This forum was great to me when I owned my bike, and all my bike accessories sold very quick here. My last holdout item is this jacket and pants I used two times. For sale: Alpinestars Viper Air Jacket and matching Alpinestars Airflow mesh Pants. Would prefer to sell as set, and you save$...

Removed: Leftover Cortech 8L Tank Bag removed.

SOLD / Leftover Kriega soft bags (US10, US20) for FZ8 SOLD Sold the FZ8 and bought a '14 Super Tenere now fitting extra-large luggage to it. Save $. Buy two for less than the price of one new. These Kriega US10 & US20 bags with hidden under-pillion straps worked great the two times I...

Originally, I planned to buy a FZ1 and went with an FZ8 for more local riding instead. I enjoy the FZ8 for around town riding, but was not really able to explain why on paper, I just knew it was fun to ride when I bought it. Also, while riding with groups, I could not help but notice how much...

Looking for photos of GPS units mounted on your FZ8s? center or side bar mounts, whatever you got to show.... Thanks!

Concept in progress: Yamaha 850cc Adventure... For those of you who like road and some offroad, wanting something lighter than the big Super Tenere, it appears the idea of Yamaha making an 850cc adventure bike is more than just an idea, the concept and online polls with mock up photos have...

MCN just came out their first riding video review of the new FZ09 / MT-09. At 2:48 you can hear the sound of the new triple a little bit. Looks flickable. VIDEO: Video: Yamaha Strikes Back with the MT-09 - | Motorbike reviews | Latest Bike Videos | MCN

Mild Mods Project Comparing as we go. A good friend kept his bike in stock form for now and we are comparing back and forth as I make each mod. INITIAL MODS: - V&H CS One muffler, cat left in on purpose. - LSL Fat Bar Handlebars & Clamps, Superbike Low, 1" wider each side. - Pro Grips...

Would any of you be so kind to share a few photos of your bar-end mirrors installed on your FZ8s? Note: I did search this site first, and found older comments by more than a few members stating they can't believe the functional difference over the useless stock mirrors once they tried a set...

By chance has anyone here with a Vance & Hines CS One blackout muffler tried any of the optional DB quieting inserts yet ??? It appears they offer multiple inserts in -3DB steps down, but I've not tried one yet on my FZ8. I'm waiting for my CS One slip-on muffler to arrive soon. I'm curious...

REQUEST: I'm interested in hearing from FZ8 forum members who rode with their stock exhaust for a while, then replaced it with an aftermarket slip-on (muffler only - no ECU remap or Power Commander added), and have since switched back to stock muffler and compared results?. Again, this is only...

I attended MotoGP this past weekend in Monterey at Laguna Seca. Yamaha had a nice display including current year FZ8 and the 2014 FZ09. FZ8 future: both factory reps I spoke to stated its confirmed for now the FZ8 will not be coming to the USA in 2014, but they will continue in Canada and...

Got any ideas..? I'm looking for a high quality slip-on muffler with a DEEP sound, not too loud. Something with a tad more flow and nice sound. Plan to keep cat on. Don't want to have to remap; just need a nice deep sounding muffler. Yosh?, Vance & Hines?, Graves? Any recommendations...

Would like to hear from anyone who has installed the Kriega US Tank Bag Adapter system on to your FZ8. Plan to move my US10 bag from tail to tank, and keep my US20 on the tail so I can wear a Kriega backpack too. - photos? velcro or hook straps?

Article: Yamaha FZ8 will continue its career at the sides of the MT-09 | Bikes Doctor Maybe the FZ8 is not being replaced by the FZ 09 or discontinued after all? True or False - My local dealer in northern California indicated today the FZ8 will continue and be distributed in to the USA...

Myself and a friend originally started out to buy either used or new Ducati Monsters, and ended up buying FZ8s instead just over a month ago. We both own other italian bikes today, but when it came down to doing our research on naked street-fighter bikes the overall performance, maintenance...

Looking for current photos of wider handlebars on your FZ8? Coming more from dirt bikes and supermoto, for me I feel like my FZ8 could use 2" wider handlebars (1" each side) with maybe 1" more pullback. I did read an old thread here where one guy did it and liked it, also the benefit of...

>Brand new 2012 FZ8 at 52 miles so far< I'm hoping the transmission on my new FZ8 is just tight and needs more miles to break in. I've had 20+ motorcycles in my life, and none shifted this firm or required extra shift attempts to go into gear. The clutch cable was adjusted by the dealer at...

Curious to hear from others on this site who seriously researched and demo'd other bikes before making that final decision on the FZ8 over others. I see a lot of posts about FZ1 vs. FZ8, yes, and this makes sense to struggle over since its in the same family. I'm assuming some bought the FZ8...
