Ok, I'm bracing for the beating I'm going to get after posting this, but........
I like the versys. A buddy of mine bought one and I've ridden it a couple times. It's a pretty nifty little bike. For the price point it actually has a few things I wish the FZ6 did like a very comfortable seat, fully adjustable suspension (front and rear), LED tail lights, ventilated discs, and a passing light switch (I know.......but sometimes the small details make a big difference). It's also a taller bike (which is a lot of why I like it). I fit more comfortably on it than I do the FZ (long legs). The trade off of course is that it only has about 2/3 the horespower and weighs about the same, oh and it has narrower tires too (not really important to some people). Riding it, I found it to be a very capable bike. It doesn't have a ton of get-up-and-go, but what it does have is accessible throughout the powerband (unlike on our bike, where you have to break 7K). It dips into corners quick and easy (even with high handle bars) and feels confident in a deep lean. Stops in a hurry too if the situation requires it.
This is just my opinion, and as I mentioned above, a lot of why I like the bike comes from the fact that it seems to have been designed for taller riders and longer rides. Anyways, begin the ridicule......
No ridicule, I almost bought a Versys, but unlike you, the bike was too high. I'm only 5'10\" so I was tippy toeing the bike, not the most secure thing. I really liked the bike, very well rounded and capable motorcycle.
I am in agreement with Shaggy (apart from the tall bit as I am short). I test road one when I was thinking about the FZ6. It was very nice to ride indeed.Ok, I'm bracing for the beating I'm going to get after posting this, but........
