i kinda feel out of place here. i bought mine as my first bike used and it has been dropped but all cosmetic damage. 11,988 miles and i paid $2000 cash for it. plus tax. a 2008 all black FZ6 runs like a f**king dream but just needs some plastic fixed. a couple of frame scratches and tires. but for 2 grand i couldn't pass it up. I really like this bike.
I had a choice of a brand new 2009 left over for $4500 or a black for $4999 ($5352 out the door.) from two different dealers. I went with the black since it was closer and the people seemed more reliable and willing to treat me like a customer. That being said I still saved over $2k.
I bought mine just over a year ago. It's a 08 had 1100 miles on it paid $5000. Had no idea they depreciate so quickly I probably should have looked around some more. At the time I was looking at a Gladius for 4800 and a Ninja 650 for 4600. The FZ just seemed more solid and better looking.
I just bought my FZ6 sunday. its a 2008 with 200 miles on it paid 4,000. felt it was a good deal. Black drove only twice because the owner was in the military.:rockon:
