Hey guys, and gals. Longtime lurker here who just decided to sign up. I used this forum a lot when researching a motorcycle to purchase. I finally pulled the trigger and bought the 2015 FZ-07 in rapid red June 6th. I am in love with this bike ( I think my wife sees it as the other woman )! So far I have added a Two Brothers s1r exhaust, Yoshimura fender eliminator, and I just ordered two pairs of Oxford Eyeshot LED turn signals. If anyone is from SouthCak hit me up.

I bought my gear before I bought the bike. Joe rocket speedmaster leather jacket with ce2 armor, icon airmada helmet, Joe Rocket gloves, Fulmer (I know...) armored mesh hot weather jacket, and Dainese vera cruz boots. When I was 18-20 I had a 2001 Katana 750 (once again, I know lol) and I only wore a helmet. I was young and dumb. Now I have a lot to lose including a 1 year old. I think back to the Kan-o-tuna days and am embarrassed for myself. Now I just need to find some good riding pants

Awesome review! Those are definitely in my price range and fit my style. I'll definitely search the Web for those, I might be able to find them even cheaper. I think I'm going to get a riding Jean like the Finn Moto and a nice pair of over pants for late fall/winter riding. Right now I'm relegated to Levis and it makes me feel a little nervous when I'm riding.
