Hi everyone,
I am a female Korean, adopted by a red-headed family and raised in Nebraska. So I guess you could say I'm a bit of an aberr-asian (sorry, couldn't resist). As there is nothing to do in Nebraska other than eat corn, ride and drink (preferably not all at the same time although I'm sure it's been done), I grew up riding on the back of a motorcycle and have always dreamed of riding my own bike since.
It began a few years ago with my first - a Ducati Monster 695. Wanting a sport tourer for longer distances, I transitioned over to the 2009 Yamaha fz6r. Long story short, the bike was sold after a break-up. In love with this bike, I attempted to repurchase it, but someone nabbed it before I could. And so after a rather long, extended hiatus, another finally crossed my path at the right price nearly two years later.
$3700 with a stand, I am once again the proud owner of a 2009 Yamaha fz6r with just over 600 miles on it. His name is Bummer. Yes, there is a reason for this. One word: Gravel.
So needless to say, I am still very much a newbie, having just accomplished my second solo ride in a parking garage, through downtown, the highway, and around the 660. My first full-on ride was a couple years ago on the Duc in the mountains of Mena, AK, although the bike was trailered up there.
I am always looking for new Yamaha fz6r acquaintances, particularly local riders/groups who can help me graduate from newbie status.
I look forward to meeting and talking with you all!

Welcome and congrats on getting another FZ6R. That's quite a story. Not sure if we have any members out your way, at least I don't remember any. I hope you can find someone that's close to you. I am in PA. Hope you get out to enjoy your bike soon and please don't be a stranger. This site is by far the best site for information on the 6R and just bikes in general.Hi everyone,

My name is Basil. I got a FZ6R last September but barely found this site. The first bike I learned on and owned was a 2003 kawasaki ninja zx-7r. I have a 2013 FZ6R. I look forward to learning from each of you and maybe helping out with any questions myself. Maybe even meet a couple of you that live in Arizona to go on rides with. Trying to currently teach my fiancé.
Hey hey!!! Welcome! I love this site. An absolutely great community that i've grown to love. So much help here. Im in Florence AZ, i know thats like what? 3 hours from you? But maybe we should dedicate a weekend to riding or something.
Welcome, the first bike I owned was a 1991 ZX7R too :thumbup
I wish I still had it too).knightmare
