Ready to Buy!

Got a good trade amount for my Honda, on a new FZ6. I liked the FZ6R, but the FZ6 just had a little better feel to it. Anyway, There is one small problem.
I have a artificial right shoulder, and the slight foward lean seems to irritate it after riding awhile. If I could get the handle bars to fit like the V-Strom 650(maybe an inch up and back), it would be perfect. I love the FZ6! Any suggestions on the best risers? Thanks

My fellow FZ6 forum mates will probably banish me for saying this, but have you tried sitting on the Ninja 650 R? It's riding position might be a bit more comfortable for your shoulder and won't involve swapping any parts.

I am sure one of the techy guys here will be able to tell you what to adjust. FZ6 in IMO is the best ride. (till I get my hayabusa LOL)

there is a thing called bar risers...it will lift the bars and bring the back about an inch each direction. Do a search for "ber risers" on here and you will see some examples.

Here's just a few bits of information I found about risers by a quick search:

Hopefully it will help you find out more about risers.

Go with the FZ6, mate! I'm sure you can tweak out the bars to suit. Obviously we are all biased, but for good reason...:thumbup:

I think you will be happy with FZ6, they are great and forgiving.:thumbup:
