Those could have been 3800 grueling weekend twisties...
Nice... now why the *&^$%^# Can't I seem to be able to sell mine?!? :rant:After putting 6000KM on the FZ6R, I have sold my bike, the bike was gone last Saturday. It was a great beginner bike for me, I had lots of fun, but it's about time for power upgrade. I am looking for a 600cc super sport, maybe a 2008 GSXR 600 or a ZX6R. And I just wanted to say my good bye and thanks to everybody who helped me. Safe Riding everybody!
Congrats!lol, i will stick around for sure, i am just saying i won't have the bike anymore
Sending you a PM - I'm in the market...
thanks everybody
and thanks dart1963 for your advice, I am a mature rider, and I respect the power of a motorcycle, I know how bad it could end up if I ride like crazy. Even when I had my FZ6R, I treated it with my respect.thanks everybody
It was a great bike, it gave me a lot of riding exp. and confidence. Maybe the bike is too comfortable or something, it's lack of excitment for me after a while, thats why I decided to step up and try the super sport.
I will post some pictures of my new bike once I got it~ Most likely a 2008 GSXR 600 or 2006 ZX6R, we will see
11K miles ?!! damn...you have left me in the dust!
Really? insurance on my R1 cost about 20 bucks more a year than a R6
Was it the 2008 or the 2009 GSXR that they started doing that 3 riding mode thing. The dealer said that it can be set at 400cc and 500cc to made the ride a bit more tamed for new riders.After putting 6000KM on the FZ6R, I have sold my bike, the bike was gone last Saturday.

Well, lets see.. my FZ6R was going to cost me $975 with million dollar liability and full collision. My Buell is costing me $1375 for Million dollar liability and NO collision... HUGE difference in price.. but man, what a fun ride!My insurance on a 1000cc will cost me $720 more per year, not worth it
Yah, from MY2008 GSXR has 3 power settings, Race, Street and Rain mode. I am going to a Suzuki demo day next Sunday where I can test drive a 600, 750 and 1000, I am so excited!
Speaking from personal experience...last November I traded my '09 FZ6R for a new '08 GSXR 600. I find the riding position on the GSXR more comfortable, even on longer rides. The power output of the GSXR in "C" mode feels similar to the FZ6R. I only use C mode in wet or rainy conditions. In normal conditions, "A" mode is too fun to not stay in. In my opinion after having ridden both bikes the fun factor of the GSXR is much higher, but that's just me. The feel of the brakes on both bikes is similar. The GSXR seems to shift much smoother. There's a noticable weight and power difference. Under hard braking the front suspension does not bottom out or dive as much on the GSXR.After putting 6000KM on the FZ6R, I have sold my bike, the bike was gone last Saturday.
