I have to say, the more I ride my bike the more I love it. Took it up through Ripton Gap (Rt 125) & Moss Glen Falls (Rt 100). Was going to do the App Gap, but was riding with a new rider on a new bike with new tires so we skipped that. I kept noticing my boot sticking to the left peg. I knew it was gum :mad: Drove me freaking crazy til our next pit stop.

Met some Canadien riders who came down to Vermont from Montreal all riding Yamaha VMAXs. Beautiful bikes. They really liked my yellow FZ6R. :steve:
Asked a lot of questions about it. We swapped stories and favorite rides & I gave a used snowmobile parts place in Newport to the man restoring his Uncles vintage 77 Yamaha sled. He was stoked for the lead.

Of all the bikes I have ridden, this bike gets the most compliments ever. I am not just saying that. How about others experience?

I've had grizzled ol Harley riders say that our's is the nicest sport bike design they have ever seen :D - she gets a lot of looks every where we go and a lot of folks come up for a closer look and say that they really like the look of the bike.... the miship exaust garners alot of attention! Especially when I start the bike for them and let them hear her growl!
 
I have about 300 miles on mine as of Sunday. Went out with a friend on Thursday morning and we swapped bikes. He has a 2006 FJR and a Suzuki Katana 600. He was riding the Kat...I let him ride the 6R for about a half an hour. He didn't want to give it back LOL. He asked about saddle bags and top box for the 6R and said he was seriously considering selling both of his bikes to get a 6R. I thought that was cool! I love this bike, it is so easy to ride and very comfortable.
