Bought my FZ6R a week ago and Im in love...

[Millhouse]

Hey guys, I just joined the forum and just recently picked up a used fz6r. Its a raven 09, and it had 249 miles on it when I bought it Bone stock. In the past week ive put almost 250 miles on it and all I can say is I LOVE this bike. It is everything I was hoping it would be. Comfortable, good mpg, good handling, good looking, and good power. I have 3qts of amsoil and a filter sitting in a bag waiting to go in this weekend if the weather gets nice enough to mess with it I look forward to learning on the site!

I felt the same way when I got mine.

I bought mine a month ago. A 2009 white with 1800 miles for dirt cheap. It had the 2 brothers exhaust and juice box and other stuff. I would have to agree with you. Love the bike.

My bike takes about 3.2q of oil every change (with filter change). Thought it was supposed to get 2.9 but 3.2 lines my level right in the center of the dipstick markings.
Anyone else experience this?

I believe you have to stand the bike up level to check the oil on our bikes. Do you check it level or on the kickstand?

Had mine 5 weeks now and was only able to ride her one week due to ankle sugery but i put 600 miles on her and did the first oil change all in the first week one of the nicest bikes ive rode just not the fastest

Jakeaz, in response to your sig, every state has something to do all year round. Some of us like living in places where we can do different stuff depending on the season. How much snowmobiling do you do in Arizona? Or snowboarding? See my point?

If you like doing the same things all the time, that's fine. But some of us like a little variety in our activities.

Sunrise Park has snow skiing/boarding. Fun place.

Theres also Snowbowl, Elk Ridge and some smaller places around.

We ski in Georgia too.

I am pretty certain Marthy is not skiing anywhere in FLA though. Except maybe water skiing.

Arizona has everything with in 6 hours of were i am Ocean is 6 hours snowboarding is 3 hours away, snow mobiling is 3 hours away, sand dunes are 4 hours away, lake is 15 minutes away its the best of all the worlds and i do alot of variety of everything i go snowboarding around 6 times a year, lake all summer long and sometimes in the winter, i got to the sand dunes about 6 times a year, quadding and dirtbiking all year round, hiking and camping all year round... All this without freezing my balls off or worrying about the rain and stuff etc

That's like saying "Where I live is great. I can travel for six hours and be somewhere different."

I'm in AZ and when you're in the military that's what matters, you don't get to live in the greatest places so the " closer " you are to things like that the better.

Everything ok there Nasty?

You seem a bit on edge about this Arizona thing.

Why are you carrying on about this anyway?

Someone down there owe you money? Run over your dog? Touch you inappropriately????
