I've actually thought about the FZ6 before. I can't remember why I crossed it off the list.

Because it's an I4? Don't remember what the seat height is, but I doubt that you'd enjoy the power delivery. Boring. It spins and spins and spins and finally wakes up.

The main thing I'm looking for in my next bike is comfort, which includes how well I can actually touch. Yet I don't want a torture rack. I've sat the R6's and the CBR's and the position is way too agressive for me and it's not comfortable for me. Weight is a semi issue. I prefer something who's weight will be close to the SV. I would prefer another V-Twin. I love the power delivery of the SV and wish for something similar. Until I'm a more competent rider, I prefer to stay with something that's similar to what I'm used to. Design/looks: I've always loved the naked and streetfighter look over fully faired bikes. Besides, I'm lazy and don't want to have to take more off than necessary just to change the oil. I break stuff almost everytime I work on my bike so I try to keep replacement parts cheap and to a minimum.

Give the Buell a fair shake. Go ride one. The dealer does demo's after all...and they give away free shit when you demo. Until the end of the month they are giving away a gear lock.

No local Buell dealership here and I'm not sure where the closest one is. I'll have to look...
