I got this FZ6 as my first bike 2022, and at that point I thought I'd swap it out for a different bike within a year.

A pair of heated grips, a windshield, a top box, an upgraded seat, and more than 10000 km later I don't see myself getting rid of this anytime soon...

Got the same model a few years back, got more than 100 000 km on it so far, though 16 countries.
I have no plans to sell it.

Nice bike! I need to get myself a center stand too.

Sweet story! Can't wait to get my first bike, hopefully this summer

You won't regret it! :D

How do you have your saddlebags attached? They look filled to the brim and more sturdy/stable than just a throw over attachment.

[-] Deltaz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

They actually are a throw over attachment, attached to each other with two velcro straps and each bag attached with two straps to the bike. I usually fill them with clothes and other lightweight stuff, so they probably look heavier than they are.

When i had saddlebags on mine i had a pair of metal contraptions screwed to either side to prevent the bags from sagging onto the wheel.
