Re: Top Speed
Thanks Ben,

Looks like a nice stretch of road. Very little to no entry points during your run. Looks pretty isolated.

Re: Top Speed
Only 91 mph here. For some reason I feel the speed more on the fz6 than on the baby ninja. Both have/had enlarged screens too. Maybe because the fz is taller. When the time is right I'll hit triple digits, but no hurry. Safety first.

Re: Top Speed
i didnt know you can pass the 85-90 mph mark (keping it just below 8k rpm) during break-in. for me, since im still breaking it in, i've only topped it around there.

Yes, it's a very nice piece of road, in the middle of no where :-)

Hello, first time posting here.

The fastest I have had my FZ6 is 149mph on a nice long stretch of highway north of Chattanooga.

Thanks anyway, as a reminder to us all, Defy's way should be the only way. However, if not, I was just curious where everyone picked their spot.
