I just picked up my first bike, the 2013 FZ8. I picked it up at Mission Motorsports in Irvine, CA and got a smoking deal after shopping for over 10 months and going to dozens of dealers in Los Angeles, Orange, and Riverside county areas.
My fiance (God bless her), followed my me home as I took the bike through local streets from Irvine to Pasadena area. I stalled it about 6 times but thankfully got home safe and sound--I rode it scooter speeds While this may not be an ideal first bike, I decided on this one because I felt the Honda CB500f was too small and would quickly out grow it.
Anyway...this bike is powerful for me but manageable. I love the look of this bike and really appreciate all of you FZ8 owners that have posted.
I need a lot practice before I really push this sweet machine--so any tips to a newbie like me is greatly appreciated!
