I am new to street bikes (long history with dirt bikes) and was about to pull the trigger on an FZ6 when I made the mistake of reading Motrocycle magazine comparison tests.
Without fail all of them disliked the FZ6 engine saying that it lacked low end torque and required hunting for the right gear. Thus, for casual riding, it was not the best choice. Of course they all loved the SV650.
My question is, for those of you who own an FZ6, do you agree that the bike does not have sufficient torque (and perhaps power) in the lower RPMs? Do you need to dog the bike to have fun?
Thanks in advance.
