Hi all,
First post here. I got a black FZ6 about a month ago brand new with one mile on it. 4 weeks later I have 1100 miles on it. Damn Gremlins!
anyway.. I rode dirt bikes from when i was about 5 till about 18 or so. Im 39 as of a few days ago. I was trying to take it easy wanting to learn to ride again with my new bike, especially all my experience is with dirt.
But lately, within the last week or so, my street riding is taking the charastics of my dirt riding. I was never crazy as hell on dirt. but I rode the bike.
The first time i rode the street bike after riding for so long 45mph felt like 100 and that was a country road.
Now i get on the highway and look down at the meter and im like doing 90mph. admit it. it is easy to do. tuck on these FZ6's and you are cruizing if you happen to.
My question is do you think im pushing it too soon? my dirt days (and skills) are comming back. but sometimes i scare myself a little. But its SO F'n FUN!
I guess i should throttle back and get that first oil change.

Later.
