Re: Another FZ6R Owner
welcome to the site!
welcome to the site!
Sounds like there really is some of that bewitching Fizzer soul in the R after allwell the rain let up enough for me to get a decent hour long ride in. after which i must profess that i LOVE this bike. i think this very well may become a long time habit. =D
YESSSSSSS!!!!! 600cc sewing machine!!! Actually, I am impressed how a completely different muffler design sounds exactly the same as a FZ6S. I work at a Yamaha dealership and we have had our FZ6R on the showroom floor for about 3 weeks and it has had a pretty decent response. Oh... and that video is pretty accurate. That's how they sound in person.I was thinking about that too, maybe a thermal layer first...lol
Anyway I thought you guys would appreciate this video...
Not the greatest, but pretty much the only vid on youtube right now other than the promo videos
YouTube - 2009 Yamaha FZ6R Startup
Video is still being "processed" I think so be patient if it doesn't work at first, just click on it
As you can hear (hopefully), the exhaust is quiet but has a nice deep tone.
So I went to Lowe's today, and for $1.85 built myself a pretty decent camera mount. Just a 1" conduit hanger, some 1" tubing, a 1/4" x 2" bolt and nuts.
This was the result:
