I picked up my bike from the shop this past Friday.
They found the cause of the dead battery ( loose connection at the battery). I was a bit apprehensive about the ride home from the shop, as I am a new rider, and some of the roads I needed to take were highways, and i had never ridden an FZ6 before. But it wasn't long before I felt comfortable with the handling qualities and power of the motorcycle.
The weather here in northern Virginia was perfect both Saturday and Sunday so i spent most of them cruising the local country back roads. Those of you unfamiliar with N. Va can imagine colorful leaves on the trees, bright sunshine and twisty, hilly two lane blacktop surrounded by farms and woods and Civil War battlefields as well as some very nice estates.
I put enough time and miles on the FZ6 to realize that the stock seat was not going to cut it for me. So today I ordered a Top Saddlery seat to replace it. Unfortunately, by the time it gets here, the riding season will probably be over here due to cold. But I'm looking forward to the spring.
