Blue bikes are the best. Hehehe :)

Well, it's Team Yamaha Blue for a reason. :)

Welcome and congrats on tue new bike! :)
 
Peter here from Orr's Island Maine. This is kinda what I call my mid-life crisis bike! I justify a new Gold wing AND an FJR, but when I rode the FZ, I was gone. That kind of money I could get away with! It is my commuter bike in good weather, and I am just getting started on modification. It is my 6th Yamaha. I also own an 04 Roadstar which I fully customized.
 
Well, I should have interduced myself here first before creating new threads. I guess I was too excited about getting the bike.

My name is Taz and I am a new rider with Yamaha FZ6R blue being my first bike. I live in Pennsylvania and the weather is not allowing me to take the bike out for a spin. I am currently in process of getting all of safety gear. Some mods are also on the way. Thanks to many individuals here for some great info, advice, and recommendations. I can see myself becoming a mod addict again.

Hello

I just bought a 2009 FZ6R Raven last week and am so in love with this bike. i haven't rode a bike in like 15 years and just had an itch to get one. I have no license,(yet) Im 40yrs ole with noob skills since it has been like 15 years since coming off an old GPZ550.

Anywho, hello to all!
 
WOW a GPZ 550? Haven't heard that name for a long time. Back in the day I had a Yamaha RZ350 and tangled (street raced)with a rider in a GPZ.. oh those were the days,great times.
 
Hola

Been here for a month or 2 but never introduced myself. My name is Andre. I'm in Chapel Hill, NC. I'm 23 as of last october 5. Graduated from UNC in Dec of '09 (go heels!) with a BS in Information Science. Currently work on campus handling the desktop computer support for the Chemistry and Marine science depts. This is my first bike. 2010 TYB FZ6R. Got her March 1st of this year. Really appreciative of this forum and to everyone who has contributed. Look forward to "working" with all of you!
 
Hi All:

I am as new to this forum as I am to riding. I bought a 2009 FZ6R about a year ago, and I am a LOVING this little bit of heaven more and more with every ride.

I had never ridden a bike before. So, I am still working on upgrading my skills. I have heard about rides throughout mid-Michigan (where I live), but I am nervous about joining in. I don't know if I can keep up, and I highly doubt my skills are up to par. We shall see.

I hope everyone enjoys riding as much as I do.

Welcome to the forum! I moved to th 6R this year from cruisers, so it's somewhat a new experience to me as well. Absolutely no desire to do any knee-dragging, or even dog it that hard - I just love to ride, at any (sane) pace. I'm in the Brighton area, shoot me a pm if you want to join up for a ride.

:welcome:

Don't worry about keeping up. Just let the group know you're new and I'm sure they won't mind waiting for you or taking it a little easier. Just ride within your limits and be fine. You'll get there!

I agree with Chris on this one. You don't want to try to keep up. Let the group know, and they will ride at a slower pace for you. If they don't, then you don't want to ride with them. Welcome to the forum, I am sure that you will find tons of great info here.
 
Hi All:

My name is Rich. I currently live in burlington, VT. Just traded my 99 vulcan 750 for a 2009 with 2500 miles on it.

So happy, did not want to stop riding yesterday. Its really amazing how much better the ride is on the 6R than my old vulcan. Smooth is all I can say (accleration, braking, turning, etc).

Can't wait to get out and ride again. I used the vulcan mainly to commute back and forth to work. I can already see myself taking the LONG way home on this bike!!
 
New Aussie Member, Brissy Rider from Brisbane Australia

Hi all, My name is Damian and I am a 42 yo bloke from Brisbane in the state of Queensland, Australia.
I have just purchased my first bike in 12 years, a 2010 FZ6R in Raven Black / Bronze, to get me back into riding. I have missed it so much!!
I really look forward to being a part of this forum, and I hope to meet / ride with some of you as soon as the bike is purchased, are there many Brisbane people here?
Well dont be shy, come and say hi.
Ride safely all.
Cheers
Damo
