Hey Ian, welcome buddy, 8)
So as youve had both, how did you find the fz6 compared to the fzs6?
My theory is that the fz6 kicks fzs6's arse but only if you have it ready in a high rev position at takeoff ie when about to overtake a car, my old man has an fz6 & out on runs theres not much between them but the fz6 seems a little more nimble......however at higher speed roll ons in 4th or 5th gear i actually felt that my old fazer had some legs on the fz6 but im just not sure if that was down to me thrashing my bike as my dad typically likes to keep in high gears as soon as possible.
Also i think the old fazer will be comfiest but the fz6 probably has a better seating position for spirited riding.
& will the big mighty thou now be taking its place as your sole do it all bike or will you still keep a 6 ?

Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
