Left my baby Behind


Well I dropped my Yamaha FZ1 off at a shop today to have a Ivan's Jet Kit and AIS removal done. The Easement is $250, but I expect to see a $300 plus charge on there. I was going to do it myself, but I have limited work space and my tools are in total disarray. Heck, I had a hard time finding a freaking screwdriver today.

I did manage to replace the stock can with a Micron CF Slip-on. It sounds and looks great. It's not at all loud, but I also didn't notice much of a performance gain (Not like I need any more performance out of the bike). I can't wait to get out for a good ride. Now that I have so much time on my hands a nice week day ride may be in order. The temps at starting to really cool off up here now, and I don't have many weekends left.

Anyway, I'm a little worried abut my bike. I love that damn hunk of metal, plastic and steel and I really do miss it. It's strange, I look out at my shed and don't see it like I expect to and I really do miss it.
