So after a brief dance with almost buying a new 2007 FZ6 back in '07 I put the whole FZ6 thing on the back burner after a close friend passed away and I ended up buying his Sportster 1200 from his widow to help her out... Fast forward to 2013 and three bikes later and I find myself in the market for a used bike. I have been eyeing up a 2006 Triumph Tiger and a clean 2008 FZ6 locally.
Both of these bikes are bikes that I have always liked and wanted to own at some point. I know the Tiger will have more power and maybe comfort, but something about the FZ6 with it's better looks (IMO) and somewhat inappropriate motor intrigues me. I also happen to like light bikes that get good MPG and handle well.
The Tiger has a somewhat suspicous history and the FZ6 is a bit steep on price.
Any thoughts?
