2002 Yamaha FZ1 review from United States of America
"I highly recommend this bike"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing has gone wrong with this bike.
General comments?
I am very happy with this bike. The upright riding position is comfortable and provides great visibility.
If this bike had any more power it would be unrideable. No need to add parts for performance.
The brakes are incredible, great feel and stopping power.
The bike is stable in corners and during acceleration.
