Glad I could help!

nothing definitively. You can check out my last video in my "can we fix it" series and take a listen for yourself. I compare it to another fz1 to determine if it could be normal or not.

Not right now.

good luck! You can do it! Be careful going back together with the clutch cover and pull lever, getting them lined up correctly is the hardest part of the entire job.

How do you like it?

@@grimsmotovlogs369 it's a great bike I need to do the ECU flash

yeah, it should be the same thing as the fz1.

The FZ1 is such a well rounded bike! Which is faster between the two you think, diavel or fz1? Just curious. haha. I appreciate your comment. I agree the issues are not deal breakers at all, just good info to know before hand, so that you could maybe use it to drop the price or maybe to find out they've already been taken care of.

Has the rotor been replaced with the Updated version? Sounds like yours may have come apart. If you're not familiar just google FZ1 Stator/Flywheel issues. Very common. if it came apart on you, it may have eaten the motor with it. I hope that's not the case.

They should be 5mm.

The silencer should be removable, if you watch my exhaust install video, I show how I had to remove mine. It wasn't the easiest. I had to have a special tool, slide hammer type tool.

yeah, its something like almost 300 lbs more!

Thanks!

As far as I can see, this is no longer on amazon. I don't know if they'll bring it back for the summer or not. it may be discontinued as well. Sorry I don't have any further info.

I appreciate that. Thanks!

I personally think its bearing noise. From my experience, the whine isn't normal. I don't think an engineer would say its normal either, but tons of people say it is. haha

@@grimsmotovlogs369 Does bad bearing make whining noise? FZ1 has been around for decades and nobody has solved what causes the noise? That's just really weird in my opinion. I tried to listen closely but atleast for now couldn't hear that whine on my bike 🤔

yeah I personally don't think the whine is normal. but yeah a bad bearing will make a whining noise, but there's a lot of stuff that can make similar noises on a bike. Such as the chain and sprockets or even the straight cut transmission gears (which would both be normal) I also think people are getting 2 separate noises confused, Maybe they think they hear a whine, but reality its normal. But I think the whine my bike has is not, as its not a normal sounding whine. Because of how it changes with RPM, gets worse on deceleration (under load) and goes away almost completely when warm. Those symptoms would all lead me to a bearing of sort, while what other people may be hearing something that actually is completely normal. Motorcycles are noisy machines in general. hahah hopefully that made sense. But without being in person, its really hard to do any type of comparisons over video TBH.

Nice Job! Cheers!

So the glue used to hold the magnets to the rotor on some bikes will come loose and throw them causing catastrophic engine failure. Yamaha redesigned the rotor assembly for the last FZ1 model year before its change to the MT. The new design has the magnets encased in a metal sheath. Realistically you have two options for a replacement. A manufacturer redesigned part or a Chinese knockoff sold ,by a Canadian Company, for about half the price. I personally went with an RM stator first but had issues, and I decided to just spend the extra money and got the OEM one. Id personally just recommend the OEM redesign . As I've heard and seen pictures of the other ones castings breaking, among other things. But it is expensive, like $500 just for the part.

Sounds like you may have found yourself the best find of the year! Congrats on your new purchase! I love using partzilla, they have the best prices online for OE parts! The Candy Apple Red would be delicious!

@@grimsmotovlogs369 I’ve been looking at the different shades with different base coats around that color. Gonna get er done! Lol

it could just be clutch related if it changes when you pull the clutch lever in and out. I highly doubt it would be the needle bearing, but maybe more clutch disks, But its really hard to say without seeing it first hand. These are all just guesses

No, It may be normal. Check out my last video in the series and you can see what you think. I've got a little comparison to another FZ1.

I've ridden an 09 back in the early 2010s, TBH I couldn't remember if I tried. From things I've read and seen, the triples are very good bikes.

I'm pretty sure its a Gen 2. thing only.

I have not, I'm just going to ride the thing for now. If it gets worse and I'm then able to diagnose it better then I will, but for now I'm just going to enjoy it,

When the magnets went, did it take out the engine too? How's the GSXS1000? NGL i about bought a gsxs750 the other day because it was such a good deal.

Exact same process I went through. I’ve got a series replacing the oil/water pump. You can check it out and decide if it’s worth it or not to replace it. I’ll be honest, if you check out my last video on the series, I have a little sound test, and you may just decide it could be normal. I don’t know that it is, but this noise seems to be fairly common on the gen 2s.

Already watched them thanks. I was quite disappointed as that's what I was aiming for next. Good informative video's 👍

@@meathumper1 right. I was so bummed when it didn’t fix it. And thanks! To me it doesn’t sound normal. But at this point I can’t just keep throwing parts at it. I’ve spent enough that I could have bought a used motor for it 😂

I'm not too familiar with those bikes. Its really hard to say without being there to hear or see first hand.. sorry

I've never ridden one, but I've heard they're good. But I believe the 2nd gen is better, based on forums and what I've read about people who have had both.

as far as I'm aware of, I only have an exhaust.

lmao

This video was just a 6 month review of it. I have 3 videos, of the sound of this exhaust, on my channel. Feel free to check them out. One is a complete install and sound comparison. And the second video is a compilation style sound comparison. The last video, I modify the baffle to change the sound for a lower tone. You may find those more helpful.

Its a common question haha. I usually run 89 octane.

This is true! The FZ1N doesn't have handles nor does it have a center stand, so that makes sense. I unfortunately am not large enough to even get my fz1 up on the center stand. hahaha Have any tips? maybe i should use the handles? hahaha

Well, I don't recommend an FZ1 to young and inexperienced riders. And for seasoned and experienced riders, power is important. My list had no particular order, but power, I'd say, is still number one, if I had to rank them. Why would you want a big, slow, heavy bike? I had one, and sold it after a month. hahaha (see my GL1800, Why I sold after a month video) I value your opinion and I think we actually agree with each other. I recommend slower, smaller, and lighter bikes to new and inexperienced riders, but people are going to do what they want. I know when I bought my first bike, Power is what I was looking for. I started on a 600 sportbike.

I have not, the exhaust itself looks like its a larger diameter, but really its a heat shield that gives it that appearance. Pretty much all the chrome on this exhaust is heat shield. it gets hot but it never like actually has melted anything, I'm sure if you left something on it long enough it would, but in my experience I haven't.

I'll be honest, I have never ridden an R1. Id have to say it all depends on what type of riding you plan on doing. The R1 will be a lot less comfortable in comparison to the FZ1. Obviously the R1 will be faster, but that's well above any speed limit. The Fz1 is somewhat torquey and has a bit of low end, which I find nice riding in town. Lets just say if I was 20-30 years old I'd probably buy the R1. And 30 years and above I'd go with the FZ1. Mainly for comfort lol. The FZ1 is going to be faster than you're 600 super sports and I'd think gsxr750s as well. So you'll still be able to race and beat most bikes on the FZ1, if that's what you're in to lol I know that was a big appeal to me. I love power, but also some comfort lol

@@grimsmotovlogs369 I thought you had one because of your logo lol. It's 3000$/year for plates on a R1 vs 1000$/year for a FZ1, not including insurance, so yeah I think I'll go with the FZ1 anyway lol

You will not be disappointed with the FZ1. Great all around bike. Just try and find out before you buy if the rotor/flywheel has been replaced. knowing whether or not its been replaced can be used as a bargaining tool, If you're not familiar you can check out my FZ1 Before You Buy Video
