New Bike-New Bike Owner
Hello and thanks for the forum. I purchased my first ever bike yesterday, a 2004 FZ6. Registered it today, recieved my permit, and signed up for a safety class. So far, so good. The bike is fantastic and everything more than I expected.
45 old male in Tucson. Never too late to ride. |

Re: New Bike-New Bike Owner
Welcome to the forum! Congrats on your new bike. Post pictures when you can. The MSF course is worth every penny. I am planning on signing up my wife for it to try to get her into riding.

Re: New Bike-New Bike Owner
45 years young! Congrats on getting the best of bikes! Great choice!
I am 43 and am picking up my 2nd FZ6 in a couple weeks... I sold the '05 and after looking over all other comparable models, came right back to the FZ6 again... So, it's an upgrade to the '08!!! Enjoy the bike and drive safe!!

Re: New Bike-New Bike Owner
i started last year at 37. Rode 2 months on an old yammie FJ and then sold it and bought a new 07 FZ. Taking the SSF course not only gets your license here in Oregon, but it was the best way to do it too. I am planning on doing the intermediate this year and the advanced next.
Someone here recommended the book "Total Control". Its pretty good not really for beginners but I recommend. |
