The FZ09 is an 850 triple, same as the MT09 in Europe. This MT07 looks like its little brother.

I just found this thread. I was going to start one.

I want a FZ-07 as a second bike. I love the sound of its 270 degree twin engine, has lots of power, less than 400 lbs wet, 55 in. wheelbase, etc. I've even considered trading the ST1300 for it but I would miss the ST. Don't know if I can float a second bike past my wife. (Again)

Lots of You Tube videos of the FZ in action, this helmet cam thing really is taking off.

$5K for one used locally.

Just picked up a leftover 2015 red FZ-07! That thing is FUN! Very light and flickable and great power. It sounds like a Ducati!

My ST will be getting less miles on her. She can use the rest.

250 Nighthawk was traded.

Pictures! I would love to have one as a second bike. Let us know what you think of the suspension and brakes. Those seem to generate the most comments.

Pictures...It took my whole family to send pics of the Nighthawk to the dealer for the trade.:rolleyes:

I think moto-journaralists are jaded. they keep riding the newest and best. The brakes are awesome, better than the ST. Suspension is fine, no problems for me.

Thought I'd update....Still love the FZ07! 8k+ miles on her, rear shock, stiffer front fork springs, heavier oil, bar risers, ECU flash, air box snorkel removed, LED headlight, think that's it.
Makes a great second bike to the ST1300, even take it out for mild off-roading.
