  1. Mate did you get your new 2009 r6 on the yamaha 3.5 year 0% finance? I was wodnering whther I could get the red and white 2009 one (link above) on the finance. Cheers
  2. I think the blue is pretty standard and the black too but I have fallen in love with the 'racing red' colour scheme: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Mvhjidbvdzc/SMaV...1600-h/r6+1.jpg anyone else agree and think it's amazing?

    o8 r6

    check the post (buying a 2008 r6) below. I found th eintegrated tail light and flush mount front ones of ebay. The fronare by motrax and the rear by project r. the rear ones wont pass MOT. but the'yre plug and play so you can just switch back to normal fairly easily to pass the mot.
  4. Rear integrated tail light: for instance http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YAMAHA-YZF-R6-2008-2...id=p3286.c0.m14 and the flush mount fn ones are by motrax (these will pass MOT i think, but the rear ones won't) However the rear ones are 'plug and play' so I guess you could keep switching them around): http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Flushmount-LED-Indic...id=p3286.c0.m14 I think it'd make a whoel lot of difference to styling. Also a good deal on the Yamaha as mentoned earlier is the Georgwhite offer. 08 R6 for £7499 with ull leather race suite, shoei raid helmet, race boots, double bouble screen, micron slip on can, rear seat cover, front and rear stands, crash bungs, monster chain and s4 datatool alarm thrown in. I think it's also 0% yamaha finance.
  5. Also just one more thing. The guy on the phone from DK motorcycles said the £5999 2008 R6 are American imports. Saying the only difference is that the American R6's have reflectors on the wheels 'that just unbolt off.' Is there anything else should be aware about on the American R6? Thanks
  6. Yeah, just looked on DK motorcycles, they got the 08 r6 for £5999 new but its late 2007 colour schemes. Not the 08 colours (graphite/comp. white and blue) Ideally I wanted black with the black forks (08 graphite colour). But here they got black with gold forks. Still mechanically the same bike I guess, just think the gold forks look a tad tacky. Also any info on dealers that do the 0% finance would be useful. I'm looking at how I can pay for this badboy!
  7. Ok thanks for the info. I wasn't too sure about the upgrades I just thought it was colour schemes because they look the same. To be honest it'll be around Jan/Feb time until i'm able to buy one and even then i'll only have about 8 grand so not sure whether I'll have enough for the 09 model. Also it'll be my first bike so I don't want to go too wild and get an R1! Cheers,
  8. Hi guys, I'm thinking about buying a 2008 R6 in graphite (with the red logo) and just wanted to know the differences between 2008 and 2007/2006 models apart from the different colour schemes. Are there any engineering upgrades at all? Secondly when I do purchase one , what are the best options for removing the ugly indicators? I heard about some flush mount ones and an integrated rear light with indicators built in (all found on ebay). Any problems with MOT's, particularly with 'smoked' ones? Any help would be sweet, I can't wait to get an R6! Thanks
