What is the average age of FZ6 rider?

[OneTrack]

I had to chuckle to myself yesterday when I pulled into one of the bike dealers on my "trap line" saturday ride. In the parking lot were about half a dozen old farts on cruisers, who initially regarded me with a great deal of disdain when I rode in on my (quickest) red FZ6. When I pulled off my helmet and they realized I was probably a decade older than they were, they wandered over to "look at my bike" and ask "how it was on the highway".
Nice to see a bit of respect from them young fellers. :rockon:
(oh, btw...my response to "how it was on the highway" was "A lot more fun than those slugs".....old guys can get away with saying stuff like that.:Flip: )

Great story, OneTrack! :thumbup:

 

[OneTrack]

WOOT!! I see that there's now 7 of us more mature, smarter, cheaper insurance FZ6 dudes over 50 on the poll.
(Although I have no idea why my wife, family, friends and neighbours shake their heads and roll their eyes every time I show up on my bike... )

They are just jealous that a man of your age is still having so much fun! People think that us "older" fellows shouldn't have fun!:rant:

"They say that if you can remember the 60's, you weren't really there"

 

[Mobius]

Sixty-going on sixty-one. Just bought a 2004 blue Fz6(I heard the blue ones were faster). Haven't ridden in 25 years. My kids think I'm nuts, my secretaries think I'm nuts. Who knows? Rick

Way to go! :thumbup:
No, you're not nuts....just everybody will THINK you are.

 

[dako81]

Wow, I didn't know there wouldn't be more in my age group....Guess it's just us two...

I wouldn't worry mate, your picture makes you look easily in your 30's lol.

Is it because of the hippy hair? I've been contemplating getting it cut.
