Going to look at an R6. Owner says it has a slight cam chain rattle.

That vid is wank, take years to buffer.
How many miles are on the clock do you know?
Haven't watched all of it, but at 3.13 when he duck down and you hear the engine, doesn't sound too good.
IMO the engine shouldn't be stalling at 55 degrees, mines ticks over from cold at 40 with no choke fine.

Reading through a back-issue of RIDE last night and it had an R6 buyers guide in it. I can scan it in if you want but it did mention camchain rattles and the words AVOID alongside.

I may be arsed to scan it in later. Very Happy

This is mine starting from cold temp still below 40 with choke fully off at the end, although I do rev it a bit because I love the sound Smile

Unrelated, but it's missing it's mirrors.

EDIT-

Why would that cut out. It's leant over to the left which is the side of the fuel tap, if it was super low on fuel like he says in the clip then it wouldn't restart. Can you see a fuel light on the dash?

Course he might just have the idle speed set too low. Go and look at it to be sure.
