Hi guys! Another newbie here. I took the MSF class 3 years ago and immediately got my license and decided I wanted an FZ6. I finally got my first bike ('05 blue FZ6) 3 weeks ago. (You don't want to rush into these things you know.) I'm hoping to pick up some tips around here. Thanks in advance.
Hey guys - I am loving my FZ6 - you can tell with all my new scratches :justkidding:
I replaced the front end sprocket with a 15th tooth one - makes the take off more powerful - top end speed didnt suffer too much but I can top it out at 153 mph now
I have been practicing my wheelies - getting better at it - I will have a video and pics soon (And no it wont be Photoshopped)
No wheelies for me!!!! I actually got my FZ in January.. but it was too cold to ride.. took it out a couple times in May then off to Laconia. The country roads in Conway NH are awesome to ride.. the cool mountain air. Anyway, just wanted to say hi, I wanna get back riding but the roads here are full of tourists and I don't like to ride too slow. My hubby is laid up from knee surgery so hopefully he will mend up fast. Take care!
Just purchased a red FZ6 today. Haven't gotten it yet, but I'm a little worried about the vibrations in the handle bars. Do you ladies have that problem. Just read about it on the reviews.
I wouldn't worry about all the reviews that you read. When you get out there and ride the bike you will probably pass it as being normal and it wont bother you. I dont know if the bike has any vibration when you ride...I have yet to purchase mine!! I did find when I bought the YBR 125 about 2 years ago that people had alot to give out about regarding handling of the machine but I didn't experience any of it. Just look forward to getting your bike and I'm sure any vibration in the handlebar wont affect your riding at all.
EDIT: I'm a guy!! Maybe I shouldn't have posted here...
Hey nice bike. I have a red 2006 and love it. My wife rides a new 2008 Moto Guzzi Nevada but likes riding mine once in a while. It is a little tall for her. She calls it Chili. Good luck
