THe stock gearing on the FZ1 is the culprit here. As simple as dropping the front sproket -1 to a 16 tooth makes a big difference in the bottom and mid-range. Adding a PCIII, slipon and a few other mods wakes up the motor a lot. I average around 35mpg back and forth to work but have a lot of lights once I get in town. I can get 40mpg riding a spirited pace on the back roads where I not in traffic. With the 16 tooth sprocket I can putt around in traffic at 40 mph in 6th gear if I want. |
