I currently own a KLR 650, riding for about 4 months, put about 7000 km on it. I chose this as a beginner bike due to its low power, low cost, cheap insurance.
I am not really into off road riding and am thinking about getting a streetbike next year. I thought the FZ 6 would be a good choice as it is practical, upright for better visibility in traffic, has good range, but seems to still be quick on twisty roads.
There seem to be some issues with fuel injection and throttle response, though, and I have read some reviews that indicate problems with smooth shifting.
Has anyone got any experience with this bike? I would be interested in any good or bad points. BTW, I would be using this bike for commuting and for weekend rides. I also plan to take some longer trips (Kootenays, for example).
Thanks for any opinions.
