Hi Guys. Im Dan, 49 years of age and married. I live just outside Melbourne Australia. I bought my FZ6R in February 2012 and am very pleased with it.
I moved to Australia from Scotland in 2008 as my wife was offered a job here. We both used to ride bikes years ago when we were young and before we had kids, but now since we have moved here we decided to get our australian bike licences as the weather here is perfect.
My wife has a Kawasaki GPX250 which is ideal for her being short on the legs, I had a Hyosung 250 cruiser but in Feb I traded it in for my FZ6R.
I work as a mechanic so have a fair knowledge of mechanicals which may be of use to the forum although it is mostly cars and light commercials I work on, but would be happy to give any input anyone needs on everything fro oils to servicing and modifications.
Loving the forum already.

New guy here.
Hello there!
I'm Dennis. I'm from Calgary, Alberta.
I just picked up an fz6r from a buddy as a wreck, Price was to good to pass up. Looking to tap into a knowledgeable resource while I plug at this poor thing and bring her back on the road.
Been riding for about 5 years now, most of them on a Virago. So this will be a new style of riding for me.
Always willing to learn and offer what help and little knowledge I know. So if you feel I can help... let me know.

Intriguing. What is the damage, and what needs to be done?
Edit: Before you answer here, in the New Member Thread, your answer should probably have it's own thread. Probably under Technical.

Just thought I'd introduce myself.
My names Chris. My Fiance just upgraded from a ninja 250 to an FZ6r. I ride an '06 cbr600 and am basically here to do a ton of reading and post where I can to help out. I tend to do my own maintenance so info is what I'm after!
Anyway, from reading it seems like there is a good group of people here. look forward to hanging around. :thumbup:

Hello Everyone,
I’m Levi and I just got my FZ6R a few weeks ago and I love it!!!! it was a 09 left-over and I got a GREAT DEAL on it. I have lived in Vermont my whole life and I love it here. I’m a big fan of anything with a motor in it and I have 3 racing wheelers the FZ6R, a Toyota Celica, and a lifted Chevy Silverado 1500. I’m in the Army National Guard and I’m a Aircraft Electrician (15F) I’m currently on orders working in Burlington so if anyone in the area wants to ride hit me up! I’m a sicko on my 4wheelers but I’m pretty new to this two wheels nonsense and so far I love it and am happy to be part of this community this really is a great site

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Steve, totally new to riding so forgive me ahead of time for my noobie ways. I don't even have my M1 license yet but have scheduled an MSF class in a couple of weeks, then plan on getting my license and then picking up a 6R to start my journey. I currently work as a Sr. Engineer at a tech company in Silicon Valley.
If anyone happens to hear of any 6R's for sale in the Bay Area please let me know as I'm actively looking for a used one right now.
Thanks for providing a great community and I hope to be able to contribute more in the future.
