What would y’all pay for this FZ6 s2?

Initially thought I wanted an FZ6R but now leaning towards a FZ6 after further research and advice. This one seems to be taken care of properly and has 14,000 miles and current tags. The downside is it had been tipped over while stopped, owner says he thought kickstand was down (frame sliders took the damage, which seems minimal)

There is also a dent on the tank from a previous owner with no damage to paint, current owner didn’t seem to know how it happened.

Should I consider this bike? I was thinking if I could get him down under $3k it might be worth it. Maintenance has been kept up and it’s been used regularly and not been sitting.

Looking at getting a FZ6R as my first bike. Does this one seem worth checking out?

I’m a 31 year old 6 foot rider with a small amount of experience. (Also did a training course and got my endorsement)

I’m trying to source an FZ6 or FZ6R and found this one, seems like a good price based on my knowledge. What do you think?

Let me know if there’s anything I should look out for or questions to ask
Thanks for any help

Do y’all think this is worth checking out? $5k seems a bit steep to me even if low miles

Im looking to get as my first bike. Im a 31 year old 6 ft rider with a small amount of experience. (Did training course and got endorsement also)

Wondering if I should consider this as I’ve been searching for a GSX650f and this one is within 15 minutes of me. Anything I should inspect specifically or questions I should ask?
Thanks for any help

What do ya know about camping in a Wrx?

Camping at a lake off the Oregon Coast. It is so doable in this car, especially with extra storage on the roof

Passed my MSF course over the weekend!

I did my training course on this KTM Duke 200cc. I have little to no experience on motorcycles but am very familiar with manual transmissions. It was nice to get some practice with a sportier bike. The biggest challenge I experienced was slow speed maneuvers.

I’m currently trying to narrow down what bike to purchase for myself. I’m a 31 yo male, 6 ft, 185lbs. I definitely like the sport bikes primarily but feel I could also enjoy a naked bike. Currently considering these so far
-Kawasaki Ninja 650
-Suzuki SV650
-Yamaha MT-07

Are these an ok power level for a beginner? I plan to ride mostly on my commutes to work, which is about 15 miles each way of mostly highway riding. I’m open to your opinions, just trying to get a better idea before I decide. Thanks in advance!

My Mom is finally at peace

This is a bittersweet post. Earlier this month my Mom (Lori) passed away after a 15 year long battle with Parkinson’s disease on June 13th 2026, 3 days shy of her 67th birthday.

She had been on hospice just over a month and I’m so thankful for the hospice care at the end, it was very intentional/calculated care.

On top of Parkinson’s she also fought and beat breast cancer, and 2 separate forms of skin cancer in that same timeframe. She was a true warrior and my hero. She fought to be with her loved ones till the very end. My family and I feel she was holding on for us, a very selfless act.

This disease was cruel. It was so hard for her and our family to watch her slow decline over the years. She kept up with exercise and functional activities as long as she could but it was no match for the progression of the disease after enough time had passed. We never let her go to a nursing home, she spent her final years in her own home with my Dad being her primary caregiver and my siblings and I secondary caregivers. I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

We will miss her greatly, but it was her time. My heart feels for all of you dealing with this hellacious disease. Keep pushing forward as best as you can and cherish every moment you have with your loved ones ❤️

05’ Nissan Altima 3.5L engine light issues

I’ve been fighting issues on this Altima for months and finally have it narrowed down to just these codes. Anyone dealt with these before? Fixing this car has been like looking for a needle in the haystack. I have spend a lot of money and time and am hesitant to buy an o2 sensor when I don’t know if it will be the fix

30yo male, Mom is beginning hospice and has fought Parkinson’s 15 years

Decided to post here since this new change with my Mom. It’s been really tough on my family and I. I’m sure some of you can relate a lot. 2 years ago she came very close to the end during a hospital stay but surprisingly bounced back a bit and has since been requiring 24/7 care which my dad is the primary caregiver for her. It’s taken such a toll on everyone and the switch to hospice hasn’t provided any timeline for us but is more to make my Mom as comfortable as possible, which is my biggest wish for her. I believe she has continued to fight and push through this shitty disease for her kids (3 of us, I’m the oldest). We hadn’t been mentally ready for her to go but in the last couple years just don’t want her to suffer. I think she is more prepared to leave us now and has commented a little on it when her speech allows.

I’m finding that through all of this I have grown a bit numb to all the negative emotions and feelings I once had daily. Although this start to hospice has brought back all the heavy feelings again. I don’t want to regret anything so have been spending as much time as possible with my Mom/family. I hope that on the other side of this we can all push through and be there for one another. I’m just really scared for this transition. Any advice would be appreciated

It’s been making a faint rattle for about a year now and saw someone else’s post recently about the invidia nameplate weld breaking. Instantly went to check and yep that’s the culprit

Now just gotta see about getting someone to weld it for me 🤔 I have a mig welder but it’s only set up for mild steel and don’t wanna deal with rust
