Sounds like a bigger FZ6 is on the way? Seems like it would overlap with the FZ1 unless they were also going to release an FZ12 to compete with the new VFR, Multistrada 1200, etc.

it has potential, I dunno. might be planned to utilize the big bang crankshaft and then become the new 600 class.

I don't see what the point is. Are the FZ6/1 sales that high to warrant a third?

They sell very well in Europe, where it is being released.

You mean a fourth... They already have the FZ6 "R"

Still just three. For '10, the FZ6 is gone, leaving the FZ6R and FZ1. I didn't get it at the time, but it makes a bit more sense now...
