2008 Yamaha FZ1

I'm a great Grand-ma, but have been riding on the back since the early 70's. At 58 I decided it was about time for me to move to the front. I love sport bikes, have always loved sport bike, I'm kinda a speed demon.

My first bike was a 250 Ninja, 2nd bike was a Yamaha FZ-600, and recently stepped up to a FZ-1.

If your short like me (5'4") and like the look and the feel of a sport bike then this is the bike for you. It can be lowered, which my husband has done (1' in back 3/4" in front), you can add bags if you like to tour which I do. It's not to top heavy, which means you can handle it And it will do twisties all day with the big boys.
