fazercol Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 after reading reviews and looking at pictures of peoples bikes on here and other forums ive decided on an xj6 diversion in black, i have an 05 fz6 fazer at the moment which i bought new, its on its second set of steering head bearings, ive heard about alot of fz6,s with similar problems of them wearing out quick. they are one their way out again and now ive had enough and although its a great bike and in seven years ive only done 28,000 miles on it, i feel its time for a change, i test rode an xj6 and loved it, very smooth riding and didnt seem that much slower than the fz. These days most of my riding is commuting to work apart from the odd ride out here and there, mayday run, trips down to my sister in plymouth, i think its going to be a perfect bike for this. cant wait to get it and run it in, yipppeeeee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wild foamy Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Welcome to the XJ club, the diversion wont be as fast as the pre-diversion that i have but pretty much they are the Astra of the bike world!, do a bit of maintanence on them and they will serve you well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fazercol Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 well, got the bike at last, only done 30 miles on it at the moment, running bikes in sucks but i love this bike i dont think its going to take any getting used to it, all ive done is adjust the bars forward a bit and adjusted the gear change up a bit and its a dream to ride. the amount of reviews ive read that said gearchanging was clunky, this one aint and its nowhere near as clunky as my old 05 fz6 was.
