Made the top 10 baby :D

So following to this thread: http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-general-discussion/5689-won-motogp-tickets.html where I managed to get in the top 100 bikes picked by Yamaha, I received another email from a publisher at 2Wheel Tuner Magazine telling me I was picked as one of the top ten overall :cheer::cheer::Sport::Sport::cheer::cheer:


Check it out!!!

Thank you! :D

Yes, that was V2.0 :rockon: before I crashed it... they don`t know that though, so if I do ride up there, it`ll be V3.0 with the new headlight and bellypan... if they notice I`ll just tell them the story hehe

Keep your fingers crossed that I win that featured article!!!

Gratz! That pic was and still is the greatest of the bunch.
No wonder we're seeing more and more questions about naked fizzer now... Maybe Yamaha won't wait anymore for a US naked version.
We have a winner!!! :thumbup:

Thank you :)

I`ve been married since 2-5-07 legally, but because of a surprise baby due date, we had to cancel the original ceremony and move it out a year (logistics were difficult with familly coming from Europe and all), so I am used to the married life already :D so far so good! :thumbup:

lol they do mention FZ6 in the email, but I was laughing when I saw the trophy categories too... I guess they`re not used to picking FZ6s haha we`ll see what happens... to tell you the truth, just the fact to have been picked in the top 10 out of the hundreds of bike makes me happy... I don`t expect to win anything more :)

Congratulations David (great name,by the way...lol).

Your bike deserves to be there, and from all the sportsbikes I've seen in my life, my guess is that you'll take out #1. Great work getting there, and good luck making it to the track after the wedding.
Ride safe bro. (are you riding it there, or on the back of a truck???)

Good luck.

Dave. :thumbup:
