markstertt Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 [div]Hi, took a demo ride last year on the -07 while waiting for a turn on the -09, I was pleasantly surprised with the spread of power and sweet shifting on the little bike. I had to keep up with the big bikes so had to ring it out pretty good. I didn't even stick around for the -09 ride as the -07 was that impressive and fit me perfectly. Long story short, just found a used FZ-07 (graphite/blurple) with some of the mods I would do so bought it and just a couple days ago found this forum...good stuff and now I'm hoping Mr. Hord comes out with a package deal for his airbox & PCV as I'd like to get the little bike up to factory claimed HP and torque...Mark[/div] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markstertt Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 Wow, ok a lot of response, I'll pin the map when I get a chance. My FZ-07 is the graphite/blurple with Yoshi R77 carbon exhaust and tail tidy and a Puig sport wind screen. I only picked the bike up yesterday so took the opportunity to change the oil and filter from the Yamalube to Amsoil 10w-40 Metric synthetic and filter. Lubed the chain and all the pivot points and pulled the muffler to install the DB killer, no way to get that little screw in with out pulling muffler, at least for me. I'll see if the DB killer helps with the popping on decel, I feel the bike needs a fuel controller now but am waiting to see if Mr. Hord offers his airbox with PCV in a package deal, I think that would do it.

markstertt Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 Welcome markster! Can it pop a wheelie? Hi Beemer, I only have the 6 mile test ride on it, shortly after getting it home it started to rain and still is, the prior owner told me to be careful in the wet as the Dunlop Q3s weren't made for it. I'm assuming he's correct since I don't know any difference, any way, to answer your question I'll just say 'probably, can't they all?'

Beemer Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Inside joke at the cost of (me) looking silly. Of course it can. Good answer, though! Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
