What's the reason behind adding FZ1000 bars? - Yamaha FZ6 Forums - International FZ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

Looking at an '07 FZ6 that a guy has added FZ1000 bars to. What's the reasoning behind this? Are they a shorter bar, more rake or what?

Thanks!

I'm guessing he meant the FZ1 bars...

Looks like a pretty commond mod, guess I should have looked around before posting.

Wider, lower, and more aggresive riding position overall. Plus they don't have the bend in them that the FZ6 bars have. All big plusses in my opinion.
