 Posted: 19:35 - 10 May 2012 Post subject: Show me your r6 bits? R6 2007 new toy :) |
 |
|
Hey all fingers crossed I will have a new toy arriving first week of June. Is up north so they delivering it with another job for me
It's a black 2007 R6 with red highlighting.
Is pretty much standard from new.
first year anniversary present! I Can't really just buy dinner now lol.
Got a list of things I want to do to make it different from stock and just subtle.
Want to put some Pazzo shorty levers on.
Tail tidy.
Frame sliders.
Black screen.
Stubby silencer.
Rear seat cowl.
Knee grips on tank etc.
Is there any decent places people would recommend that they have bought from before? Not bothered about bits being second hand though so if you know of stuff going for sale let me know.
Prefer the look of aftermarket exhausts and not the stock ones. Know the silencers don't have power gains but is only me preferring the look.
Seen the akrapovic megaphone they any good?
Always bought bikes with work already done before so is a novelty to make it my own now.
Feel free to post your photos up of any stuff you have done to your r6
Thanks all!! ____________________ A2 License...................Order of Wheels:

Silly question here but why don't you ride it first and then decide what mods to make? I've recently bought a Daytona and so far only identified a need for tank grips, an some time spent setting up the rear suspendion. That's it! ____________________ Triumph Daytona 675 track bike + girlfriend's Honda Hornet 600

maybe your present to her would be showing her your happiness buy using the money to buy yourself the above wishlist .
Also, an aftermarket can generally will create a slight power increase, generally between about 5-7bhp, but the exact test would be before & after Dyno's.
As for getting the parts, try the R6 Forum: https://www.r6-forum.com/,
always people getting rid of stuff cheaper on forums , will come in useful for any specific queries you may have too.

Slacker know what your saying and sounds sensible advice! Is more looks than functionality for me with this one
Haha love you thinking Mike! Doubt it would go down well though :/
Although.....on second thoughts.....
Thanks for heads up on the forum, totally forgot about that one, cheers  ____________________ A2 License...................Order of Wheels:
