ye mate i like the older stuff be collapsed out of breath after trying to kick that helmet on top of head catching your breath  lol it would have had you fit as out

The FZ1 had the R1 engine just geared differently, was still good for 150 stock, got mine to 160 with very little mods, plenty quick enough for the big  naked bikes but some of the newer ones are crazy fast.
