Thank you :thumbup: Nick, from all reports, the FZ6 performs great two-up touring, so I don't think 280lb would be a problem. Some impressions: I find the FZ very easy to handle and maneuver, it feels light for the size of it. As a "sporty-tourer" as I call it, I think it tends a lttle...

Hi, Nick, Welcome from Eastern MA! The FZ6 is a really great bike. Sounds like you may be all set with your trade-in deal. But if you'd consider an outright purchase, here's a sales pitch -- please consider my '07 for sale on this forum -- take a look -- 11K miles...

My new-to-me 07 FZ6 came with a Throttle Tamer throttle tube installed, read all about it here: G2 Ergonomics - Throttle Tubes and Moto Parts That should take care of any abrupt throttle issues. I have one on my Ducati, too, great product. Sure sounds like the prices are different in Canada...

Re: WTB: Stock turn signals for 07 FZ6 Still need stock turn signals for the rear of my 07. Any out there FS?

Love the colors on your FZ, nice. I've had the red '69 Triumph Tiger since 1974, and the black Triumph is a Bitsa, 68-70-71. The red Honda is the third CB77 I've owned, I bought the first one new in 1964 :Flash:

Thanks, PM sent.
