Hi all,
I've been lurking around this forum as I am seriously considering the FZ6r for my next bike. However, being a middle-aged, sort-of-newbie (1.5 years riding exp.) rider, I am leaving the door open for a Versys and much recently a Truimph Bonneville (although, some articles that I've read talk about leakage in the "old" bonnes, which supposedly have been addressed by Truimph).
Currently I have a Suzuki TU 250x which I enjoy very much using as a commuter. This bike happens to look like a smaller version of the T-bonne. Great on local and state hi-ways, even on interstates. My only complaint is when I get to the uphill slopes on I-287, it loses steam. For this reason, I am 99% of the time on the right lane.
I love the Yami 6R based on the reviews, hearing about the smoothness and the "power-when-you-need-it" aspect of the bike. At my age (52), I do not intend to burn rubber anymore... 80 to 85 mph max is fine with me. And I know this bike's top speed way exceeds that.
So, to end my rambling, feedback for riders in my age group (upper 40s and beyond and even the youngens too) is GREATLY APPRECIATED
