Sadly, I've been out this year... but since I never went the FZ1 route, just hop in on occasion here... read full story here if you like... Mar 23, 2016 Deer vs. FZ6R - Yamaha FZ6R Forums - International FZ6R / XJ6 Motorcycle Community Forum can't stress enough... proper gear, gear and gear...

try hopping on the FZ6R forum... a few new members every other month or so, a few posts, then....... crickets

Rabbit got out of the business... was taking way too much of his time and a few rude customers, wasn't worth it. I haven't seen him on any of the forums for a while, he's been busy with the family

and they live for about 16-20 years... they just keep going... mine passed a year or two back, she was the same

lol, I heard you guys running, but didn't have cash on me (stopped by Roger Lyle's track day for a bit). How'd the race go? I'll have to remember cash with me next time they run there, could see some of it from the entrance, but would like to get in and stay for a bit.

if you google fz1 forum, this site is still number one (same for fz6r forum). the site maintained it's search ranking even with the domain name change. but yeah, someone might see the domain names and pick one with "fz" in it first.

Thank you! Didn't take the day off work, but did get to ride in! Nice weathers so far

I hop on every once in a while to see what going on, but, since I never did move to an FZ1, don't need much advice on the bike! lol. It's about the same on the 6R site though, seems to come in spurts and spittles...

I've considered a smaller bike for commuting... something about getting close to 90mpg just hard to beat.... as to fun... heck, I twist the crap out of my 6R, can run up through the gears without getting into jail speeds.... I demo day'd the R1... and never left 1st gear... what fun is that...

yeah... haters be hating! lol been on mine for over five years and I still get a grin every time I hop on her.... way overlooked bike imho Marthy just had access to an FZ07, said it was a great all around bike... think he's ridden most of the others as well (currently owns the FZ9)

That was my first thought, but, by the time I throw out my deductible, won't be much left to get out of it, most expensive thing I lost was the ps3, and it's only $250 new. Rest were $40-50 gadgets. Just pulled that socket, wires behind good, so it literally just blew the extension cord out...

So, my bike was... was plugged in here on the tender.... luckily she fired right up.... don't know if the tender survived or not... extension cable that was plugged in blew out. managed to come into my cable modem and fry everything connected to my lan... cable modem, bluerays, ps3, cable...

yes, most who hop on here and say they don't want to hear "slow down/body position", really need to hear that... but, as others said, check suspension setup first (especially if it's scrapping at slow speeds). There are also foot pegs that offer some adjustment without rearsets... MFW Vario...

holding my tongue...

yep, same here, never thought to look for this... at 60K+ miles... I'm going to check mine out. thanks!
