Guys, i'm considering getting a FZ1, will it be fine if i dont take it out for touring that often?? will its engine be under utilised?? mileage for FZ1 is around 17 -18 km/litre right??

 

The new FZ1's consumption depends very much on the rider... it can very from the 10km/L- 17km/L depending on your riding habits... Expect about 15km/L on average.

 

A litre class is definitely an overkill for riding locally... unless passion is driving you, get something that you like, not considered overkil...etc...

 

I'm passionate about bananas...are you???

Have seen 1 fz1 tat is installed wif H&B top box n one wif Givi top box .

 

IMO , the H&B one looks nicer on the FZ1 , the Givi one is mounted too high on the rear .

Hmm.. ok.. how is the maintenace like? every 5000km per servicing? engine oil and oil filter change? actually i'm quite torn between FZ1 and FZ6. I am more inclined towards FZ1 in terms of looks, however FZ6 seems like a cheaper to maintain alternative.

In my case , i change engine oil n oil filter every 3000km . Imo , servicing wise , 600 n 1000cc bike no difference .

 

Difference is higher cost to upkeep a 1000cc bike as rd tax, insurance n some parts like tyres will be more ex .

 

If u r in to long distance travelling , get the FZ1 , riding mostly on SG rds , get the 600 .

I bought my Junior 40L 2 days ago, able to fit 1 FF, but need some skills doing so. 100% can fit Open face.

 

Tricky part is getting used to having side panniers. Harder for u to go in between cars.

 

I dun think Mah bring in H&B. U can try M-technik, i had mine fixed there. Look for Chan

$120 is for 1 or 2 pairs?

 

How good is this compared to the OEM brake pads which gives superb braking, does not wear the disc and is affordable (less then $100).

 

Apparently sintered copper is harder then the OEM brake pads material composition, therefore running the risk or wearing the brake disc due to it being a harder compound even though it provides the maximum stopping power... Pls Explain...

oic,its quite a reasonable price for a 600cc compared to the new hornet which is around 17k+ for the normal n 19k+ for the ABS.Thanks for the info!

I'm 26, bought mine at 13800+850= 14650.

 

So for 28, i assume its 13800 + 700 (should be around this price i guess for the insurance)= 14500

[senate747]

bro, dont sell ur fz1 lah.. later regret like me....

Hi Guys,

 

I lost my key (black) and would need to duplicate another one; most likely at Hong Leong, as my current bike shop is holding the other 2 keys (1 X black and 1 X red master key). I like to know the price of duplicating a another black key? And another thing is do i need the red master key to duplicate another black key? I can only do it at Hong Leong right; due to the fact that i need them to re-programme the key or i can do the re-programming on my bike itself? Any kind soul pls advise, Thanks.

[DaBonz]

Ur shop should be able to get you duplicate from HL. A bit more ex I think but not much choice... Price I not sure, $60 mebbe?
