Hello everybody,

My name is Jaime and I purchased my first motorcycle about three weeks ago after spontaneously taking the MSF course. I originally had intended on getting a harley, but everyone kept saying to get a beater sport bike first to learn on. I then decided that would be a good idea, so I intended on getting a used ninja 500. I looked at one and then decided to open my budget up slightly and found a good deal on an 05 FZ6 in faster blue with 14k miles. Asking price was $2800 and I got him down to $2500 which included a sweet motorcycle backpack and gloves.

So far I have ridden her about 300 miles and is my new daily commuter to work and back. I thought the 600cc motor would be a bit too much for a beginner but I have no regrets.

I have already added a sequential led tail light for safety and am looking forward to doing an oil change this coming weekend.

Hi everyone,

I got my first FZ6 three weeks ago, it's a 2006 FZ6N with 8500km on it. So far all I've done to it is fit a fender eliminator.

I live in Sydney, but the bike was bought from Brisbane and ridden here by my room mate (7500km in 7 years, then 1000km in one day haha!).

Unfortunately, as I am still on my P-plates, I still have another week before I am licensed to ride it!. The last 3 weeks have been torturous, but I'm looking forward to next weekend!

cheers,
Chris

EDIT: Currently I'm riding a Honda Spada until I get off my plates.

Hi everyone,
I've been lurking here for a couple of days as I'm looking to buy an FZ6.
This forum has been of great help in getting to know this great machine a little better, I might just close a deal this week.
Right know I ride an old Bonnie that I've turned into a reliable daily rider. The FZ6 will probably take its place as I plan to make longer rides.
Thanks!

This is her:

I'd love to have an old Bonny like that for around town.:rockon:

Hello!

Just upgraded from my EX500 to a 2004 FZ6. Bought it with a bunch of mods, but the same mods that I would make anyway. Did a bunch of research, and sat on a lot of bikes- the FZ6 is the only bike I sat on that made me think it was really an upgrade, and that it would do everything that my EX did but better.

Anyway...

Kevin. Live a little south of Tacoma, WA.

Thanks for the welcomes guys. Yeah I always wear all my gear. It turns out I'm going to have a really busy day at work this Friday, so won't be able to get to the motor registry to upgrade my license . no weekend rides for me.
