Welcome!

Congrats!

I've got an XJ6 as well, it's my first bike. I never drove anything before, so the motorcycle world was really new to me. It's a bike I really love, perfect for newbies like me. It also has a nice design =)

Pinky! I've got an XJ6 as well, and I really like the new Viper Blue color!

:welcome:

Yeah it's awful to park there! Now for the cars it's even worse I mostly go to "Le Sillon", and I like the small beaches between St Malo and Cancale (dont know if you know this town). I love the view from there; it's totally different in the south! Thanks I love to speak English, and I do everything to improve it. I'm sure I'll enjoy it here!

Thanks, I try to do my best

Thanks ) I mostly go to Saint Malo in the summer, I like it there, and the coast nearby. With a car it's really really hard to park when you wanna go in the fortified city. But with my bike, that'll be a piece of cake

Yeah, Brittany is beautiful, especially the far west and the coast. As for the south, I don't like the sea there. There's no waves! Even though I don't swim, for me, a "real" sea has waves, otherwise it's so boring I've never been to Orange, but I might go visit Cannes/Monaco... and with a bike, it's pretty convenient with all the turists there will be!

Thanks I don't have a lot of experience right now, since I don't drive everyday. I only use my bike when I wanna go somewhere and I know I don't need to carry anything. I've done maybe 400km with it, and most of the time, I have a passenger. And since I only lived in the south for a few years, I don't know the roads either! But this summer, I might go back to my hometown, in Brittany, with my bike. I know the roads there so it'll be fun. I'll be an hour from the coast, which will be so cool ^^

Hi all! I'm a newbie from the south of France, so pardon my English I bought my first bike, a Yamaha XJ6 ( Extreme Yellow) since October, but I got my driving license a month and a half ago, so she waited for me in the garage! I learned to drive on a Kawasaki ER6, and I really didn't like it. It wasn't the kind of bike I wanted to drive, nor the one that caught my eye. During my driving lessons, I had the chance to drive for 2 hours a XJ6 and I fell in love with it. When I searched for a second-hand XJ6, I found out it existed in yellow... and it was love at first sight! I needed an Extreme Yellow, and not another color! Around here, there wasn't a lot of them sadly, so my choice was a bit reduced, but I found one with a reasonable mileage, and a Bagster saddle like I wanted. Since then, I did a lot of modifications on it (and had people do them since I suck in mechanics :/) and it's almost like I want it to be. I still have a few modifications to do, but the biggest ones are done already. I'm a member of the French forum for the XJ6, but I like to meet people from around he world, so I registered here. Cheers to you all!
