I bought my 07 FZ6 last May with 5906 miles on it while I was working in Huntsville Alabama, I put a few hundred miles on it before I moved back to New Mexico. As of 5/17/11 I have 18,334 miles and have enjoyed putting every mile on it since. This is my second bike in the last 9 years, upgrading from my 72 CB750, the Yamaha is far superior. 
Im sure I don't have to sell this bike to anyone on here but I have had zero problems in the last year, I keep up with my oil changes and lube what needs to be lubed when it should be. Pros: Light weight, great breaks, comfortable riding posture(I am 5'7") and very easy to maneuver Cons: (In my opinion) Front fork is a little soft, still need to try a heavier oil or some new springs. Stock seat was very uncomfortable, I had it shaved to remove the edges and to allow my butt to actually sit in the seat and the single head light. I am currently waiting for my mod from bd43, can't wait!!!
Some of the mods I have done.
-Givi side cases and top rack. Still need to pick up the V46 top case.
-Admore LED lights for the side cases. Has driving, brake and turn signal functions.
-Givi wind screen. Just installed it today, much less wind on the body but more wind noise on the helmet. I am wondering if a spoiler would help.....
-Additional fuel containers on the bottom side of the Givi's. An emergency half gallon just in case.
-12v adapter for my Ipod. Can't survive a straight stretch of interstate with out the Ipod!
Future Mods.
-Givi V46 top case.
-Denali D2 LED riding lights.
-Oxford Heated grips.
-Crash bars.
Planing a trip down thru Baja Cali and look forward to having the FZ6 as my bike. I thank all of the members that have been so generous with the information on this forum!!!
