    Comfortability fz6/fz1

    My friend with the Ktm says I hav'nt learned to ride the 6 yet so why buy a 1. I feel I'm to heavy for the 6 though. Gotta admit I rode to Detroit yesterday and the 6 did'nt miss a beat. On the eway I maintained lane control and posture without a struggle. Averaged 90mph to and fro. I know...

    Comfortability fz6/fz1

    Ins n vibes. Oh I was informed by the significant other that my bike is paid just like the cars are, so it's like on a continuous basis so the extra $180. is or would be a lot less of an impact. I'm led to believe I pay around $480 or so, so probably less here in Michigan. I have a friend who...

I fell over once when I first bought it at practically a standstill because I thought I'd put the kickstand down and...

    I'm with you on the 1 headlights and do think the R1 exhaust would be just the ticket, especially if its the cans from the R1 that are retained. I think they are a strong focal point that would become a common upgrade objective 2nd gen or 1st. worldwide.

    Comfortability fz6/fz1

    Oh thanks for the quick answer. Here in Michigan we have great paved bike routes that sometimes require a little travel to get to, would you be more comfortable on the 6 or 1 for oh, a 6 hour ride. I have an 05 fz6 that is my 1st bike and I at age 53 just can't get enough time in the saddle...

    Curious is the fz6 more comfortable than the fz1, or vice versa. Seat height, peg distance or reach - further down in comparison or not, handlebar reach, long distance body fatigue. Knee aches, neck aches, back aches, arse ache know an aftermarket seat is a must. I'm 5' 9" 225 if I drink a...
