@diehard: awesome pictures there!!!!!!!!! keep them coming.

@ niks : i already finished reading it i had a doubt if that could be your bike wow my intuitions were right. by the way was it you riding the bike (with the rossi dream time helmet)

guys what exhaust are you planning for your rides. do let me know on the sliders. i even considered crg arrow mirrors (google it) for the bike. It gives the bike a retro look (which i like). But they r really expensive

@ Johnny,
Guess you can give it a shot by getting in one pair and once you know the route well order for bulk. Not trying to promote the brand but end of the day in any eventuality you can go ahead and replace only the sliders rather than ordering for the complete kit.
From my experience getting in items to a certain weight are generally not charged with duty/postal charges by Indian Government. 40$ is a worthy sum for a trial and error, shipments generally take around 2-3 weeks.
Not trying to promote the brand but in general exchanging my views.

Actually that fire is bad for the bike as well.

eekss and a big no....i wont bother the performance upgrade but something like this wont ever be on my bike atleast!

@ JVH: I guess i need to go and visit a couple of dealers in Delhi and find out the source for importing specific bike parts.


@ Nik: This is my list for parts and accessories that I would want

1. MIVV Suono (Stainless Steel)
2. Belly Pan (As in your photos)
3. Frame Sliders
4. Wind Screen
5. Radiator Fins

A question: Since we already have a problem of ground clearance wouldn't installing a Belly Pan escalate the issue???

Congrats for the review bro. Will read the review in Bike Magazine for sure. I think i'll need to subscribe these magazines now


@ ku69rd: Let nik talk to DSG and get the quotes bro. If that option doesn't help us, ordering it online would be the only option left.


@ Everyone: As suggested by kud69rd the link (2006-2011 Yamaha FZ1 Frame Sliders) suggests frame sliders with 2 inch or 1.75 inch diameter. Could someone explain this???


@ NIK, MOTOVASA, DIEHARD, HARISH: We should consider forming a group for FZ1 owners in India and come up with a new name. What do you guys think??

I have seen this... nice looking exhaust. These guys make custom exhausts. They are in UK. There are few pics of it online too.. It compliments the bike very well.
My opinion = custom exhausts are the way to go satisfies my need,
weight reduction
good looks
increase in hp(small)
