Hey guys,
I am the lucky owner of a new (old) FZ6 S2 and it has been a blast for the last few days.
I have had a few surprises though and because I am not familiar with this bike it feels a bit awkward for me.
The FZ6 I have feels very different from what I rode in the past. When I turn at low speed I feel like the bike wants to turn more and I have to "fight" to keep the bike where I point it to. At high speeds it feels the opposite.. counter steering feels hard compared to what I am used to. I had a monster 696 before this one and that one was very light and flickable, this one is very different.
Is any of this a usual thing with the FZ6s?
The other thing is that it feels like the bike wants to turn more towards the left than the right.. I am not sure if it really is the case or if I am making this up somehow but sometimes its like I am losing balance to the left.. This sounds serious but again, it might just be my imagination.
Cheers guys,
Otto
