disaster they created for the oem 07. I find the stock 023's to be VERY unBridgestone.ie totally marginally and harsh. I have had some brilliant Bridgies ( all time fav, no longer made BT090 that I used on several small-med race bikes).

Welcome to the forum! Is that the Fabbri Gen-X Screen? It is! It is the shorter sport version in satin. And darnit if it don't actually help with wind! Not so much the blocking of it, but it seems to clean up the airflow over the front. This is my 4th naked bike, and of them, the FZ-07 has THE absolutes worst turbulence by miles. The screen has definitely helped with highway comfort in that respect. Also it looks sweeeet! If you are riding up/down/over here, bring your rain gear. As r1 mentioned "The Grey" is coming...
