Good Points
Nothing Exceptional tbh pretty average bike
General Comments
The peaky engine of the Yamaha FZ6 has to be the worst thing about it! having to get the revs beyond 8k to find any power is completely wrong for this type of bike it really should have more torque so you end up using the gearbox way to often and thats not too slick either!
Build quailty very marginal
Clutch heavy for town work
Japanese reliability must be a myth! had lots of visits to the dealer until they finally changed the TPS!
Completely wrong engine for the type of bike put me of Jap in line fours for good!

If you thought it was so bad,why did you keep it for three years?

8k revs is a big deal for u? thats how u ride this bike! 10k and above and thats where the fun starts!
