2011 Yamaha's 2011's are out on Yamaha's website, and even a 2012 Super Tenere. Can't believe they went back to the 09 Black scheme, and no yellow or blue! :mad: The burnt orange is cool though. I see we get the FZ8! For only about 1K more than the 6R. It is only offered in 1 color? Raven...

Yep, hugger and chain guard all in one! The picture they show is for illustration purposes only.

Motorcycle Superstore. As of today, they again have both the black and carbon fiber IN STOCK.

He went -1 on the front and +2 on the back, either will increase acceleration. Doing both will really increase the get up and go, but drop the top speed. So does it take off like an R6 now? :)

Gee, knock the R1 TBR exhaust vid.... and then post a 9 sec. vid of your tach? Now that IS impressive. :cool:

Yeah, laptops are handy, except when it comes to audio. I've watched this on both a laptop and my desktop with 5.1. On the laptop you might as well be using an old transistor radio. :) This was the "after" vid with the TBR exhaust! No before though.

Discounts on AARP memberships?? lol Remember, age is relative... When you're over the hill, you pick up speed! :D

There are some advantages to being old(er)! :) In my (much) younger days we used to ride our bikes on the roads during winter using our feet for skis. That was back when the law didn't bother you with petty things. Don't think the 6R is as suited to that as the YZ250 though.:eek:

Yeah, had to have the gold wheels. They only had 1 2010 Raven, 7 of the 09's. Anybody ever fit these things with ski's?:D

OK, So I'm no kid (48) but new here. However, riding the FZ6R makes me feel like a kid again. Been riding dirt and motocross bikes since I was 12, finally decided to do battle with the cagers. The bike had to be a Yamaha, and the 6R was a natural choice. Even my brother who rides HD's was...
