[LollyPoP]

i'm back...

got mine tis noon. =)

 

a little warning, do not place yr cleaning cloth in between the speedo & wind screen. IT WILL FLY OFF....

mine flew off @ 2nd link -.-

 

e riding posture was rather comfortable,

but the stock grips SUX...

mayb my leg was too long, keep touching the main frame & yes it's hot!

the wind screen doesn't offer much, too small liao.

Hey lollypop,

 

Hows the suspension for the new fz6, and is the bike really very high-revving?

[DM]

@ fazermurpies: sad to say, first day i got my bike, had to ride home in the rain

thanks for the advice on getting this bike though, i luv it !

 

hey lollypop, let's see some pics lei

 

@ zero_degrees: i just started running in today and the power at low revs feels like my cbr400 i do notice a difference in moving off though, the response is snappier and it pulls smoothly but then again, that could be the pros of efi compared to a carbureted machine. suspension is soft (hardly noticed any bumps whereelse i would have gotten crotch punishment with the cbr on the route i took home just now)

 

overall, the bike looks daaamnd fine

the exhaust note is kinda soft when the engine is cold but it gets a little louder and adopts a deeper tone after warming up. it's much softer compared to the 06 r6 though.

 

i'm still learning on thie bike so please forgive me if my opinions are biased.

 

regarding the hot engine frame, lolly was right, i took many small roads to wear in the transmission and after about 10 mins of riding (with engine temp at 87-100), i could feel 2 hot patches on the inside of my knees. still tolerable though, could have been avoided if i took the eway home.

 

i took a pic at shell but it isn't very clear. will post more pics after i wash it tomorrow night, no thanks to the weather :/

Congrat u and lollypop for getting their new machine..

[LollyPoP]

maybe you could try riding with different gears more often, take small roads instead of the eway where u maintain speed with the 6th gear. that's what i do besides keeping the bike in gear even when i stop. after running in, all these would not be necessary of course, normal riding can resume. then again, this is the advice i get from experienced riders and i think it makes sense. if anyone has a different way of running in, could you please share it with us too?

 

about the desaru trip, i can't make it due to shift work and gf commitment

 

 

@lollypop: wah your bike no. very swee

[Murpies]

wellcome to the fazer family , Nice bike :cheer: do keep us update of the performance of your fazer, as i did the hard running in too. engine pull in better feel in the top end as i compare with another biker who did the normal running in.

[LollyPoP]

nvm there's always another trip

mi also no join them for this trip becos of exams

[zero_degrees]

Kool bros, do keep the news about this nice bike coming in...

 

Just a question maybe the more experienced riders can advise me...

 

I'm a rider who don't go very fast on the road, even if on the NSHW, therefore my friends recommend me to get bike that has strong low end to mid end power, and not a bike that is weak on the low end, but powerful on the high side...I really like the new Fz6 with its nice new look and a cheaper cost, but i'm not sure if the Fz6 would fulfil my needs, or would its big brother the Fz1 suit me more...hmmm

 

Bros, please gives some views & advises on this, thanks...
