Doesn't the Gen II FZ1 use a coil-on-plug ignition system? If so, the wires leading to the coils are low voltage wiring and shouldn't need to be replaced during the life of the bike.

The Gen I FZ1 uses two remote coils to fire four sparkplugs, but the ignition wires are integral to the coils - replacing the wires requires replacing the coils unless you can make some sort of wire splice near the coil. The sparkplug boots on the Gen I can be replaced, but this is rarely necessary as they can be removed, dissassembled and cleaned if necessary.
