Yea absolutely, thats what really drew me to the bike in the first place via the reveiws, well apart from the fact I think its the sexiest 600 available :p (that had a tiny || impact too)

good call......went looking for a naked 600, first one i saw was the fizzer, liked it a lot, then i rode it...liked it a lot more, leaves the rest of them, apart from the Triumph, in the shade...especiaaly the kwaka z750....i think some one was joking when they put that engine in a Kawasaki...lacking, is not the word...most un-kawasaki!

:eek:

Yea I was pretty disapointed by the z750 too,
I actually chose not to test ride the triumph because the price difference was really large and I didn't like the look anywhere near as much. I've heard the engine is great but I wanted the all round bike. The guy at the dealership said if I was happy with the fz6 not to bother with the triumph because it could make it a more confusing choice
Good advice I think :p

You don't have any knowledge of the Dri-rider Nordic Pro, do you? I have got an add from team moto they are selling them for 239$, and I need a better ( and more waterproof) winter jacket, and with the weekend away considering grabbing one (last time I did this trip it rained for 99.98% of the journey)

This is my baby, unfortunately feeling a little neglected with all the rain and cold, i'll do one, or the other - but not both!

I actually had a look at your bike to buy, obviously before you purchase... crazy. Its good condition bike for sure!!!! On that day, I purchased FZ6N...

ooops, this is first time to post and I posted wrong spot... Now I cannot delete too. Bloody beginner web rider.. allow me. I was too excited to see the bike that I test ride before I get my one...

i have the summit pro pants, and they are hardcore.....i have a friend who has the nordic pro jacket, and he loves it...very warm and dry....

Dri rider stuff is pretty damn good these days, and that's a great price...aussie made too, so easy to get fixed if it does cack itself!

:thumbup:

Yea that was my line of thought too, I know they got some not-so-good reveiws early days, but now they get a much better writeup, my Ixon jacket has been great, but for some reason the waterproofing seems to have died, and its also not a full length, nor with proper waterproof arms/collar
