ugly Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Hey guys, I got my fz 07 just a couple of weeks ago. It's red. This is my first bike ever and loving it so far. Doing the 600 mile service tomorrow. Lots to learn. I keep stalling and my gear changes are not very smooth. Keep looking through the forums to learn from more experienced riders. I recently added a CRG clutch lever and am looking to get the Yoshimura exhaust sometime soon. As for gear, I'm wearing a REV'IT Voltaic Hi-Viz jacket. Some sort of Tour Master over-pants, REV'IT H2O gloves, and HJC FG-17 Hi-Viz helmet. Anyone in the area want to meet up for short rides? Just keep in mind that I'm not an experienced rider. Can't wait for some warmer weather to really enjoy my rides! Glad to be part of this community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member ch3rryghost Posted January 13, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted January 13, 2015 PNW! Welcome and go Blazers. I can't believe you hit 600 miles already; I bought back on Black Friday and I only have 42 miles. Pathetic I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, that name just transferred over from my (don't judge), COD Black Ops 2 game name. Also, I break mirrors whenever I look at them! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugly Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 PNW! Welcome and go Blazers. I can't believe you hit 600 miles already; I bought back on Black Friday and I only have 42 miles. Pathetic I know. Haha, no rush. I just can't keep my hands off of it! I feel guilty for not having put more miles on it! Looking to get to the 1000 mile maker in the next few days, given that the roads don't get all icy. Just ordered the Yoshimura stainless steel exhaust and that should be here on Wednesday. The carbon fiber one is out of stock. :-( Super excited about getting that all hooked up. Ride safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member ch3rryghost Posted January 15, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted January 15, 2015 Whereabouts do you typically ride? I bet there are some awesome scenic roads, even something as simple as taking the 84 East; very envious, wish I was in Portland with my bike that's for sure.

I really need to work on my gear changes from 1st -> 2nd -> 3rd. So amateurish! Have fun, and ride safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goschie Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Reside in tualatin. Plenty of curves out near here. Id suggest going out towards hillsboro and taking some back roads work on that shifting "I'm not reckless. I am incredibly skilled with a bit of flair."
