Hello All,
I am in the market for a 2007+ FZ1 primarily for commuting and running errands around town, will not be doing long commutes or rides.
I use to own a 2002 cbr F4i and 2004 cbr 600rr both uncomfortable rides.
I went to the cruiser side after having kids and growing old, use to own a 2007 Honda Shadow spirit 750dc, not enough power so i sold that and picked up a 2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Custom.
I want to switch to a sport/touring bike i was leaning towards a SV 650 Naked or the FZ6 or Fz1, but like the center exhaust and fuel injection on the FZ since it is similar to my 600rr.
i am looking for a upright comfortable sports/naked looking bike i am 5 8 and around 210 lbs.
Questions for you.
1.) Will fz6 be enough power coming from a Vulcan 900 and my weight and height? or should i move to fz1. ( if i go to Fz1 is it as nimble and comfortable as fz6)?
2.) Besides few changes i was told 2006 to 2009 they are the same is that true?
3.) Will Fz6 or fz1 really the most comfortable sports/touring bike keeping in mind price range and looks.
thx for your help,
i also posted this info on fz6 forum and go alot of feedback, first i thought about getting fz6 but thinking fz6 wont be enough power, main concern is comfort.
