What do you not like about *your* bike(s)?
We all love our bikes. But like every good relationship, there's always something specific that pisses you off to no end.
What is it about your bike that you don't like, or would have liked the manufacturer to improve? This would be a the 'Cons' section in a looooooong term ride review.
I'll start:
- I don't like the fact that the rotor-stator on the FZ1 is the weak-point in the system. The replacement part is very expensive if you end up with broken magnets (quite possible) and the damn thing is part of the engine (making extraction quite difficult) and the stealership never has any in stock.
- The huge amount of sensors in the bike is just irritating, especially once the bike is 'old'. Everything needs to be extracted and cleaned or replaced, or the engine light is going to be your riding buddy.
Like I said, these are small niggles in an otherwise fantastic ride. I bought a Yamaha so that it would be bullet-proof.
