Howdy,

I've posted a few times, but didn't introduce myself.

I'm Lenny, originally from Long Island, NY, but going to grad school in Boston. I've got an 05 FZ6 in Silver that I bought new last year as an overstock. Didn't get to ride it much in between, but since I brought the bike up to Boston it's been a blast. I mostly use it for commuting back and forth from school and back (Boston's public transportation leaves a lot to be desired), but will probably start taking longer trips once I'm past the break-in period and get a little more experience with the bike.

Great forum.

Hello all....

My time has come. I will finally own a 2008 FZ6 in the black. I will be picking it up in a few hours at my local stealership. It is about time.

The bike was in a crate a few hours ago and is being assembled as we speak. I will keep you guys posted and shoot some pics up when I get a chance.

What's up. I'm brand new to the forum. Gonna be the owner of a blue 04 FZ6 tomorrow. Ran into a guy at the local bike shop. He has a FZ6 and was looking for a race bike, I was looking for something more comfortable than my 04 R6. Well, tomorrow were going down to the dmv to trade. He's giving me a little cash also but were both getting a good deal.

Welcome Aboard everyone.

I got it. It was everything you guys said it was and more. Great bike. Here are a couple pics.





I was so caught up with the bike, I forgot to reintroduce myself. I'm Alex, and I love to ride. I live in So Cal and really enjoy this forum. I also have a DRZ 400, an SV650 and a TT125 for my wife.

I ride both dirt and street and have trouble deciding what I like more.

Plans for the FZ6;

1. Take off ALL the stickers. I think there is a million of them.

2. Repeat step with stock blinkers and decals.

2. Luggage. Hard Givi cases.

3. Exhaust

4. Comfort seat.

5. Take to Laguna Seca on September 4-6, Cheer for Nicky Hayden, repeat cycle every 365 days.

Thanks for all the input, it has been very helpful. See you on the road.

Hello, my name is Per and I live in a town called Malmö in southern Sweden. Just recently bought my Fz-6 N and I think it is a perfect all-round bike. I have been riding various bikes sense I was sixteen years old and then with a couple of years without a bike, I bought this one.
Have made two mods so far, the headlight fairing and another plate holder. I have been a member for a couple of weeks now and i find this site very helpful and interesting.
I make my living as a truck driver delivering frozen food to different supermarkets in southern Sweden.

Have a great day y all.

My name is Mark Goodale and live in beautiful Beaverton Oregon. I just got my rocket fast blue FZ6 in April. I absolutly love it. There is a few mods I want to do but in due time. I have ordered the Puig dark smoke windshield. I have a Honda CRF250X dirt bike. It's a perfect bike for riding the many awsome spots off road in Oregon. I have had quite a few street bikes over the years and probably too many to list. This forum is great. I have really enjoyed it. I would like to thank the members for all there comments and recomendations.

Hi there!
My name is John and I'm a new guy from Atlanta, GA. I bought my '06 FZ-6 two days ago and have been smiling ever since. It has a grand total of 50 miles on it! The previous owner dropped it early and messed his wrist up, so he had to sell it... So I bought a slightly scratched bike at an awesome price.

The board provided me with some excellent advice as I was searching for my bike, and it actually brought me over from the dark side/SV650 world that I was originally interested in. Thanks again for all the advice and I look forward to racking up the miles on my "new" bike! -John
