Yep. 65hp FZ4 with a Genesis motor, but a twin.. Lower cost.... Problem is, I'd buy it, too!!

It's that gap that needs to be filled.. The problem with the small bikes is that they don't have enough power to get out of the way, or to pass quickly.. A friend of mine has a 16 year old daughter who's been riding since she was 5 years old.. She's a very good rider, and is riding a DR200...

What really sucks is that a new rider today has a very limited choice for a first bike, even if looking at something 10 years old..:( There are no "beginner" bikes out there.. I started riding (dating myself here) on a 1974 Honda CB360T, and I was told that was too big for a beginner bike...

As far as I can tell, because I paid and my good looks.. :thumbup: I'll miss the bike.. I miss it now.. :( I bought a big, expensive BMW and for the last two days I've been riding my 26 year old 800..:thumbup:

Bike rode away from me last Friday morning and the check's cashed.. So I'm gonna say yeah.. :D

Well, there's only one problem with a Mini Fz rally.. :( http://www.600riders.com/forum/sell-your-bike-car-truck/38445-2007-yamaha-fz6-w-full-givi-luggage-sport-touring-way-should-il-wi.html

Well, you're getting closer. Basically, you need to get further west.. This map was made by a guy in your neck of the woods.. It was made up for dual sporting, so ignore the gravel..:BLAA:

It was supposed to rain/hail/etc., but I rode anyway.. Didn't do anything, though.. I'll ride in the rain tomorrow to make up for not riding in it today..:thumbup:

I caught myself looking at a 1982 Yamaha 550 Vision, just like I had in the late Eighies.. Then I slapped myself and reminded myself that I just sold a great bike because I needed room.. Duh!! It's going to stay the way it is, unless I get a burr under my saddle and decide to sell my little...

Yep.. I preregistered a couple months ago. I look forward to this rally every year.. It's just a good old, sit down around the campfire and have a few beers and tell/listen to some stories.. The campground has a bunch of permanant campers that have a golf cart parade on Saturday night...

Wisconsin Moto Guzzi Riders The 27th Annual Wisconsin Moto Guzzi Riders Rally will be held on August 5 - 7, 2011 at Lake Joy Campground. All brands are welcome. Registration is $30 before July 1, 2011 and $45 at the gate. We will feature Wisconsin's best grilled brats & burgers Friday...

You have no idea how bummed I was as I walked back into the building when you guys left.. :( I will miss that bike.. I didn't have it that long, but it was lot of fun last fall and this spring, and the space in the garage is nice to have.. Before you spend some cash on other windscreens, try...

All three hold a full face helmet (you're talking FZ6, right?) It's a full Givi setup.. I bought it on the bike, but I know the whole thing is available from Sporttour.com.

Yes it does.. You should store your bike over winter with fresh oil.. Used oil has acids that harm your engine during storage.. If you store it with fresh oil, you're not storing it was dirty, acid laden oil..

I'm with OMG.. Since I'm a little heavier, and it's an old habit, I typically run 35f and 38r... Pretty much all the time.. And I run PR2's... I think the only big difference with the 3's are the extra rain grooves..

Exactly.. I loved riding the FZ6, but it was purchased to be my sport touring bike.. Then I bought a Dual Sport Touring bike and I decided to sell the Fz6 while it was still very fresh.. I'd gotten a good deal when I bought it last fall because it was the end of the season and the person I bough...

The offer is always open.. I rode back from Spokane last weekend with my new (to me) 2005 R1200Gs, and I've still got my other two older BMW's, as well as my KLR.. Yeah, I'll find something to ride.. :D This was me at the MT/WY state line of Beartooth Pass on June 4th (touch over a week ago)

Those photos are before I actually washed it, too.. I've never named a bike until my GS.. It's name is George.. It's because of the Bugs Bunny cartoon where the Abominal Snowman finds the little Bunny Rabbit. I will hug him and stroke him and I will name him George.. A friend of mine said...

Thank you!! Can I still hang out here, even though I'm not a Yamaha owner?:rockon:

Well, the mounts and bags sell for $950 and are a PITA to remove.. Also I bought the bike with them installed and don't have the parts to put it back to stock..
