Title: Bye bye to the GS :(
Post by: Manix on July 15, 2004, 04:22:04 AM
Well, the sad day arrived when I had to part with my trusty GS for something bigger. I bought a 2003 Yamaha FZS600. It's practically brand new, previous owner only rode it for 6700km before switching to Yamaha Bulldog. Factory warranty is still in effect.

I test rode the new -04 FZ6S but to my surprise I didn't like it one bit. Seating stance was too upright, it felt like riding a motocross bike. Then when I got the opportunity to try out -03 Fazer, I was sold. It just fits like a glove.  8)

Dang, no more jokes on GSTwins about your band, versus the "screaming men", and who draws bigger crowds ;)

LOL  :lol:

It's a nice forum with topics covering motorcycles in general too so I guess I'll stick around here anyway. So you can still point and laugh. :P

Sweet bike. Too bad it's a Yamaha ;)

I love the sound of Yam motors.
