CanisLupus 2017 Yamaha FZ-09

I'm in the same boat, whipped out on dirt and twisted/sprained/bruised bones on my ankle knee and ribs. Bike is sitting in the garage caked in mud still. Sucks when I can't enjoy the sunny weather

 

I rolled it real bad on a tree root playing paintball and then tried to play like 3 more games

Weather has been pretty decent here too and I barely rode this summer anyway because of my work/firehouse schedule so it sucks not really being able to ride whenever I do have the chance.

Shaking the cobwebs off after a long winter!

2100 miles for my reference. Oil changed, chain cleaned/lubed and checked tension, tire PSI corrected, lights checked. Also swapped out license plates since VA finally came out with a vol. FD plate for motorcycles. It had one less character so I couldn't get "9HUNDO" again, so went with "FZ-09".

VA inspection up 4/19 for my reference.

Ordered a Puig windscreen for the bike, we'll see how it actually looks in person since there wasn't a ton of images for it.

Also need to do a brake flush on it soon, and clean/lube chain again.

First impressions are that I'm on the fence. We'll see if it grows on me.

i think it being gloss throws it off a bit

 

It was clear, black, or dark smoke

Matt

 

wonder how matte black vinyl would look on it.

 

Enjoying them Carolina roads
