this one nice too, however those KMs look suss considering the amount of work done?

Can't believe R6 prices when equivalent year and mileage R1s are only advertised at ~$1000 more...I couldn't buy one knowing that. Keep waiting for a real bargain or get an older R1 IMO.

I like the slightly lighter bikes, r6 still has 120-130hp although upon researching a little bit cbr600rr is meant to be a better bike little less power but doesn't rev as high(105hp), only weighs 154kg dry too which is less than r6

edit: cbr don't look as good for the 2007-09 ish ones, hate that dash on it too.. no cheaper than r6s either

I was looking at small bikes for a girl I'm seeing and am amazed at some of the weights. Thought my old Virago was light at 138kg - CBR125 = 115ish and Megelli 250R = 112.

Cliffs on girl please. Sms is ok

Which XR6 turbo? After all the hype about them, I was quite disappointed when I drove a standard BA...granted it had no air filter; air straight off the turbo LOL

You've seen her I think? The one who asked me out.

Yep...was thinking about swapping to third party, but with the way I ride, I may need the comp one day.

3 regos

2 full comps

fml

At one point I had three rego's and three comp. insurances. Man that was an expensive year.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
