and I could see that I still had about half an inch of chicken strips where my tires just couldn't reach due to my footpegs restricting the lean angle.
How is this possible? I have no chicken strip on my rear tire and I *never* touch the peg feelers....but I have an 07...did they make some drastic change to the placement of the foot pegs???

To answer your question: I would go with #2 - Keep the FZ6 for the street and find another bike to use on the track.

I would try to find a 4-8 year old GSXR or CBR, and then start tracking it out...strip the mirrors, signals, lights, etc....
