Gettin' Fizzy wit it
Hi all, I posted here a couple years ago when I was going through my "holy crap I need another motorcyle phase" when doing some research on the FZ6. I ended up getting a sweet deal on a barely used K7 Suzuki DL650 VStrom...
Anyways, I've had the bike almost 2 years now, and part of me craves something just a tad different. My thoughts keep drifting back to the FZ6. Don't get me wrong, the Wee-Strom is a great bike, but I'm not sure it's the best fit for me at this point. I was hoping to get into a little light dual-sporting with it, but that just hasn't been the case. I find myself craving a little more punch at the higher end of the spectrum, and frankly, something a tad easier on the eyes.
I mainly use it for commuting, light-duty touring, and twisties fun whenever I get the chance. For those 3 purposes, it would seem the FZ's are extremely well suited. I'd even like to throw in a track day every now and then.
So has anyone made the jump from 'Strom to FZ? Anyone own both? I'd like to see how they compare from someone who has decent experience on both bikes. Thanks in advance for any comments/advice?
