Hey guys, my name is Mel, and I've been riding for about 45 years. I grew up on dirt bikes, and started racing dirttrack in 1967. I bought a new Yamaha RD350 in 1973 when they first came out, and I've been on street bikes ever since. I currently own a red 2007 RZ6. I live down at the beach here in Capitola, CA. I'm always ready to ride, so if any of you are near my area, just get in touch with me. I work out of my home, so my schedule is very flexible.

Mel

Hi
Just about to get my naked FZ6 S2 in go-faster blue

to replace my Honda CBF600 which although slow, is very smooth to ride. Here in the UK the number (registration) plate system changes every 6 months so everybody considers that when buying a new car or bike. So am waiting for the 1st of September to collect it with the new registration plate.

Hello All,

My name is Steve Colgan from Edmonton, Alberta. Been riding for about 3 years now, starting out on a 1983 Suzuki 650 Tempter and upgraded to a 2006 FZ6 this past spring. I could not resist as I got a super sweet deal $2300 off the posted price at Blackfoot Motosports in Calgary, Alberta and it was the bike that I wanted!

. Now I can say I've ridden through snow as the day I brought it back to Edmonton I had to ride through flurries. 7500km on the bike now after being almost daily ridden and a 5000km trip through B.C, Washington, Idaho & Montana this past month with a buddy.

Steve
