Hello Everyone

Hi All

New to this forum and my first post.

Today I purchased brand new FZ6 2008. Amazing bike and really have plans to take it for longer rides this summer.

Looking for suggestions on the fender kit and best looking things to mod it.

thanks

thanks every one.

I sold my 2007 R6 to get this bike. Just to ride with my wife..

Hope this will be a good bike for 2 up riding.

WOW, I think you're the first one I read giving up an R6 for a FZ6, don't get me wrong the FZ6 is an awesome ride especially for 2up. There are several forum members that have done 2up with their wives or gf's. Some people consider "upgrading" to an R6 and not the opposite. I sure your wife will enjoy the ride better, especially on those longer trips.

R6 was uncomfortable for her?

I've been a passenger on the FZ for over 100 miles (non stop through twisties) and it was very comfortable.....no body parts got numb, no cramps!

Good luck!

Thanks Again

R6 is pain if you want to ride more than 30 mins in twisties. My wife is of equal hight as me. I am almost 6 and so is she and it was really not working out having her on the back. Also passanger holding OR pressing tank on breaking doesnt always work out as you have a risk of slipping the hand some times.

ALso if rider is leaning on the tank (tuck behind the wind screen) its very uncomfortable position. We gave ot more than one try but finaly gave up.


This weekend I will post some pictures of my ride and will tell you about the first 2 up ride as well.

Summer is nice here in WA.

Cool Man! Great Decision. On the FZ6 you save insurance and get a comfy ride with almost the same performance. Enjoi!
