I went back to the guy today and bought the FZ6. It's an 06 with only 1400 miles and cost me 3600 bucks. Perfect condition. The guy bought it 2 years ago and only put on 500 miles. I did that much on my GS500 the first 2 weeks I had her! LOL
Rode it home, about 45 minutes all highway. WOW what a great bike! So glad I chose this over the F4i. It's got amazing power, control, and stability. Being able to go from 65 to 80 in a second was amazing to me. The GS would take 10 times as long. Actually the stability on the highway is what I noticed the most. My old GS was getting blown all over the place, even though it had very similar fairings (I took off the sides and left the upper cowling). Before I wasn't able to pass big trucks without the feeling of getting knocked off my bike...lol. Now, I didn't even notice it. It actually feels like a 'real' motorcycle.
So thanks for your help. I'll be around for a while. Here are a couple pics the owner had on CL:
