Hey guys! Heres my Bike!

[kargo]

I have been lurking these forums for a while now and learning a great deal about the FZ6. I decided on an FZ6 for my first bike, although it is not recommended. I have been riding for about 2 months now and I'm glad I did go with the FZ6, it has more power than I'll ever need but it also has a feeling of control that matches that power.

Heres some pics of it! I'm in the process of turning it into a street fighter but I'm taking it slow as I'm a poor student . I did shave the rear fender and have a TCP rear seat cowl on the way. I hope to have it finished by next summer.

Just thought I would introduce myself to the FZ6 community! :Sport:

Ok, I'll be the one to ask. What's with the sickle and hammer?

Haha, I come from a Russian family and its my way of honouring the sacrifices that many have made to defend the Soviet Union.

Welcome.

And I think it's cool that you're proud of and honor your heritage.

You look like a very happy and proud owner. Ride safe, post often.

Remember: the most important nut on your entire bike is the one holding the throttle!

There is just something about the concept of a naked sport bike that gets me so excited haha. I'm going to get clipons to give a more agressive riding style and am looking for some kind of "mean" looking multi headlight type ferring. Ill throw a scoop on the bottom and am considering the laser quad pipes.

Nice ride...She's a beaut....:thumbup:


ps...maybe before the headlight,scoop,and pipes you should consider frame sliders....but I'm sure you already knew that lurker...

Yeah, why not wait until you lay the bike down and destroy the fairings, and then decide it will be cheaper just to turn it into a streetfighter?

Seriously, some people just do it because they like the look better, not because it's a cheaper way to fix a damaged bike...
