Hi, my name is Linda and I live in Cabot, AR.

I am married and have two kids, Bailey and Spencer. I have previously owned a Ninja 250 and a CBR600RR. I have been without a bike for a couple of years, but got bit by the bug again when my husband bought a Kawasaki Z1000. Now I can't wait to ride again! I ran across the previews for the new FZ6R and decided that it's the bike for me! I'm kinda short (5'3), so I think the seat height will make it more comfortable for me. Anyway, I really enjoy the forum...I have learned so much already!

Hi,
I'm a new rider and new owner of an 2008 FZ6. I love my bike and have a lot of fun riding behind my husband on his ZX1000. I'm in Richland, WA. Have 2 grown kids, one granddaughter, 2 standard longhair dachshunds and a husband. I groom dogs and sew historical costumes. I've already learned a lot from the forum and enjoy reading your posts.

Hi everyone!

28 (soon to be 29) year old norwegian with a new facination for motorcycles. Made my final driving test last week, bought my 05 FZ6-N three weeks ago, and have spend pretty much all my spare time driving:rockon:

Hey everyone, I joined the forums to get as much information about the FZ6 as possible...I don't own one YET but plan to as soon as I can. I live Near Simpsonville/Greenville, SC and recently moved here from Peoria, IL. I recently sold my 83 Kawi KZ440, so I really miss being on some twisty roads. I'm 27 and work in IT. I've seen a couple of these bikes around, so I'll bet I'll find some GVille folks on the boards!

Hi,

my name is Robert, age 36, and I live in Portugal. I own a 2004 Silver FZ6, and although I've only had my bike driver license since Aug 2005, I've done more than 45.000 km and am still waiting to get tired of it.

I work as a computer technician and programmer, self employed, which is the same to say that I can go riding whenever I want as long as the boss goes with me (all you married men know what I'm talking about)

Hello People, my name is Andre and I live in the Netherlands (that little country on the otherside, viewed from Brittain, of the pond they call North Sea). I bought a FZ6 in 2005 and still own it. Sadly, due to some health problems I didn't ride that much in the first year but I'm making up for that now. I use it every day to commute and I have some trips planned the next couple of weeks. Amongst others to the (in)famous Nurburgring track in Germany. the colour is Galaxy blue with a Silver frame, actually prefer the Silver frame over the black one from recent years. This year I installed a nice new exhaust: BOS GT Performance. I'll post some pictures later. Really enjoy all the useful (technical) information I found on this forum.

Besides the FZ6 I also got an old Yammie FJ600, which I use mostly in the winter season. Currently I'm getting this oldie ready to roll again.

:Sport:

My name is Mark Goodale and have owned my 07 FZ6 since March. Love my bike. I also have a Honda CRF 250X dirt bike. Oregon is one of the greatest places to ride on the street or dirt. I have done a couple of mods. K & N air filter, Cortec sport tail pack, lower cowling and Puig dark smoke wind screen. I am planning on the Olin rear shock mod and something for the front forks. Yamaha sure cheaped out on the suspension. Great bike however. I will get a Two Brother Racing exhaust and probably a rear fender elimator kit. Don't really need to do much else. Just turned 2300 miles. I just need to win the lottery to do these mods. Otherwise hopefully next year. This is a great forum web site.
Thanks,:thumbup:

Hey all,
New to the site and the daughter and I just picked up a couple of FZ6s to add to the familiy stable. I'm so glad we found this site. Love all the info and look forward to getting to know a bunch of you. This is her second bike and my........... well lets just say I've been through a bunch of them. We just did the Oyster Run here in Washington and had a blast on her first run.

Ride safe and keep the rubber down
