Hi folks! I'm Pedro Rodriguez out here in sunny California and I've been stalking this forum since Mar-Apr while deciding on my next bike. If the FZ6 had a shaft drive, It'd be my perfect bike ![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I bought the (slower) blue 06 with 21k miles bone stock.
My only upgrades thus far have been:
-Puig Double Bubble
-Frame Sliders
-2" Bar risers
(Picture Prior to Sliders)
I spent a good month getting used to the quick clutch and throttle before finally taking off for a month around the country.
I was really worried about doing this on the stock seat but during the month long trial period, It never became an issue. It is a very firm seat and I'm proud to say I did 1,000 miles in a day between Point 10 and 11 (through the Tail of the Dragon). The final stretch home from Tuscon, AZ was a 910 Mile day as well.
My only complaint was my right wrist. I used a throttle lock but it would still complain on the longer days. I'm definitely considering the FZ1 bar switch for the less aggressive pull.
