And what a bike it is!
Put 70 miles on it in the freezing cold weather up here in Michigan. First things you notice compared to the FZ6 are how smooth the bike is. Throttle control is amazing, and the slipper clutch is worth every penny. With the fizzer I wouldn't go below 2nd gear unless I...
Went to a trackday at Grattan Raceway in Michigan. It was with the local BMW dealer, but they had intermediate and I got some great pictures out of it. I highly recommend going to this track if you can, some very unique corners and elevation change.
Went out today for a photo shoot on the bike. Got my Aerostich Roadcrafter one piece suit last week, and hadn't taken any recent shots of the bike with the mods yet.

Rode the Dragon yesterday for the first time. :rockon: Sweet road! Nothing in MI is going to compare now.
Bought my FZ6 3 weeks ago, added some frame sliders, Cee-Baileys windscreen, Givi v46, and cruise control...
