[QUOTE="sloppy, post: 1452441, member: 93224"] I did the same thing to my FZ-1 about 10 years ago. It made some significant difference and my son took it from Charlotte NC to Los Angeles CA through the tail of the Dragon, the Gulf states, TX, NM and AZ. He was concerned with range out West and some times camped at some national parks but he said it did well overall. I still ride the bike and enjoy it in the summer but for the weather it can't compare to the versatility, comfort and weather protection like the FJR. I like them both for various reasons. As you can see, I added GIVI V35s, a top case, touring screen, Throttlemeister throttle locks, grip warmers, and a Yamaha comfort seat. I love having them both but the FZ is relegated to second string. If I were you I would add a center stand if you want to really go long distance on it.[ATTACH type="full" alt="F5274BFE-A638-437C-A05C-C3BFCCB207A1.jpeg"]3339[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="FDAFC92F-EA4F-4E3A-A042-B6BDA340A42D.jpeg"]3340[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="DC7973E4-8D95-436E-8E8B-31E0889DCB3C.jpeg"]3341[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
