My friend who also rides and is a lady checked out my FZ6 and said it was sexy! She started telling other people that I have a sexy bike! :Flash:

I wonder, however, if this is really the FZ6 image.

I have had the same comment about my FZ6. Although I have to say that I truly can not vote in this poll. The FZ6 is pure irony encased into a machine. It is slick and sexy, yet practical. It is a smart choice for both the younger and veteran riders alike. Both sporty and hooligan. It is an ideal choice for the weekend rider, the commuter, the tourer, and the racer (Go Wolfman :D).

The FZ6 is a bike that exemplifies the true meaning of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
 
I agree with the above, and that's why I ride one. I guess the question is, what would the first impression be?
 
imho, the naked version (FZ6)is dead sexy and agressive, (as most modern naked bikes) the faired version though strikes me as a very boring commuter that traded all of its looks for wind protection, and i would denifinitely not call it sexy or sleek... but hey, thats just me personal taste:rolleyes:

I personally have to disagree with that for sleekness is all in the 'eye texture' of the bike. There is a Major reason why most people like the looks of a mazda miata

compared to a Scion xB.

Sharp, squared edges take away from the sleekness of a fine crafted machine.

Now, i am not bashing hooligan bikes or naked sport bikes. But as far as sexiness and sleekness goes, a naked bike does not seem to fit the description. But i have to agree with that they do look aggressive.

well. the mazda is sexy (though i think the miata is a very ugly roadsted compared to the rx7,rx8,mr2,s2000,nissanZ etc) because its LOW. as all the fully faired sportsbikes. i feel that the fared fazer is simply too tall, not to mention that it has a half fairing, and that for me looks like it has one foot there and one there...for me the fazer is
a bike thats not agressive enough (like fully naked bikes),
not sporty enough (like YZF models and other SS)
not rough enough (like the tenere, or some BMW's)
its just a beige jack of all trades. (in my point of view)


ow, and regarding the sharp edges of a vehicle taking away from the sleekness.. i beg to differ:

i voted for sexy because it very much is a sexy beast! but i was hoping for an option for All of the above! it is sexy, sporty, and practical all at the same time.
 
YES very sexy! I will be buying mine this weekend - just in the negotiation process. Although I am in love with the power behind the Triumph Speed Triple that I rode this week. 1050cc. Too bad my budget does not allow for that one. It is not as "sexy" as the FZ6 in fact the bug eyes are ugly. So please tell me your opinions on the FZ6. I just got rid of my 883 Sportster 2003.... Harley... VERY boring yet safe. I would love to hear about your experiences with the FZ6. Mine will be all black and 2008 - still in the crate. They will be putting it together today. BTW - I have owned a GS500F Suzuki - than bought a Kawasaki Z750R - (something like that) - than the Harley - :( I am not a Harley chick..... I have been riding since 4/2007. So here is what I want to know. I like quiet bikes that are fast and take off quick - :) Thanks for your input. May the sun shine in Seattle this weekend and all summer.....
 

Seriously???? You think this is a good looking bike?? A KTM!! :rof:

And as for your lamborghini reference...that was from the 80's or nineties man. The new ones are much sleeker, and much, much sexier:

Sorry, I'm not buying into that logic ;)
 
I don't think the Fizzer out of the box is sexy at all. However, with a few modification it can become very sexy.
Then again, with a few modifications it can end up looking very practical.... Or sporty.....
So, ummm.. :don'tknow:
I voted sexy, because that's how I see my bike.
 
I've gotten a few comments about the bike. My favorite is "I love what you've done with it", implying that I have removed the plastics to show off the bike. I just smile and say thanks.
 
i voted sexy. i find that pictures of this bike do not do it justice. it looks way better in person and its different. when i tell people i have a fz6, most have no idea what it is but they say it looks hot when they actually see it. its not full faired so they know its not a "race" bike but it holds its own in the looks department and when i tell them the motor is derived from the r6s it bumps the sexy factor.
