Good observation, they are all invincible until the road gives them a "rushing crash course test" real quick. Then they will be a whole lot smarter. They will be "educated" so to say for a true value(and cost) of their health & lives. Of course I do not wish anybody that rushing crash course...

Sure I agree! I listed all the sport japanese bikes so that transition to FZ6 would be very smooth. Also for reliability. Buell Blast was not included for reliability problems. Too many had reported troubles with it. :thumbup:

There are three great motorcycles that could be offered for the new and aspiring motorcycle sports rider. Number 1 on the list would definitely be a 250cc Kawasaki Ninja Number 2 would be a 500cc Suzuki GS (or more modern GSF). And finally number 3 and the most powerful of the bunch is a...

So now you have just completed the purchase. Your newly purchased bike is right in front of you, the keys are in your hand. You are all smiles overwhelmed with delight and joy. You are itching with almost irresistible temptation to ride your new bike home. If you had just got your license...

REMEMBER TO GET A FULL FACE HELMET! THIS IS A MUST DO THING FOR YOUR OWN WELL BEING! AGAIN A FULL FACE HELMET IS A MUST (DOT, or/and SNELL/ ECE approved and preferably with a history of brand name endorsed/favored by a professional racing organization). Ideal “safe” color is solid white, next...

A complete set of body armor protection CE (European plate certified armor) is a MUST for motorcycling. The parts of the body covered by armor should include complete back/spine protection (coverage of the entire spinal column), body armor should also provide front rib protection (covering...

AS Promised I am starting to publish my works on motorcycling. What are your two most important parts in your motorcycle? You might think it is the engine size and cool fairings that give your sport bike a cool head turning killer looks. No your two most important items upon which your...

Wow what a feedback. I will dig up some of my own virtues about motorcycling pretty soon. NOW the question why FZ6 is NOT a good starting bike? Because it simply is NOT. Engine is based on R6 from 2000-2001. Weight is 413 lbs dry. 0-60 in like 3.7 seconds. Now keep balance, watch heavy city...

Thank you for the thanks :) You are very welcome. :)

I guess I've got to work the throttle a bit harder and longer. Thanks for replies.:Sport:

Basically some good and sound Q&A from an expert (not me, not yet :). This is a must for the new riders especially. (I am scratching my head thinking how you guys gonna manage on FZ6-it is really NOT a beginner's bike in my humble opinion). If you have never ridden before and already got a FZ6...

NOT really a squid or show off (of course not a beginner on FZ6 either-some other bikes before) but the bike seems to have a top speed of 132 mph. It does not climb higher (2000 rpm shy of the red line rpm) than that or very reluctant to do so. It feels sleepy and sluggish after 130 mph. So is...

AWESOME SITE! ALL ANSWERS (TECHNICAL, SKILL, SURVIVAL TACTICS) IT IS A NON PROFIT SITE AND 200 LESSONS(TIPS) THERE ARE VERY, VERY USEFUL. AT LEAST TO ME. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ! Motorcycle Safety Site RUN BY TEXAN SAFETY EXPERT RIDER JAMES DAVIS.

IT IS YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE HERE RIGHT OR NOT? SO WHY WOULD YOU LISTEN TO AN IDIOT WHO IS STILL ALIVE (ONLY BECAUSE GOD TAKES CARE OF FOOLS AND KIDS : ). HELL THEY CAN LAUGH ALL THEY WANT TILL THEY FALL. Well next time refer a laughing idiot to Live to Ride - Ride to DIE. Let that sick *******...

I do. Yeah good comparison. Bullet proof jacket got like 36 thick industrial strenth kevlar / aramid layers and these jeans got like 1 and it is a crappy one too. Too thin. Knee sheen armor by bohn, icon etc and heavy duty leathers on top will do just fine.
