I am looking to get new bars for my bike, heard lots about the FZ1 bars but I spotted a FZ6R and I am wondering if those bars fit on the FZ6, if so is anyone running them ?

Yes, I like them. There just was a large thread about this very same subject, try the search function to look for it:thumbup:

Had I not had the FZ1 bars on mine when I bought it (which I love BTW), I may have gone with FZ6R bars after reading some of the comments about it.

Here are a few threads to look through...

The "r" bars are okay and I'm trying to like them, but I do like the fz1 bar more.
The fz1 bar has more of a sporty feel to them; a little more control feeling.
Not a bad choice with either tho :thumbup:

I am going with the FZ6R bar, dealer here let me take one out for a ride, I know it isn't the same stance but it felt pretty good on my hands. Who knows there may be a FZ6R bar up for sale if i don't like it, it was only 45 dollars so not like i have a ton of money invested.

Thanks.
