So the link above is pretty interesting whether or not you believe him. I picked up my fz8 on Saturday with .4 miles on the odometer and with the first couple of 2nd gear pulls heading down the road I felt a distinct difference by the 6th and 7th pulls. So anyways, there are some good things in the blogs he did even if you don't agree....
I changed my oil at 34 miles, and I will again at 200 miles.
Moving on
I Absolutley love this bike, it's fast, it's agile, it's so freaking comfortable compared to a reg sport bike.
The only thing I'm not diggin so far is the dip at around 4500 rpms. It's short but it's there. And I don't know if its me but first and second gear WOT is almost like the dang thing has wheelie control cause unless I make it, it won't come up for me. Also there is a lot of popping in the header when I come off of being under mild to heavy load, unburnt fuel I'm pretty sure but I dunno.
I have put 154 miles on it so far. I'm very interested in what he is doing with the ignition timing and secondary throttle bodies.
I am going for looks first, then doing a full "bolt on" power upgrade with a tune. The ecu thing is more of me wanting to see how well the bike should do stock, or how it should have felt from the factory.
I removed some things from the bike to see if I could get a better look out of it while its stock. And I took off the stickers and I think it looks a lot meaner.
So...... Here are some pics
