Yamaha FZ1
This is my Yamaha FZ1 motorcycle--a great all-around sportbike with plenty of horsepower (130hp) and comfortable ergonomics. The street-tuned R1 engine, fully adjustable suspension, and relaxed but sporty riding position make for a very fast, fun, and practical streetbike. So far I have ridden her on adventures to the North Carolina/Tennessee mountains, Key West, and motorcycle roadracing tracks.
