Recently sold the 2001 R6 for a ‘15 FZ-09. This thing is a riot and never ceases to put a smile on my face! Very happy with this upgrade.

I had an FZ6 a few years ago and loved they style . I’ve casually looked at the FZ-07 & 09, but was always thrown off by the 3 cylinder. How are you liking the sound?

Not gonna lie, it’s no screaming 600cc 4cyl.  It kind of drones on at cruising speed, but it does sound good going up to the 11k redline.  It’s a different sound, but I do like it.  Mine has the M4 slip on, my friend has one with the full Akro exhaust.  Both sound similar, his sounds a bit better.

As am I.  The blue wheels with the matte silver paint looks killer.
