Fz6 S2 V's 04 to 06 Fz6
« on: 07 September 2015, 06:20:14 pm »
I know this a boring and probably well over spoken about topic, and the S2 would maybe seem a better option.
The prices for used S2's in my Country are Way over priced!! 07, thats 8 years ago, anyway, for the guys who know,
I have seen some 05 FZ6's at good prices, Q, Is the frame that much stiffer on the S2 and fork upgrade much better? and lastly the fuel injection upgrade. If I had the money I'd buy an S2 tomorrow but they are going for like 4.500 euros... In Ireland.. I know FZ6's keep their price, reason I'm asking is im 16 stone and could never get the forks right on my 2 FZS 6 bikes.


Over time I would ohlin the front springs and ohlin back shock,
One last Q is 42.000 Miles not Km a lot for an 07 S2?


I appreciate any feedback : )

The later FZ6s have more power so should be a "better" bike, I've had my 05 (reg. 06) from new, done over 44,000 miles on it, At one point I was over 17 stones down to 14 now, It still  had 139 on the clock last week, on a private road of course, and if it had been a bit longer I think it would have gone faster? the suspension can reach its limit but it all adds to the fun on the back lanes, lol. I was offered around £1000 for mine but dealers don't want old bikes with high milage think I would get upto £1500 private? or am I dreaming?
