New to FZ6 and just in time!

[wely324]

I am new to the forum and have been looking to get either a fz6 or fz6r. I finally made the decision to go with the fz6, mainly cause it felt more comfortable to me (i'm 6' tall), the larger 180 rear tire vs. the 160 on the r, the dual exhaust, and all the upgrades available for this bike. Plus it looks awesome.

So i went to my local dealer and they had 2 instock in both blue and black. He also informed me that there is no 2010 fz6 and what is left in stock is all they had. Since I wont be able to get it for a few more weeks he said he would hold it for me. I decided on going with black

Anyways thanks to this forum it helped make my decision on what bike to get very easy:thumbup:

Can't wait to ride it and post some pics as ill definitely be modding it

Thanks again

Welcome to the niche. This bike is such a step up over the fz6r. You probably know that by the price too.

I have the same story. I've been debating about what bike to buy for a long time and had my eye on the FZ6. I found out that the local dealers had all new FZ6R's in stock and had to search a little to find one. I pick mine up tomorrow in blue. Can't wait to start it up!

FZ6 S2 seem to be better in every aspect than a FZ6R,but a peaky engine like FZ6 is better suit on a highway or race track.How many times you see 8k rpm on your tachometer during street riding.

well not on my way to work, but when touring through the mountains pretty often lol

Welcome, and a good choice, black ones are the best looking bikes out there

Only thing I can say to this is ALOT. LOL I like to ride 1st hard and second, get to around the speed limit and ease her off into 3rd then 4th. Seems like at every red light I see the other cars far behind me in a matter of seconds. Oh well atleast I don't break the speed limit for very long or far.

Sorry to burst your bubble but its obvious the RED is the WAY BETTER LOOKING ONE. :Flip:

Ahh but the Black one's are 3mph faster.Fact

 

[Rob2222]

Yeah, almost as fast as the blue ones.

 

[segue00]

What shade of blue?

It may be better looking, but BLACK is faster

 

[krid80]

I hope that 3mph keeps you company at night. We all know that nothing is sexier than red! FACT!

I too faced the same dilemma. The FZ6 fits my body much better and is FAR more comfortable. (Mine is black as well) I love this bike! Good luck.
