Hi all! I've just registered, it looks like a really great site, looking forward to learning more about the FZ6. You can only learn so much from reviews.
I currently ride an 05 SV650N (naked). While I love the torque and flickability of this bike, I feel it's somehow just not the bike for me. So I'm at a point now where I'm either going to modify my bike and keep it or sell it and pick something else up.
Things I like about the FZ6 are the wind protection, the big gas tank, the center-stand, the top end power, good 2-up capabilities, and it just seems more like a sports-tourer.
The problem is that I've never ridden one, no one I know has one either! So, would anyone be willing to meet up and swap bikes for a short ride? I just want to get a feel on how the power comes on, how it brakes, the suspension, how that 180 rear tire feels in low speed turns, all that. I live in the San Gabriel Valley, but I'd be willing to ride out as far north as Ventura, as far south as Irvine, and as far east as San Bernardino, etc.
Here's a pic of my bumblebee, shortly after I got it.
Thank you!
