my first ride ever on my new bike!:cheer::rockon:

Temps between 3 and 5 C and pretty clean roads meant I could pick her up! It was a short and careful ride (new tires and cold, wet roads) but it was still great! The aggressive riding position still didn't bother me at all, but in order to get a bit more room for my legs, I'm gonna move the pegs to the lowest position. After that I'm gonna add a few bits to it;)

Usually the first thing I think of with a new bike is to swap out the pipe, but I kind of like the style on the 08 750 can.. Not to mention it has a cool and not too loud growl to it:D Didn't even need earplugs! Will post up pics when the weather gets nicer:)

Weather is still crap but my dad took a few pics with his iPhone.. Quality isn't good but here she is=)

Had them put on some clear protective film on each side of the tank for me. Could hardly see it was there even when I looked for it! The cf look tank protector was also really nice:)

Will get back with better pics once the weather clears and I put on the few parts I have lying around for it!

Nice looking bike. My wife and I were at the moto store a month or so ago and they had a 750 there that my wife sat on and of course she loved it. She thinks thats the bike she wants, it has a lower seat height than the new FZ6R does or at least the one she sat on at the shop.

Thanks:) One thing I liked compared to the R6 for instance was that I seemed to sit more on top of the R6 as opposed to "in" it, like on the 750. Much more comfortable for me=) How much riding experience does your wife have though?

Go for it man=) The extra power is quite nice as well :D If you're looking to stay in the 600cc range maybe check out the 09-10 Kawasaki ZX6R also.
