I'll add another naked black one to the Australia count for you. My little baby has just received a new set of ears on her......Rizoma Circuit 743's.

Nice mirrors buddy...bet you they cost you a pretty penny at Australian prices...Rizoma aint cheap in this part of the World....

great to see yet another Aussie in here....

Wolfman, at least you there can get Rizoma parts, here in Colombia you can't get anything of that, you need to order them from some USA store and that costs a loooot :D

For that sort of dough, you could probably find a dodgey surgeon who'll sew eyes into the back of your head:eek::spank::D...lol

For that sort of dough...you can get a power commander, and a truckload more ponies! :rockon:

Early birthday present from the missus.....so who am I to complain. Cost $330 (Aus) delivered from PJ Parts.

Very happy with them so far.....although fine tuning the visibility still.

Just traded my CBF250 in.
Picking up a secondhand 2009 FZ6 S on Thursday.
Regd in March 2009 and only done 4500kms. Older bloke bought it and trading in on a FZ1.

Looking forward to being able to do greater than 80 kph into the wind.
Oh yeah, and my regular midweek runs to lorne from Geelong.
Bring it on.

That is, if 'she who must be obeyed' doesn't mind.
Cheers Blokes,
Rumpole

Thanks for the welcome.
A bloke has already helped me to get some seat luggage sorted as I don't want to spoil the looks of the bike with a Ventura rack like I had on the CBF.
I can actually recall carrying a swag, tent and 50ltr RJays bag on the little Honda on my trip over Mount Hotham in March. Not much room left for a 93kg 6' 2" Standard Size Aussie.

Thanks again.

Next stop, bike alarm as I live in a Yuppie area and no doubt the YZ6 is more 'stealable' than a CBF
