I am looking for a bike; I just learned how to ride. My son bought a 2007 ZX6R two months ago and has been riding it about twice a week. I want to have the comfort and extra seating of a nighthawk, but not the very short front end or skinny tires. I like the FZ6, and FZ6R. But, the FX6 has bit of a long front end (distance between the seat and headlamp). The FZ6R the same. I want something 500 to 650cc, that can comfortably take an additional rider for short distances, has sport width tires, a bit higher grips than a sport bike, but would not looks stupid getting low against the tank and also leaning in the corners. I am 6ft tall, 32 inch inseam, 178 pounds.
