    Why is no one talking about how cool the previous owner is? He seemed like a genuinely nice dude and he also seemed like he cared about the bike and maybe just didn't have the money to get it looking nice again so decided to sell it on.

      Yo that guy who sold the bike is such a nice dude ….. you can tell bike life might not have been for him but he sure sent it as much as he wanted to that’s why the r6 looked like it needed a new rider😅 bust my heart goes out to anyone who sells like that man…

      4th gens 2017-2021 introduced the throttle by wire modes, tcs and abs.
      3rd gens 2006-2016, were actually throttle by wire, they just didn't have any of the modes yet.
      2nd gens (R6 2003-2005/R6S 2006-2009) were throttle by cable.
      1st gens 1999-2002 was carbureted.

      @@Dirkadew how much do you want it to change dude? If you're barely gonna do a small incremental change just leave it as is, it's not worth it to create a whole new lineup of engine parts just to get 1.5hp more. Make the change when you're upgrading enough things to justify all the new parts

    I don’t understand how someone can tear a bike down to install new parts and NOT clean the bike first. First thing I do on every used bike I buy is strip it down and literally spend several days cleaning EVERYTHING on the bike before reassembly. Starting with a clean bike is like having a clean slate. Also makes it easy to spot any potential leaks on the motorcycle.

      Please, for the love of God, begin with a smaller CC bike, there are great options out there, even a simple Honda Grom, learn the basics, you will fall in the beginning but that is part of the fun, is way better to learn how to fall and how to properly drive on a smaller CC bike, and then grow from there, take your time, is waaay better this way trust me, I've been there, and seen a lot of riders that learn in a big bike then in a panic situation they do not know how to react and Crash

      No. You need an 08+ rear subframe and front fairing stay to fit the 08+ fairings on an 06/07 model.
      The 08+ models were actually quite heavily redesigned, the frame, brakes, fairings and electronics were all updated.

    why do so many of you guys buy a crotch rocket and not ride it the way it's supposed to be ridden?
    I mean you buy it and you lock your arms and basically "lion king" it.
    if you tucked more and rode it that way it would be a more comfortable ride. your arms won't be nearly as tired. your wrists won't hurt.
    if you wanna ride it upright like that, install modded handlebars or get a different bike.
