sweet bike. The new r6's shouldn't even be considered "600's" There pretty dern quick!

I'm more of a honda man, I like the comfort better of there bikes. However yamaha definately has there number when it comes to power.

Be safe man. I'm a stickler on investing on the best riding gear and equipment.

Nice bike, be safe out there. If you see a black ZX-6R in the Little Rock area give me a wave.

Here's my free advice. Keep it under lock and key at all times. My GSX-R Sebben Fiddy got jacked by some punk(s) earlier this year.

I love the R6s and the GSXRs.

I hope you plan on removing that UGLY license plate set-up!

That's pretty cool. I may need to get a bike as they get the best parking spots on campus.

I know I'm going to fall into the bike scene one way or another. I watched a guy lay it down on the freeway at night, was a little slick out. All the cars stopped, the headlight on the bike was shining on him while he was on all fours, trying to stand up. He fell right back down, gave up. I tried to get over so my friend and I could help him up, everyone stayed in their cars with their headlights on him. Felt bad for the guy, not sure how well bikes fair in laydowns.

i sold my ohlins equipped limited edition r1 for my 06 cbr 1000rr-while the yamaha -since it had the ohlins setup] was superior suspension wise-motor wise it can't hold a candle to my cbr-i did a ti-force full titanium pipe and power commander-took it to 2 diffrent-dynos-160 rwhp on one-162 on the other-i should be close to the 9.99 ranghe in the 1/4-phil

How much is the bike payment and bike insurance per month? How much are you really saving over buying gas for the truck?
