Don't know if it'll work.I don't know how much the FZ1 weighs.If it's lighter than the GS, it will compress.If it's heavier than the GS it will raise it.If it only has 9mm over the GS shock,it might go .25 to .50 of an inch higher.
PICS are GONE never TO return.

OPPPS.Top shock mount won't fit because of the resvoir.That's why hardly no one runs the GSXR shocks.

the only thing that might disterb ' is the airbox , which is unnessesary anyway

hope to update till the end of the week .
