Newbie - new FZ6

Hello all.

I've got home this evening after visiting my local Yamaha dealer. I've got a Suzuki GSXR750 at the moment, after a long line of GSXR's.. This is my third!

A change in use has seen me getting very little out of it, it doesn't feel that good until it's going like the clappers! So, I thought it time for a change.

I've part exchanged a 2003 GSXR with 15k on the clock and bought a 12 month old, with new rear tyre and 2800 miles on the clock for a few hundred quid. Lifetime warranty if it's serviced by a dealer in the same group.

Bargain I say, let the madness commence. It's everything I need, I couldn't beleive it when I was enjoying it, then thought I'd see if it gets to the redline Very happy!

Just needs to sound a little more butch.. Think an exhaust might help!

It's the orange one from 2007, *edit, link now gone - pics will follow.

So - hi, I'll be posting more soon! New to this site, new to FZ's, but not new to forums

Picking up the new bike today - I'm getting rather excited, and just hope the wind drops a bit!
