Greetings from SoCal! - Yamaha FZ6 Forums - International FZ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

al8er7 · 12-18-2007, 04:36 PM

Hello everyone. I'm not an FZ6 owner but my Dad just bought one in June shortly after I bought my bike. I'd have to say this has brought us a lot closer together and I enjoy our father/son bond more than ever today. Anyway, he loves his bike. He uses it to commute a few times a week here in SoCal since you can pretty much ride all year long. Just introducing his bike out there. I must say though, riding a GSXR600 and hopping onto a FZ6 is a world of difference. I personally love the comfort for the FZ6 more than my own bike and it's so easy to handle as well. The banana seat definitely comes in handy if you're riding 2up. Anyway, I look forward to checking out this forum. Thank you.

Here are some pictures..

Mods - Flush front signals, Competition Werkes fender eliminator, Scorpion slip on and CATZ (FET Japan) HID 4300K lowbeam.

welcome to the forum, it is very cool that you and your dad found such an awesome lifestyle to share, is this his first bike? If so he went right for some cool mods right off the bat!
