    Where are all the 2011/2012 FZ8 owners? Are you out there?

    Well all winter long i was debating whether to buy or not to buy a ""naked bike"" i decided to sell the first of my ninjas and i did, finally after that i went for it and bought the FZ8 2012 Anniversary edition. I love the colors and everything about this bike. I am in the process of breaking in the engine. How many owners of the FZ8 are out there?

    Cheers

    that's 1-sexy bike. If I were to cross over to nakeds, that would be the bike of choice for me too.

    I was torn over the winter with doing the same thing step out of a traditional SS and move into the naked. Keep us updated as to how you like the bike!

    I LOVE this bike, and I'm hoping to replace my naked SV650 with it, unless I decide I want a SS. It'll be more powerful than my SV with similar geometry, and the smoothness of an inline 4.....mmmmm...

    Did you get the Canadian edition one? I remember when they announced it, they said it would come in all Black or Blue with gold rims & Forks... the Blue one looked AMAZING, but now I can't see them anywhere for sale and the Black one is boring in comparison IMO. I think I'll wait until I can find the blue one....

    That's my dreambike! I'm definately going to be picking one up in the next 2 years or so...pending on insurance. I'm banking on that 25yr old bracket to give me a good rate. If i can get it under $1800, my next stop would be the Yamaha Dealership. =D

    I love naked bikes. The FZ8 is definitely on my short list.
    I was wanting to upgrade bikes this year, my wife thought that landscaping the front yard was more important. We had a discussion about it...blah, blah, blah....they're laying the sod on Thursday.

    Brutal after 5 years of saving my life plans have come together all in one year. Bought a new bike, wife bought a new bike, having a wedding and putting a 800sq addition on our house. Funny thing was my wife wanted to do some landscaping as well then I pointed out the fact the only time we would see it would be when we were pulling in and out of the driveway on the bikes and it would be a waste....she agreed...lol...You my friend need to get better at your negotiation skills.
