Excellent photos! I didn't manage to snap enough when I was there this year. Infact, I was up & over the Red Mountain pass 3 times this year.
You should have heard the kind words my wife had for me when going over in June. I'll set the scenerio: Cold (40 degrees), dark (11pm), raining. The end of a 700 mile day. She on her FZ6 loaded with her 3 Givi hardcases. Thank GOD I wired her handwarmers prior to the trip. I actually had to shut my Collett communicator off. It's hard to believe words like that could come from her sweet lips.
We actually laughed the next morning...when she stopped shivvering. LOL Oh, and it was the eve of her birthday also. Ya can't say I don't know how to treat a woman.

First of all, you are all welcome, and I'm glad y'all like the photos.
MrVvrroomm, sounds funny, but how tall is your wife and how does she like the FZ6?

She's 5' 4" and she loves her FZ6. As a point of reference, her touring bike prior to this was an '03 ZZR1200. She loved the power, but not the weight during slow speeds.
She doesn't mind stepping down a cog or two when she wants to go on the FZ6.
