    Been dailying my fz6r now for about 6 months. It was my first street bike and have had it for about a year and 3 months now. One thing i can say is that its reliable. No issues whatsoever. Im just getting ready to change the sprockets and chain and just changed the tires aftter 14000 miles. Have only done one oil change and ya getting ready to do the 2nd hear when i do the chain and sprockets. Its one of those bikes that you can leave out and not worry about someone stealing because its so heavy but still fun enough to get your thrills on the interstates. I barely road the bike for the first 9 months but i sold my new truck last november and have started her up everyday for nearly 6 months and its been a blessing having reliable transportation for work. The only problem is that any fast car out there can easily keep up with this bike. Theres no way to gap a car on this bike unless you have the ability to weave and maneuver through traffic. Same with riding with friends on their sport bikes. Its just not a fast bike. Its still fun and great bike to learn how to ride and get used to the wind and traffic of riding but if your anything like me you will always have that desire for a real sport bike. That being said this is a special bike and anyone whos not a rider will think you have the coolest sport bike ever.

    Absolutely love this bike. Rode this from PA to ME. PA to GA and it was sooo comfortable. Plenty of power and torque. Add the road 6 tires and twisties are alot more fun. However, the top end stock is 125mph. With a flash and tune about 140mph. It is basically a detuned R6. Perfect commuter, street, distance, all around best bike with room to grow.

      The CBR650f is a tad bit faster than the FZ, it’s nothing to make a big deal about at all, I’ve ridden both of them. They’re both awesome bikes but the FZ is definitely more comfortable and smoother than the CBR.
