Hello all!
My name is Mike - everyone calls me Nutz. I have been riding motorcycles through the back roads of Kentucky for a few years now on a 1980 Honda CX500. It is my first and only motorcycle, and I am ready to move on to something that will spend more time on the road, and less in my shop!
So, I have been looking into purchasing a 2009 FZ6R, listed here. (Price listed in USD) I am actually planning on going to see it tomorrow, to see what I think of it in person!
I am looking for a motorcycle that would work well as a daily commuter (city/country), yet something that I can have tons of fun cutting through the twistys out in the hills. I will also be (FINALLY!) graduating from college in a few weeks, and want to travel; using a motorcycle to do it!
How well does the FZ6R work with what I am looking for? Also, has anyone else on here ridden an older motorcycle (or similar to the CX500), which could let me know what to expect when comparing the two?
I believe I have watched just about every review posted on Youtube, but I would like to actually talk to some owners!
Any and all information is appreciated!!
