Hey Mr YAMMIE, you made such a great indestructible, versatile all rounder in the FZ6 and FZ6S that we don't upgrade our bikes much. We prefer to keep them and modify them.
Yeah, most of us even get to the stage where we have to have the valves adjusted. And, Mr YAMMIE, that is about the only money your dealers get from us after we buy our bikes.
The expectations we have of the FZ6 prior to purchase are exceeded when we have the bike. And that keeps going on.
So mate, you blew it!
You couldn't keep sales of the FZ6 and FZ6S up so you bought out those hybrid models. And... when that didn't increase sales you fell on your sword (so to speak) and listened to the marketers.
AND they said, yeah, stop making the FZ6 and FZ6S and make an 800 cc bike!! when we have sold a few of these, bring back the FZ6 and FZ6S in a couple of years.
AND you are WRONG. The FZ8 doesn't have an undertaile exhaust which is the main feature of the FZ6.
Listen to what my mates in this forum from all around the world have to say and remember this, the FZ6 and FZ6S was the right Price, was Positioned correctly in the market, attracted the right People and .... it was a fantastic Product.
