hello all,as of today i've purchased a 2000 model R6 and the good thing about that for me is i'm finally back on 2 wheels after a lay off from september 2010. i had a kawasaki zx9r c model back then which i crashed on track which resulted in a broken arm.it never put me off but for financial reasons the bike had to go and i've not been able to afford one until now and i'm well pleased. there's a few issue's with the r6 so i'll be asking on here and hopefully get cracking with it,first issue is with the speedo so i'll get asking. :icon_biggrin:
