Same thing is happening to me. I'm 57 and pretty crippled up anyway. The tight knee angle on the bike (compared to the VStrom or DR650) is the limiting factor on riding time. I use a Walmart car seat pad and the high setting. If I could lower the pegs an inch it would be just about right.
Givi racks for the US
Givi USA just told my dealer that its racks for the FZ6R will available in about one month. Of course, I'm not holding my breath. One month puts us into August and I understand Italy shuts down then. :D
