Right now i have zero miles on it since im deployed. My dad stopped my the Yamaha dealership for something for his FJR and just asked about the FZ6 and they had a black one in stock for a good deal so he picked it up for me (using my money).

Im going home for about 18 days in August so i'm going to be putting as many miles on it as possible. Will post pics
