Well I had my R6 out over the weekend for the first time in a few months and took a couple of snaps of her.

Realised I hadn't uploaded any on here so thought why not!! Just wanted to show her off really

Shes just had a new front tyre and chain and sprockets, feels so much better. Loads smoother and dips into the turns much nicer now.

Here she is anyway

Only had her in end of August last year so really looking forward to this summer as I missed most of it last year.

Cheers Very Happy

Thanks Very Happy

Yeh wanna get a pipe etc but unfortunatly other things taking up all my money, my ktm being one Sad

Managed about 800 miles before I put her away for the winter but am still getting used to her tbh, so much fun. Fine when your moving along but slow stuff is tricky especially u-turns! The new front tyre seems to have made a hugh difference tho. Gonna start commuting on her again from tommorow, im sick to death of the work van ive been using over the winter.

What bike do you ride now then mate? What tempted you away from the R6?! Laughing

Lol yeh. It's great. I'm not sure why people fear 1000cc's but saying that I still need to learn to respect it. It will either eat me or my licence.
