2005 Yamaha FZ6 Fazer review from United States of America
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing went wrong.
General comments?
The Yamaha FZ6 is the most perfect bike I have ever owned!
The best way I can describe it is this bike, is that it's so easy to ride it would make a beginner look like an expert riding it.
Handling is top; I can ride this bike above 100 mph and feel safe and secure, knowing I don't have to slow down for a hairpin curve, and knowing the brakes will stop me quickly.
This engine feels comfortable at 25 mph or at 145 mph. You don't have to over-rev the engine for normal highway speeds.
The seat and suspension is comfortable for long no-stop runs, and it sips gas (you can run it all day for 3 days without filling it up). I have been getting 63 miles per gallon.
This bike will out-perform any cruiser bike on the road.
