Hey Ya'll,
 
New to the FZ-07 scene, as I just picked up my new bike this weekend! Previously owned a 2003 SV-650 which I loved, but was itching to get onto something new... So far, loving the new ride and can't wait to get out and put some miles on it.
 
Bought it up in Oregon @ Power Yamaha, and took a nice hike while we were up there. A lot of driving in two days though, I have to admit I'm not keen on doing it again soon haha.
 
Here are some photos from the trip and of the new bike. We took a great hike while we were up there!

Welcome! Already equipped with the Yoshi exhaust! Great hiking pics. Where were they taken?

Yeah! Came from the dealer that way. Saved me the trouble of installing so I was stoked! Sounds SO badass.
 
The hike was Silver Falls just 20 minutes or so away from where I got my bike. Really cool stuff - and the drive to the hike would have been awesome on the bike if it wasn't in the truck haha.

That's awesome. I mean, I've wanted to go to Oregon, but you've convinced me that I NEED to go.

It was pretty neat, not going to lie. I haven't been to Oregon since I was really young so everything was basically brand new again haha.
 
Although, it would be quite the trip from SoCal...if you split up the drive over a few days it probably wouldn't be too bad but if you wanted to jam up I wouldn't recommend doing it on a bike.
 
Either way though, very cool trip! Should definitely get up there and check it out.

Welcome to the forums! My parents in law reside in Reno and father in law rides, it'd be great to visit w/ the bike. If that ever happens you'll be getting a PM!

Let's go! I'm from Portland and have been trying to scheme a way to get my bike up there, the scenery up there is unparalleled. Camping trip all the way up on motorbikes.

Haha, snap. NOW THAT'S an adventure. Never camped with the bike... I think a smaller one should be underway before crossing all of CA. What do you think? But I want to go to PORTLANDDDDDD.

I got mine from Power also just before I moved back to Reno. What a coincidence. I wonder if there's any more on here in Reno?

Question ... if he switches panels for a different color will his bike suddenly become slower or will he become an outcast, only to have dust kicked up in his face and snickered at by passing reds? The universe teeters on this question.
