With the ever-growing number of forum members moving on from the FZ6R, this thread seems like a good idea. (I can't take credit, Fizzer6R suggested it in a post.) So, for the members who had a 6R and are now on something else:
What is your post-6R ride?
How is it different than your 6R?
What is similar to your 6R?
How long did you have your 6R?
What made you decide to switch bikes?
Do you miss your 6R?
How about a picture of your new ride?
I'll play first. I have an FZ1N now. It's different in that it has about twice(!) the power of my 6R. It also has a stiffer frame, better suspension with more adjustability, and some other upgraded features. It's similar in ergonomics and had the same easy feel to ride around. Is not a high-strung SS; it's an easy bike to hop on and fart around town when you're not in to breaking the land speed record. I had my 6R for two seasons and 21,000km, and I decided to move on because the plan for the 6R was always to use it to get used to riding a full sized street bike before I got something more serious. I really do miss my 6R. I saw a photo of it this morning and it was like seeing a photo of an old friend who moved away. If I was more flush I would have kept the 6R to boot around now and then and use as a "buddy bike." Here's a photo of my new baby, and one of my 6R or old times' sake.
