yo i love this paint work for the r6, i think its the best colour u can buy it in and when i pass my test i hope to buy it in the same colour! does rim tape come standard? anybody else think the r6 is a top bike?? i love it..

first i would change the lights inside so they was red cause that would look kick ass mean, then i would change the pipe and also get mini indactors. id also chnage the grips to red..

Changing the grips to red would spoil what is a great looking bike.

Yes. Very nice bike. Almost bought one in June when they were doing 0% finance deals. Thankfully I didn't. Smile

If it were my bike, I would leave it like that. Well, try to remove that red stripe around the front wheels and leave it at that. Is that standard or cheap, tacky rim tape?

Yes, because rim tape is the difference between and a good and bad looking bike.. Rolling Eyes

the R6 is a lovely bike. I think your priorities are somewhat up the spout though!

actually rim tape can make or break a bike, its amazing the difference a bit of rim tape can make to the looks of a bike.

Personally I think that R6 looks amazing. It is by far the best R6 colour. I had a sit on one at this years bike show and the matt paint and all the touches makes it look great.

BTW Greg what's wrong with matching leathers ? You know you'll be next Whistle

I do agree that model is stunning, paint jobs a cracker, just prefer black rims.

I've always thought R6's are great looking bikes, but I've heard they leave something to be desired, performance-wise. McGee for one bought one new and traded it in 2 weeks later.

man whats so bad about the performance then? its a bloody 600 for god sake! it aint the r1 but i think that would be way to quick for the likes of me! i would love to have a little go on an r6 tho.....(wink wink)

Why rev harder etc when you can get a GSXR or a ZX6R which will give you more from the same effort?

I'm clutching at straws here really, I don't have the experience to pass judgement, just going on what I heard. I'm sure if I rode an R6 it would make me cream anyway. Shocked
