I must say that I would have prefered a under seat exhaust. But there are elements that I like about it. Including the wheels, and swing arm. I don't like the split seat. That should only be on R models and race replicas. Over all I think the styling works best on the naked version.

Thanks for your replies. I was thinking a independent shop might be the way to go. Wouldn't be as interested in selling parts.

:confused:My 07 got blown over in a wind storm. It bent a foot peg and jarred something loose in the gas tank. When I fill up, it leaks out down to 3/4s. The dealer would only replace the parts at big bucks. I'd like to find a quality shop that can do repairs, not just swap parts. I just moved...

I think since you have had dirt bike experience that the FZ6 would not be a bad choice for you. But I do recomend the Motorcyle Safety Course. It offers a lot of good knowledge about riding on the street. Plus if it tests for your states endorsment, it's well worth the money. It offers a lot...

Welcome Grackel. Tell us about your cycling history. Yeah, and post those pics.

Welcome to the Forum. Enjoy!

Me too! Plus, invest in a pair of gloves with padded palms. Welcome to the forum.
