Hi Everyone,
First time rider (man I should have done this earlier!), and first time FZS600 owner.
I did all of my training and tests (completed direct access within the last month) on a FZS600, and loved it so much I decided to buy one. So far Im loving it, its everything I imagined it would be.
Myself and a couple of friends all got our licenses in preparation for a 3 day tour we did of Wales, we started down near Exeter and rode through the Brecon Beacons out to the coast and up to Snowdonia and back down again through the middle. That was one of the most incredible experiences of my life with amazing scenery and good times. Sure beat working! :lol
Unfortunately I didnt do that on my Fazer, we had rented bikes. My original plan to was to buy after the trip, but a mint condition Fazer became available just before the trip and I just had to have it, so I bought it and then took off for the trip. On the trip I rode a Kawasaki Versys 650.
I live in London, so planning on using this to commute to work a couple of days out of each week, rather than sitting on the tube. I tried this out last week and I think I saved about 15 minutes until I took a wrong turn and ended up going through the Blackwall tunnel, which after doubling back I think ate up any advantage I managed to create. On the way back there was quite a massive traffic jam, and filtering through that was a blast, although I took it quite slow since Im new to all of this - I had to get out of the way of a few more experienced riders a couple of times.
Looking forward to more riding in what ever is left of summer here (Im originally from Australia)!
