Hi all,
Picked up a new-to-me 2005 FZ6 a few weeks ago. Finally got some pictures taken. The original owner bought it new in 2006 and since had only put 1200 miles on it. I managed to add about 450 to that since I've got it. This is including a 120 mile each way weekend trip.
So far I'm impressed. I'm coming from a 1990 Kawasaki Zephyr 550. I just have a few tasks in mind. First I'd like to do the dual headlight mod so I can stop having everyone tell me I have a headlight out. Then I'm thinking I want to change over to the FZ1 bars. I have a handlebar riser that came with it so I'm not sure exactly how it will work, but I do know I need to make them wider and more straight. And finally I'd like to get a more comfortable seat. I'm going to wait on that on until I decide if I will be taking more long trips.
So here are the pics... it came with Yamaha Nylon saddle bags, handlebar riser, taller windshield (with original included), and a battery tender. I paid $3600 for everything.
And this is my old bike...
