A 1978 kawasaki KZ650, this bike still runs very well. Like the FZ6 this bike has an inline 4 cylinder engine, except it is not fuel injected!

my 06 fz6 is my first bike, I know I wasn't the best choice, but I think it worked for me and has worked for others

For all its faults, I could put more miles on it in one day than I can the fizzer. It was so damned comfortable. Wasn't thrilled about a 105 mile range on the gas tank at 80, but it did what it was told without complaining.

1984 Honda Nighthawk 750S (Canada) - had ~ 27,000kms on it when I got it, and I wrecked it at 41,000km. I purchased this bike in ride-able condition for a scuba diving knife, and a set of scuba dive planning tables (~$60 Cdn). To this day, I have never gotten a better deal on anything!

I got into the whole Motorbike thing late in life

My previous bike had 3 wheels 2005 Catrike Road. I still have it hanging from the ceiling of the garage. It hasn't turned a wheel since I brought the FZ6 home !!

First had an '09 Kawasaki KLX250s (bought with 250 miles and 2 bros slip on, $3000)
This is my last bike '91 Kawasaki Ninja 500, after it's front end rebuild/new paint. A car came into my lane through a left curve, stood the bike up to miss the car and had to put it down. Afterwards had a custom made 2 to 1 header and Yoshi slip on and re-jet.

My last bike was a 2003 R6 that I rebuilt as it was a theft recovery and was missing half the parts. Had a total of $2700 the way it sits in the pictures. I guy in a pickup truck hit me from the rear going 65mph while I was going 25mph (the speed limit) and there was not much left of it. I came out with just a couple scratches thanks to my gear.

FJR 1300. Was great for 2 up with wife. She did not want to ride any more and sold the bike. The FZ6 is light and flickable and will be fun with just me.:rockon:
