gr8lite Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Thanks for having me ! I just started looking to possibly purchase a new FZ-07. I've been riding for many years ..... As recent as 5 years ago I was riding year round, I didn't even own a car or truck! I rode a bike all spring , summer , and fall then rode my sidecar rig all winter. Then about 2 years ago I started getting a pain in my left leg ... all the time. A quick trip to the Dr. he manipulated my legs .... by the time I rode 10 mins home I could barely get in the house and spent the next 10 days in bed , I mean in bed or on my knees beside it. I had with the help of the Dr. crushed my sciatic nerve! My riding was done , over , kaput ! I think the mental damage from quitting cold turkey was a much worse pain than the pain I felt in my leg! Fast forward 2 years to today , feeling much better........ ready to ride again ( I think). I had been looking at a NC700x , then stumbled across this FZ-07 thing.......... some more research to do but its a great looking bike. Hoping this may work ot , if so and I upgrade in a year or 2 my wife will prolly start running the FZ. Again thanks for having me ! I'll do my best to not be a bother ..........

jetgirl Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Welcome gr8lite! Maine is a beautiful state. That's too bad about your leg. I hope you're well enough to ride and good luck with whatever you choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted September 22, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted September 22, 2015 Hi @gr8lite, thanks for joining. Great to have you here. Sorry to hear about your leg. What a bummer. FZ07's are great to get back into the groove. Not only are they nice and light, that also grows with you if you know what I mean. If you take it easy, so will the bike, but it has a lot of potential too if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
