Yep yep. I wear full gear to go buy chewing gums
But Dainese boots I just bought seem to be stolen from the front of my house (just got the shipping today according to UPS tracking) so that sucks I'm stuck with my lower ankle ones for a while |

I wasn't complaining...I was complimenting him/his bike! I asked for a picture of his bike? What is so bad about that! Maybe you should stop making fun of my lack of a motorcycle and go shoot yourself! People like you ruin other peoples lives just by making simple comments! You always tease me for no reason, it's becoming annoying!

Did you pay taxes on the original value of the r6 or the after trade-in value?

I have plenty of life, thank you very much! I don't think you have a life since all you do, is pick on a fifteen year old that you've never met.

He shoulda just helped me pay off my bike! lol
The brand new bikes are harder to ride this year man! The slightly older ones used to be a tiny bit easier to ride position wise even though they were heavy it seems like. My old GSXr's used to be more comfy too this new one is a bit less comfy! They made them so short now that you have to be way forward on your nuts lol The seats are higher too so it's harder to use the tank for all the support instead of your arms. I thought this would translate to an easier to ride bike with the shorter wheel base but it kinda makes it harder a bit to get a good position. Feels kinda funny I have a bit of getting used to it to do. the older GSXR and R6 I think has a slightly easier position because they were longer and the tanks were bigger. These newer ones feel a bit cramped compared to 2002-2005. PS don't worry about having no low end. These super sports are all about high end screaming rpm power. you ride them way up in the RPM. I'm starting to see why the 750 is an easier to ride bike than the 600. Less RPM for more power. Cruising around the twisties I don't even need to go above 8k with this thing. It's weird! Very nice low throaty tone though. I bet yours has that nice high pitched whine at high RPM and starts to lift front wheel. What does it redline at? 16k?

Yeah when I finally found a good position on the R6 while test-riding it my nuts were definitely giving me the "...seriously bro?" staredown.

I think the newer R6 has a wider but lower tank but I'm not sure. Wider for sure. Max noticed on mine ('07) compared to the new one he tested that my tank was a bit slimmer and I think a bit taller. I really don't know what else is different besides some styling and the "deltabox frame" on the new ones. I'm sure stuff has changed but I can't tell much from by looking. They look similar. On last tech day when we sat on bikes i found GSX-R to be the most comfortable out of GSXR, CBR, R6 and ZX. But yeah it seems they are all going for performance over comfort these days. I should really get used to making the bike scream. I shift pretty early at the moment cause it's still in the engine break in period. I know there's other views on engine break in but I went with the manual for this. I dunno hopefully it doesn't do much harm hahah. But yeah I love the sound at 10k. That's the max I went up to. It's hard to control myself. I told myself I would not go 8k+ before engine break in. It didn't happen! hahah. But yeah it redlines at 16k. |

Congrat's! I wanted to start with a CBR250R but ended up with a SpecialEdition; a lot less comfortable but a lot more powerful. Enjoying it? Have fun.

Looks like I will be buying a 06 r6 from a friend at the end of the month. It needs a bit of love here and there, but for the price its a steal. And yes... I am keeping both of my 250's.

That is one sik looking machine man! I can see why you traded up your Ninjette. I still ride my 250 and will do so for at least a year or so. I feel my Ninjette still has some things to teach me before moving up.
Congrats on your new bike! Ride Safe and ATGATT

Definitely keeping the Ninjette even after I upgrade to a bigger bike. Passing it on to my bro, and will use it for daily commuting. Not sure if I'll be getting an r6 though.

Appreciate the confidence!
600's are great if you have throttle control. In 2 months, you can very well put on my mileage/practice than some people who hate!

Dunno who would keep a Ninjette after riding an R6... maybe a masochist?
Gurk, have you figured out how to toss it around in corners? It seems to handle quite differently from Ninja in that respect... not that flickable. |
