We don't have the FZ1N in this part of the world. I've only seen the faired edition. So basically Yamaha developed a new 779cc engine, got cheap suspension and dropped it into an FZ1 chassis and we are here

That doesn't look like the FZ8 headlight. Wrong shape. I think it's an Fz1 that's been streetfightered. (Everything is a verb.)
As Warpth stated, its a FZ1N. We North Americans don't get all the bikes. We're not special enuff!

More like we don't buy enough naked bikes to be worth the cost of testing and importing models that won't sell enough to be worthwhile financially. That's the real problem. Merkins mostly buy cruisers and repli-racers, so that's what we get offered. Japanese makers have tried selling unfaired bikes before, but it's a very niche market and there's not a lot of profit there, so it's just not worth the effort. That appears to be changing, but what's hot in teh Euro market is not necessarily what's hot here, so we don't get some of the Euro models. Same with cars.

With the baffle in, no; It almost sounds like stock. There is a better breathing baffle supplied that I would think gives you middle ground between baffled and unbaffled.Looks good camo! THe big question is...does it wake the kids up?
I took it out completely just then and I like it. It's deep but I think I'll be able to keep it stealth in the morning

Luckily they're cheap to buy too! I have one they sound great but can be liittle loud. The DB killer option for them, IMO, doesn't do much. I love the sound it makes though
This is my bike
where did you get the wheel stickers?

Jardine RT5
I don't know if anyone has posted a video of an FZ8 with Jardine RT5 exhaust, but here's mine. It's pretty load but everyone on the road have told me that it sounds awesome, I agree. I think I need to invest in earplugs though. Not sure how to post videos yet so here's the link:
