Just got the Racefit Growler fixed to the bike. Its freakishly LOUD...people in Cochin better order some earplugs, or kiss your eardrums good bye. Just loving every minute of it.:D

You can't get away without a proper audition. Go HD on YouTube or SoundCloud :D

VDO of idle and revving, but forgot to turn the phone to landscape mode for the VDO, sorry brothers!!:Frustrati

Race fit on FZ1 walk around - YouTube

this one is freakishly loud !

loving the exhaust :) [any drop in power or torque because of exhaust?]

No drop in power or torque, the exhaust was a 5 minute 'Plug n Play' job. Just insanely loud..!! Also the bikes not heating up so frequently, temp just plays around 95 degrees in traffic. And saved a lot of weight, this one just weighs around 900 grams.

Nice one. Thanks!
But it seems to be so loud for daily riding or cruising long distances.

You also get a baffle along with the exhaust which can fixed to reduce the exhaust note, but we didn't get one with the exhaust, just gonna check up with the dealers as the exhaust comes with a standard baffle. With the baffle its gonna bit a less loud, but still can be heard from a mile away. Guess it kills 10 dB's.

@Niks,
Your FZ1 looks superrr and awesome write up cum videos.

Did you change tyre? Which one did you opt for and what was the cost?

@djay : thanks buddy !

I opted for Metzeller Sportech M5 , pair costed me 25 ish ... (forgot the last digits :( )

How many KM did stock tyres last? and from where did you buy new set?

Did you consider Michelin Pilot Road 2 or CT before finalizing metzeller?

the old tyres are still half way more to go ... wanted a new set for css . old set has done 4800 kms. a frnd bot it for me from some dealer in Pune , i dont have details of the dealer.

I guess you did this for track day and CSS.

May we have few details on the difference between the tyres and also it will be great if you can write about the CSS experience.

Cheers!

Exceptional bike and mainly tagging my name to this thread to hear more about this bike as this is in my must buy list for 2013 :)

I like the stance of the bike and the lack of attraction appearing more like a common bike. The indirect camo is one of the reasons why i got smitten with this bike.

Replace the Fz1 stickers with Fz-s and people will potentially ask or say, good modification in looks.

They will not realize what this baby can do when you let it purr at 12K RPM. Beauty.
