Yea, exactly. And getting there was effortless. I started thinking about how ridiculously fast and powerful FZ1 is and while I appreciate the craftsmanship and technology that goes into the engines of modern Japanese I just don't need that much power. I rarely wound the motor on that FZ1 up past 6k...doing so easily put you in citation territory.

Pretty much what I realized is what many experienced bikers on the forums have been saying for years. Its more power than I could use on the street with my skill level...and I couldn't afford any more tickets.

So, all in all, very pleased with my trade.

Not sure yet as I haven't switched it over. I have just been carrying liability but I'll see what the full coverage price is on the Magna. The FZ1 was actually pretty cheap.

Wanted or needed? HA.

Depending on who you have for insurance it may not be that big of a difference.

Very nice! Enjoy.

Yea do some heavy shopping! Some companies rate per ccs and some rate per bike. If your company rates per bike, I guarantee your rate will go down!
