Finally Pulled the Trigger (Pics Inside)

[ryan00ss]

First post! Whats goin on ya'll. Im Ryan and I live in Orlando,FL. Been lurking around this site for the past couple weeks and it helped confirm my decision to get an fz6 as my first bike. Found this one 15 minutes after it was posted and picked it up for 2800 later that day. Helluva deal compared to the other ones I was looking at. Its an 06 Blue FZ6 with 3900 miles on it. Never dropped and not a scratch on it. All records of maintenence from a yamaha dealer. I couldnt pass this one up. I took the bike just for one spin down to the end of the street and back and lemme tell you, I cant wait to get this thing registered tomorrow and on the road. Now for the good stuff :BLAA:

Bringin her home

[ryan00ss]

[Motogiro]

Congratulations!
I had the same year and color. Great bike!:rockon:

Grats, good thing you got the blue one, we all know they are faster and better.

I got the exact bike here in Canada, 2 months ago, 4800$ with 20k kilometers.

Have fun !!

Now the REAL question, what will be the 1st mod !!???

:BLAA:

Awesome deal!! Take a good close look at the tires. They have plenty of rubber, but they're somewhat old.. check them carefully for dry rot.
I'd also change oil and filter. Can't hurt.
Enjoy!!

 

[ryan00ss]

Thanks again guys, ill check out the tires and oil and what not. Last full service was at 2000 miles i think he said. Ill look into everything tomorrow. As for the first mod, i def wanna get an FE kit soon. Maybe fz1 handlebars and exhaust down the road.

 

[Full Throttle]

Gorgeous! Good luck!

Nice ride! Great deal! Check out my video post! YouTube - ‪Kevin's Christmas 2010 Yamaha FZ6 Gift from Fiance!‬‏

I agree with Erci, ditch the tires. If they are the stock tires, they are too old. They have lost it's grip. Unless you are planning to ride in a straight line (well you are in Florida), get them replaced.

Congrats on your purchase.

Erci beat me to it. Nice deal. She looks great. Use the money you saved to pick up a pair of PR2s. Ride safe.

You can't be serious about tho price. Maybe its because you're in Florida? Check out the one i just bought dorm 3200. A year olDer and with 3k more miles

thats a clean ride ya got there. And yea totally serious. All of the other ones were posted around 3900. Then this one popped up for 3000 and i immediately called, rented a trailer and picked her up. He said he had 6 calls about it by the time i got to his house. Got him down to 2800 and hauled her home. He was an older guy with too many toys. The deals are out there, just gotta be patient.

Yeah i was gonna say he could have gotten at least a grand more for it. Yours is so nice dreading your thread definitely made me envy your luck!

Older guys can NOT have too many toys!

[DavidG-757]

yea man welcome to the crew. without a doubt a good bike, but i guess everyone here has a bias about them. get it legal quick because i can tell you, riding dirty on the back roads gets old quick when you just want to let it all out haha enjoy
