    hi gunny also picking up my brand new FZ1 on friday - did a straight swap with my 09 zx10r - which I did 4000 miles on but my 51yrold wrists, knees and hips could not take the pain anymore - took the FZ out for a long test ride on a mix of roads - what a blast - so much fun - superb power delivery - great handling - lovely noise - was considering having a fancy can put on it but I want to keep the exup and it sounded great anyway - I went for the non abs in black + tail tidy, r&G protectors and a powerbronze screen. The only thing I might further add is some sort of foam or gel insert in the seat as I did get a little bit of a numb bum after a while - still a lot more comfortable than a full on sportsbike though -keep me posted about how you get on with yours and any bits and pieces you might recommend

    have an 08 r6 in competition white - although all the colour schemes are good. I also had a 56 reg r6 - this one with the variable intake trumpets does have a little more midrange - and also has a better feeling to the handling - I think it is a fantastic bike. It needs to be thrashed to get the best out of it, but apart from a little wrist ache it can still be bimbled around on when you have to. I think the build quality of these new yams is at least equal to Honda now + longer service intervals and lower servicing costs in general - I can ride it for 2 to 3 hours at a time and found it fine for a week in France + one of the best looking and sounding bikes on the market - dont bother with after market can, but tail tidy and official db screen a must
