When was Blue and White feminine? You wanna see feminine? I was looking real hard at this bike yesterday

But then I'd have to get a new jacket again LOL!

Yeah, that bike is being marketed pretty directly to women.  Seems to be working.  And that's good thing, I think.

BTW my jacket was baptized today! Got stuck in about two hours worth of rain  :2guns: It is not remotely water proof. But, I had my rain liner from my GXair in and that did fine!

Its a piece of garbage yamaha FZ6R ... and the reasn it is splattered in pink and marketed to women, is that they cant tell a steel POS frame from alumimum and the frame has so poor finish, they had to put wrinkle finish on it to not make it look like someone spit on it while welding.

Its working ... and they have been able to move this garbage in spades.

Cool.

I thought it was an FZR but in Canada it only comes in Blue, Yellow or black. 

So I take it that somebody is not a big fan of this bike? XD

Hey, now, not all women are myopic. ;)

Oddly enough, I've seen a lot of men on this travesty locally (but on the more 'manly' colored ones - you know, blue, yellow, black).

Yamaha isn't run by dumb folk.  They saw that Kawasaki could sell a POS wrapped in a pretty fairing for a chunk of change, and did the same with a bigger engine.

TBH the Gladius looked sooo much worse than FZ6R. Admittingly, I didn't sit down and comb over it. Why because I'm not in they buying realm. I still have a long time with Flick. If I was getting a bike I would check review after review for a couple of weeks. Check out the forums for that particular bike to see what people always seem to be fixing. See how long the technology has been around. Get an idea from CL etc on what the going price is and go from there. I'm not going to just walk into a dealer fall in love with the bike and take flick home. oops slip of the tongue there. I did see flick online did some reviews but when I got there his cute little bug antenna and his sad demeanor said "oh PUHLEASE take me home" then my friend named him flick and how can you not take something home after naming him!

My next bike will be a pink hayabusa! :bs:

Don't go trying to pin your misplaced aggression on me. ;)

Misplaced aggression my arse.  :thumb: You're not suckering me into to this. Nice try though.

FZ6R is wrapped in plastic. It is fuuuuuugllllllyyyyyyy under all that. And wrinkle finish WTF ...

The gladius actually is not 1/2 bad, I should admit suzuki can build a trellis frame with the best of them. Duc, aprilia, KTM - who ever ... zook is up there ... The gladius has a sheitteitty name and a buch of fugly and $$$$ plastic covers on the frame. The biggest gripe I got with the gladius is, they took the aluminum frame SV and put it in that steel frame.

Sorry suzuki, aluminum trellis is far far cooler than a steel trellis. That is it, no amount of ugly plastic covers gonna get you over that one.

And oh yea, I will now admit it ... I have an Sv1K and I would be licking it ... if it was remotely non toxic ... cadminum plated aluminum ... sorry not my flavor.

Cool.

I had a close up look at the FZ6R.  While it is not the bike I would choose, it did not look too bad - especially for the price.  I thought it offers decent value and a good variety of color and standard features for a $6000 bike.

For me....I am still aiming for my DUC 696 for next season unless something else is realeased for 2010 that catches my interest.
